In this study, the function of a non-ribosomal peptide synthetase-like (NRPS-like) encoding gene AOL_s00188g306 ( g306 ) was investigated to reveal association between NRPS and nematocidal activity in nematode-trapping fungus Arthrobotrys oligospora . Sequence analysis indicated that encoded product is an adenylation domain synthetases extended short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase domain-contain...

Several cellulose-hydrolysis enzymes are required for eco-friendly utilization of cellulose as renewable biomass, and it would therefore be beneficial if fermenting microbes can provide such without genetic engineering. Thermotolerant multisugar-fermenting Kluyveromyces marxianus is one the promising yeasts high-temperature fermentation has genes putative oligosaccharide-degradation enzymes. Mu...

Mutagenesis is an important tool for breeding and genomic research. In this study, the germinated seeds isolated microspores of a double haploid line ‘FT’ were treated with EMS, respectively, aim comparing effects two approaches on generating mutants in Chinese cabbage. For microspore EMS mutagenesis, 0.12% 20 min, total 1268 plantlets obtained, 15 M1 screened mutation frequency 1.2%. seed 7800...

Cytochrome P450 (CYP74) family members participate in the generation of oxylipins and play essential roles plant adaptation. However, metabolic reprogramming mediated by CYP74s under cold stress remains largely unexplored. Herein, we report how cold-triggered OsHPL1, a member CYP74 family, modulates rice metabolism. Cold significantly induced expression OsHPL1 accumulation OPDA (12-oxo-phytodie...
