Allele mining of eukaryotic translation initiation factor genes in Prunus for the identification of new sources of resistance to sharka.

Summary

Scientists searched for genetic variations in translation initiation factors (eIF4E and eIFiso4E) in stone fruit trees to find alleles associated with resistance to the Plum pox virus (PPV). They identified new alleles in wild species that showed reduced susceptibility to PPV, potentially providing new sources of resistance.

Antioxidant Defenses in Plants with Attention to Prunus and Citrus spp.

Summary

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are by-products of oxidation/reduction reactions that can damage higher plant cells through oxidative stress. This review discusses enzymatic antioxidants, including superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and ascorbate peroxidase (APX), as well as non-enzymatic defenses like ascorbic acid, glutathione, flavonoids, carotenoids, and tocopherols that protect against ROS. The study explores the role of ROS scavenging systems during seasonal changes and developmental events like fruit ripening and senescence that impact fruit quality and highlights Prunus and Citrus species due to their nutritional and antioxidant properties. These findings help to understand the importance of antioxidants in protecting plants and their potential health benefits for humans.
