Scientists analyzed 22 Jerusalem artichoke clones from Turkey, studying effects of clones and organs on biochemical parameters. They also investigated correlations between parameters and factors influencing dry matter in tubers, useful for lab decision-making.
A new virus, PpCMV, was found in a plant in China. It has a genome of 6384 nucleotides and contains two open reading frames. Phylogenetic analysis shows it is closely related to two other viruses. This is the first report of PpCMV's complete genome sequence in China.
This study investigates the potential of a hydroethanolic extract of L. to inhibit the growth of RT001 bacteria and its associated inflammation and cell death. Relevant for finding new medicines against multidrug-resistant infections.
In this study, researchers analyzed the gene involved in plant meristem formation and cold resistance. They isolated the gene from a winter cultivar and found that it plays a role in low-temperature tolerance. This information can be useful for improving cold resistance in winter crops.
Researchers constructed the pan-genome of three mango cultivars and identified a total of 47, 27, and 36 CC-NBS-LRR genes in each cultivar respectively. These genes play a role in defense mechanisms and are involved in multiple stress conditions, providing insights into the functional characteristics of the mango CNL gene family.
This study investigates the role of PEBP in regulating flowering time and morphogenesis in pineapple. It identifies 11 PEBP family members and explores their expression patterns. Overexpression of a specific gene resulted in early flowering, and potential flower regulators were identified. Valuable insights into pineapple flower development and guidance for future studies are provided.
Researchers investigated the defense mechanism of disease-resistant graft wax gourds against wilt diseases, which are a serious threat to wax gourd production. Understanding this mechanism can help in developing effective treatments for wilt and protecting crop yields.
Scientists sequenced the genomes of Rosa roxburghii and Rosa sterilis to understand their hybrid origin and absence of recent whole-genome duplications. They found that duplicated genes may contribute to flavonoid accumulation and identified key regulatory genes for ascorbate synthesis. Terpene synthase genes may be involved in terpenoid biosynthesis. This study sheds light on genome evolution and the molecular basis of high ascorbate concentration in these Rosa species.
