The cytochrome P450 gene, MdCYP716B1, is involved in regulating plant growth and anthracnose resistance in apple.

Apple is one of the main cultivated fruit trees worldwide. Both biotic and abiotic stresses, especially fungal diseases, have serious effects on the growth and fruit quality of apples. Cytochrome P450, the largest protein family in plants, is critical for plant growth and stress responses.

Exploring Public Response to COVID-19 on Weibo with LDA Topic Modeling and Sentiment Analysis.

It is necessary and important to understand public responses to crises, including disease outbreaks. Traditionally, surveys have played an essential role in collecting public opinion, while nowadays, with the increasing popularity of social media, mining social media data serves as another popular tool in opinion mining research. To understand the public response to COVID-19 on Weibo, this research collects 719,570 Weibo posts through a web crawler and analyzes the data with text mining techniques, including Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) topic modeling and sentiment analysis.

MdHAL3, a 4'-phosphopantothenoylcysteine decarboxylase, is involved in the salt tolerance of autotetraploid apple.

MdHAL3 has PPCDC activity and is involved in the salt tolerance of autotetraploid apple. Apple (Malus × domestica) is the most widely planted fruit tree species worldwide. However, the growth and development of apple have been increasingly affected by abiotic stress, such as high salinity.

MdWRKY100 encodes a group I WRKY transcription factor in Malus domestica that positively regulates resistance to Colletotrichum gloeosporioides infection.

Apple (Malus domestica) is an important fruit worldwide; however, the development of the apple industry is limited by fungal disease. Apple bitter rot caused by the pathogen Colletotrichum gloeosporioides is one of the most devastating apple diseases, leading to large-scale losses in apple quality and production. WRKY transcription factors have important functions in the regulation of biotic and abiotic stresses.
