Nonspecific lipid transfer proteins (LTPs) from plants are characterized by their ability to stimulate phospholipid transfer between membranes in vitro. However, because these proteins are generally located outside of the plasma membrane, it is unlikely that they have a similar role in vivo. As a step toward identifying the function of these proteins, one of several LTP genes from Arabidoposis ...

Mulberry (Morus, Moraceae) is an important economic plant that considered zinc-rich. Zinc (Zn) a micronutrient plays vital roles in various bio-processes plants and animals. In the present study, comparative transcriptome analysis associated with physiological indicators was performed to reveal potential mechanism different organs response zinc toxicity mulberry. Physiological mulberry treated ...

Abstract Studying plant early immunity, such as the unique immune mechanisms against pathogens, is an important field of research. Tomato wilt resulting from infection by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici ( Fol ) soil-borne vascular disease. In this study, we challenged tomato plants with for a time-course RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis. The result indicated that phenylpropanoid and flav...

Maize is the leading crop worldwide in terms of both planting area and total yields, but environmental stresses cause significant losses in productivity. Phenylpropanoid compounds play an important role in plant stress resistance; however, the mechanism of their synthesis is not fully understood, especially in regard to the expression and regulation of key genes. Phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PA...

Abstract Background Cadmium (Cd) pollution has brought harm to the growth and development of potato. Glutathione (GSH) is an important antioxidant that may play active role in response a potato Cd stress. However, how GSH influences effect on potatoes unknown. In this study, we investigated effects exogenous phenylpropanoid biosynthesis pathway plant hormone signal transduction under stress exp...

The biosynthetic costs of phenylpropanoid-derived condensed tannins (CTs) and phenolic glycosides (PGs) are substantial. However, despite reports of negative correlations between leaf phenolic content and growth of Populus, it remains unclear whether or how foliar biosynthesis of CT/PG interferes with tree growth. A comparison was made of carbon partitioning and N content in developmentally sta...

Phytophthora cinnamomi causes one of the most important diseases in avocado crop and its chemical management represents 25% production cost per year. Induction plant defense responses by elicitors is a promising strategy that compatible with sustainable agriculture. This study aimed to evaluate effect curdlan application on induction plants against P. cinnamomi. The trials were conducted under ...
