Expression of two in planta induced genes of the biotrophic fungal tomato pathogen Cladosporium fulvum and accumulation of their products, extracellular proteins (ECPs), were studied in time and space during pathogenesis. Immunogold localization revealed that proteins ECP1 and ECP2 accumulated abundantly in extracellular material in the vicinity of fungal and host cell walls. Expression of the genes encoding ECP1 and ECP2 was studied in transformants carrying the reporter gene Gus fused to promoter sequences of the ecp genes. In germinated conidia on the leaf surface no expression of gene ecp1 and only low expression of gene ecp2 could be detected. Expression of both ecp1 and ecp2 was strongly induced during colonization of the intercellular space between tomato mesophyll cells. The highest expression was observed in hyphae growing near vascular tissue. Expression levels were low in newly formed conidia on leaves. Possible functions of ECP1 and ECP2 for C. fulvum during pathogenesis are discussed.

Two new energetic coordination compounds with 1D helical chain structures have been synthesized. First, the polyamine precursor 4,5-diamino-2-((4-amino-1,2,5-oxadiazole-3-yl)methyl)-2,4-dihydro-3-1,2,4-triazole-3-imino chloride salt () is obtained by incorporating 4-(chloromethyl)-1,2,5-oxadiazol-3-amine with 4-1,2,4-triazole-3,4,5-triamine. Using a simple hydrothermal method, two energetic complexes, Ag(TATAF)(ClO) () and Ag(TATAF)(NO)·HO (), with a helical 1D MOF structure of furazan and triazole were synthesized.

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of enzymatic hydrolysate of cottonseed protein (ECP) on the kinetic of gas production, rumen fermentation characteristics, and microbial diversity in continuous in vitro culture with a single factorial design of supplementation with various concentrations of ECP or yeast culture. Treatments were control (without supplementation, CON), supplementation with 10 g/kg Diamond-V XP yeast culture of substrate (XP), and supplementation with 6, 12 and 18 g/kg ECP of substrate (ECP1, ECP2, ECP3), each incubated with 30 mL of buffered incubation fluids and 200 mg of fermentation substrate in graduated glass syringes fitted with plungers for 48 h. Compared with the CON treatment, supplementation of XP yeast culture increased the cumulative gas production at 12 and 24 h, the concentration of ammonia nitrogen (NH3-N) concentration at 24 and 36 h, the concentration of microbial protein (MCP) concentration at 24 and 48 h, the molar butyrate proportion at 12, 24, and 48 h, the molar valerate proportion at 48 h, and the ratio of non-glucogenic to glucogenic acids (p < 0.

Enzymatic Chicken Pulp Promotes Appetite, Digestive Enzyme Activity, and Growth in .

Metabolites

July 2022

Laboratory of Aquatic Nutrition and Feed, College of Fisheries, Guangdong Ocean University, Zhanjiang 524088, China.

Enzymatic chicken pulp (ECP) is an animal protein source that has been proven to be of excellent nutritional content and good quality for the majority of aquatic organisms because of its quality protein, small peptides, palatability, vitamins, and minerals. An 8-week nutritional trial was conducted to assess the effects of an ECP-based diet on the growth performance, digestive enzyme activity, and gene mRNA expression of Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei). Fish soluble pulp (FSP) served as the control group while in the experimental groups, and ECPs with three protein contents were used to replace FSP in equal amounts, named ECP1, ECP2, and ECP3, respectively.

The energetic properties of multicomponent explosive materials can be altered for high detonation capabilities and minimized safety risk by changing their building components. We synthesized energetic coordination polymers (ECPs) using a 5,5'-bis(tetrazole)-1,1'-diolate linker and a ,-dimethylacetamide (DMA) solvent, together with Cu and Mn metal cations. The new compounds, and , contain two different types of 1D chain structures, straight and helical.
