Disease-resistant varieties of Chinese cabbage ( L. ssp. ) inhibit infestation by stabilising root flora structure.

The application of disease-resistant varieties is the most cost-effective method for solving the problem of clubroot. "Shangpin," a disease-resistant variety of Chinese cabbage with broad-spectrum immunity to (), was screened in a previous study. Based on 16S rRNA sequencing technology, we annotated the compositional differences between the rhizosphere, rhizoplane, and endosphere bacterial communities of "Shangpin" and "83-1" under stress.

Duloxetine HCl Alleviates Asthma Symptoms by Regulating PI3K/AKT/mTOR and Nrf2/HO-1 Signaling Pathways.

Asthma is an inflammatory disease characterized by airway hyperresponsiveness, airway remodeling, and airway inflammation. In recent years, the prevalence of asthma has been increasing steadily and the pathogenesis of asthma varies from person to person. Due to poor compliance or resistance, existing drugs cannot achieve the desired therapeutic effect.

Two Tomato (S) Thaumatin-Like Protein Genes Confer Enhanced Resistance to Late Blight ().

Late blight (caused by ) poses a serious threat to tomato production but the number of late blight resistance genes isolated from tomato is limited, making resistance gene mining a high research priority. In this study, highly resistant CLN2037E and susceptible No. 5 tomato inbred lines were used to identify late blight resistance genes.

BrrICE1.1 is associated with putrescine synthesis through regulation of the arginine decarboxylase gene in freezing tolerance of turnip (Brassica rapa var. rapa).

Background: In the agricultural areas of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, temperature varies widely from day to night during the growing season, which makes the extreme temperature become one of the limiting factors of crop yield. Turnip (Brassica rapa var. rapa) is a traditional crop of Tibet grown in the Tibet Plateau, but its molecular and metabolic mechanisms of freezing tolerance are unclear.

Characterization of the DREBA4-Type Transcription Factor (SlDREBA4), Which Contributes to Heat Tolerance in Tomatoes.

Dehydration-responsive element binding (DREB) transcription factors play crucial regulatory roles in abiotic stress. The only DREB transcription factor in tomato (), SlDREBA4 (Accession No. MN197531), which was determined to be a DREBA4 subfamily member, was isolated from cv.

Expression profiles of glucosinolate biosynthetic genes in turnip (Brassica rapa var. rapa) at different developmental stages and effect of transformed flavin-containing monooxygenase genes on hairy root glucosinolate content.

Background: Glucosinolates (GSLs) are secondary metabolites, mainly existing in Brassica vegetables. Their breakdown products have health benefits and contribute to the distinctive taste of these vegetables. Because of their high value, there is a lot of interest in developing breeding strategies to increase the content of beneficial GSLs in Brassica species.

Genome-wide analysis of the callose enzyme families of fertile and sterile flower buds of the Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa L. ssp. pekinensis).

Callose is a β-1,3-glucan commonly found in higher plants that plays an important role in regulating plant pollen development. It is synthesized by glucan synthase-like (GSL) and is degraded by the enzyme endo-1,3-β-glucosidase. However, genome-wide analyses of callose GSL and endo-1,3-β-glucosidase enzymes in fertile and sterile flower buds of Chinese cabbage have not yet been reported.

SKIP is a component of the spliceosome linking alternative splicing and the circadian clock in Arabidopsis.

Circadian clocks generate endogenous rhythms in most organisms from cyanobacteria to humans and facilitate entrainment to environmental diurnal cycles, thus conferring a fitness advantage. Both transcriptional and posttranslational mechanisms are prominent in the basic network architecture of circadian systems. Posttranscriptional regulation, including mRNA processing, is emerging as a critical step for clock function.

A companion cell-dominant and developmentally regulated H3K4 demethylase controls flowering time in Arabidopsis via the repression of FLC expression.

Flowering time relies on the integration of intrinsic developmental cues and environmental signals. FLC and its downstream target FT are key players in the floral transition in Arabidopsis. Here, we characterized the expression pattern and function of JMJ18, a novel JmjC domain-containing histone H3K4 demethylase gene in Arabidopsis.

A G protein-coupled receptor is a plasma membrane receptor for the plant hormone abscisic acid.

The plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) regulates many physiological and developmental processes in plants. The mechanism of ABA perception at the cell surface is not understood. Here, we report that a G protein-coupled receptor genetically and physically interacts with the G protein alpha subunit GPA1 to mediate all known ABA responses in Arabidopsis.
