Yellow leaf curl disease caused by begomoviruses has emerged as a major limitation to the production of eggplant (Solanum melongena) in several regions world. Tomato yellow Kanchanaburi virus (TYLCKaV) is bipartite begomovirus isolated from diseased areas Indochinese peninsula, South China, and Maritime Southeast Asia. In this study, five species Indonesia, including TYLCKaV, were inoculated us...

Ilex dabieshanensis is not only an important ornamental plant, but can also be used to produce Kuding tea, owing its lipid-lowering and anti-inflammatory medicinal properties. The genetic transformation of I. currently difficult, which restricts functional gene studies molecular breeding research on this species. Virus-induced silencing (VIGS) a powerful tool for determining functions in plants...

The main goal of this study was to investigate the possibility of expressing recombinant protein of C-C chemokine ligand 21 (CCL21) in Solanum lycopersicum via agroinfiltration. CCL21 is a chemokine can be used for anti-metastatic of cancer cell lines. To examine the expression of CCL21 protein in S. lycopersicum, the construct of ccl21 was synthesized. This construct was cloned into pBI121 and...

Abstract Plant immunity is activated upon perception of pathogens and often affects growth when it constitutively active. It still a challenge to balance plant in disease resistance breeding. Here, we demonstrated that soybean ( Glycine max ) polyamine oxidase (GmPAO) confers multiple Phytophthora pathogens, but has no obvious adverse impact on agronomic traits. GmPAO produces H 2 O by oxidizin...

Zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV) causes serious damage to cucurbit crops worldwide and can be spread by aphids, mechanical injury, in seeds. With the popularization of grafting, use susceptible rootstock has increased risk ZYMV infection crops. In China, bottle gourd ( Lagenaria siceraria ) is a widely used grafted watermelon production. However, few resistant gourds are available commercial...
