A cellulose binding domain protein restores female fertility when expressed in transgenic Bintje potato.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Expression of a gene encoding the family 1 cellulose binding domain protein CBD1, identified in the cellulosic cell wall of the potato late blight pathogen Phytophthora infestans, was tested in transgenic potato to determine if it had an influence on plant cell walls and resistance to

Suppression subtractive hybridization and comparative expression of a pore-forming toxin and glycosyl hydrolase genes in Rhizoctonia solani during potato sprout infection.

Only registered users can translate articles

Rhizoctonia solani is a plant pathogenic fungus that causes black scurf on tubers and stem and stolon canker on underground parts of potato plant. Early in the season, the fungus attacks germinating sprouts underground before they emerge from the soil. Damage at this stage results in delayed

Use of [C4mim]Cl for efficient extraction of caffeoylquinic acids from sweet potato leaves.

Only registered users can translate articles

Sweet potato, Ipomoea batatas, is a widely cultivated vegetable worldwide. The leaves contain polyphenolic natural products called caffeoylquinic acids (CQAs), which possess biological activities including inhibition of aggregation of amyloid peptides. The present study describes an efficient

Suberin Regulates the Production of Cellulolytic Enzymes in Streptomyces scabiei, the Causal Agent of Potato Common Scab.

Only registered users can translate articles

Suberin, a major constituent of the potato periderm, is known to promote the production of thaxtomins, the key virulence factors of the common scab-causing agent Streptomyces scabiei. In the present study, we speculated that suberin affected the production of glycosyl hydrolases, such as cellulases,

An Arabidopsis mutant resistant to thaxtomin A, a cellulose synthesis inhibitor from Streptomyces species.

Only registered users can translate articles

Thaxtomin A is a phytotoxin produced by Streptomyces scabies and other Streptomyces species, the causative agents of common scab disease in potato and other taproot crops. At nanomolar concentrations, thaxtomin causes dramatic cell swelling, reduced seedling growth, and inhibition of cellulose

Action of Azotobacter vinelandii poly-beta-D-mannuronic acid C-5-epimerase on synthetic D-glucuronans.

Only registered users can translate articles

Eleven different glucans (wheat starch, potato amylopectin, potato amylose, pullulan, alternan, regular comb dextran, alpha-cellulose, microcrystalline cellulose, CM-cellulose, chitin, and chitosan) that had their C-6 primary alcohol groups oxidized to carboxyl groups by reaction with

Combination cellulose plate (non-agar solid support) and agar plate method improves isolation of fungi from soil.

Only registered users can translate articles

This is the first report describing the improved isolation of common filamentous fungi via a method combining cellulose plate and agar plate system. A cellulose plate is a porous plate made of nanofibrous crystaline cellulose. Isolating fungi from soils using these types of media separately resulted

Purification and properties of Acid phosphatase-1 from a nematode resistant tomato cultivar.

Only registered users can translate articles

In tomato the acid phosphatase-1 isozyme (Apase-1) is inherited as a single locus linked to the nematode resistance gene (Mi). The Apase-1(1) electrophoretic variant has been purified from a tomato cell suspension culture using ion exchange and concanavalin A sepharose affinity chromatography. A

Reactive Oxygen Species Alleviate Cell Death Induced by Thaxtomin A in Arabidopsis thaliana Cell Cultures.

Only registered users can translate articles

Thaxtomin A (TA) is a cellulose biosynthesis inhibitor synthesized by the soil actinobacterium Streptomyces scabies, which is the main causal agent of potato common scab. TA is essential for the induction of scab lesions on potato tubers. When added to Arabidopsis thaliana cell

Structural motif screening reveals a novel, conserved carbohydrate-binding surface in the pathogenesis-related protein PR-5d.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Aromatic amino acids play a critical role in protein-glycan interactions. Clusters of surface aromatic residues and their features may therefore be useful in distinguishing glycan-binding sites as well as predicting novel glycan-binding proteins. In this work, a structural bioinformatics

Solanales Stem Biomechanical Properties Are Primarily Determined by Morphology Rather Than Internal Structural Anatomy and Cell Wall Composition

Only registered users can translate articles

Self-supporting plants and climbers exhibit differences in their structural and biomechanical properties. We hypothesized that such fundamental differences originate at the level of the material properties. In this study, we compared three non-woody members of the Solanales exhibiting different

Thaxtomin A production and virulence are controlled by several bld gene global regulators in Streptomyces scabies.

Only registered users can translate articles

Streptomyces scabies is the main causative agent of common scab disease, which leads to significant annual losses to potato growers worldwide. The main virulence factor produced by S. scabies is a phytotoxic secondary metabolite called thaxtomin A, which functions as a cellulose synthesis inhibitor.

Extracellular ATP in plants. Visualization, localization, and analysis of physiological significance in growth and signaling.

Only registered users can translate articles

Extracellular ATP (eATP) in animals is well documented and known to play an important role in cellular signaling (e.g. at the nerve synapse). The existence of eATP has been postulated in plants; however, there is no definitive experimental evidence for its presence or an explanation as to how such a
