A primary goal of managing invasive aquatic plants is to selectively control the target plant without impacting more desirable plant species. A native plant of concern is wild rice ( Zizania palustris L.). Wild rice provides habitat for fish and wildlife, is a food source for waterfowl, and is utilized by humans as a cereal grain. The objective of this study was to examine the sensitivity of th...

Bacillus amyloliquefaciens is a plant-beneficial Gram-positive bacterium involved in suppressing soil-borne pathogens through the secretion of secondary metabolites and high rhizosphere competence. Biofilm formation is regarded as a prerequisite for high rhizosphere competence. In this work, we show that plant extracts affect the chemotaxis and biofilm formation of B. amyloliquefaciens SQY 162 ...

PURPOSE We previously demonstrated that the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway (UPP) is a general protein quality control system that selectively degrades damaged or abnormal lens proteins, including C-terminally truncated αA-crystallin. The objective of this work was to determine the effects of wt αA- and αB-crystallins on the degradation of C-terminally truncated αA-crystallin (αA(1-162)) and vice ...
