Tobacco arabinogalactan protein NtEPc can promote banana (Musa AAA) somatic embryogenesis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Banana is an important tropical fruit worldwide. Parthenocarpy and female sterility made it impossible to improve banana varieties through common hybridization. Genetic transformation for banana improvement is imperative. But the low rate that banana embryogenic callus was induced made the

The lectin from Musa paradisiaca binds with the capsid protein of tobacco mosaic virus and prevents viral infection.

Only registered users can translate articles

It has been demonstrated that the lectin from Musa paradisiaca (BanLec-1) could inhibit the cellular entry of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). In order to evaluate its effects on tobacco mosaic virus (TMV), the banlec-1 gene was cloned and transformed into Escherichia coli and tobacco,

Diversity among Ralstonia solanacearum strains isolated from the southeastern United States.

Only registered users can translate articles

This is the first comprehensive study of a collection of Ralstonia solanacearum strains from the southeastern United States to be characterized based on biovar, pathogenicity, hypersensitive reaction on tobacco, and phylogenetic analyses of the egl sequence. Rigorous phylogenetic analysis of the

Medicinal plants used for dogs in Trinidad and Tobago.

Only registered users can translate articles

This paper documents ethnoveterinary medicines used to treat dogs in Trinidad and Tobago. In 1995, a 4-stage process was used to conduct the research and document the ethnoveterinary practices. Twenty-eight ethnoveterinary respondents were identified using the school-essay method, which is a

ICTV Virus Taxonomy Profile: Caulimoviridae

Only registered users can translate articles

Caulimoviridae is a family of non-enveloped reverse-transcribing plant viruses with non-covalently closed circular dsDNA genomes of 7.1-9.8 kbp in the order Ortervirales. They infect a wide range of monocots and dicots. Some viruses cause economically important diseases of tropical and

Characterization of a novel plantain Asr gene, MpAsr, that is regulated in response to infection of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense and abiotic stresses.

Only registered users can translate articles

Asr (abscisic acid, stress, ripening induced) genes are typically upregulated by a wide range of factors, including drought, cold, salt, abscisic acid (ABA) and injury; in addition to plant responses to developmental and environmental signals. We isolated an Asr gene, MpAsr, from a suppression

First Report of Cucumber Mosaic Cucumovirus Subgroup 1 in South Africa, from Banana with Infectious Chlorosis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Cucumber mosaic cucumovirus (CMV) is the etiological agent of infectious chlorosis disease in bananas (Musa spp.). In South Africa, diagnosis of CMV on banana has been based only on symptoms (1). A Grande Naine (Cavendish, AAA) plant with typical infectious chlorosis disease was obtained from

Genetic repair of mutations in plant cell-free extracts directed by specific chimeric oligonucleotides.

Only registered users can translate articles

Chimeric oligonucleotides are synthetic molecules comprised of RNA and DNA bases assembled in a double hairpin conformation. These molecules have been shown to direct gene conversion events in mammalian cells and animals through a process involving at least one protein from the DNA mismatch repair

Banana Die-Back Virus - a New Virus Infecting Banana in Nigeria.

Only registered users can translate articles

Two viruses naturally infect Musa in Nigeria: banana streak badnavirus (BSV) and cucumber mosaic cucumovirus (CMV). During a recent field survey at Ibadan (Nigeria), some severely stunted banana plants (cv. Valery) were found that tested negative for CMV, banana bunchy-top virus, and BSV. The plants

Evolution and structural diversification of Nictaba-like lectin genes in food crops with a focus on soybean (Glycine max).

Only registered users can translate articles

The Nictaba family groups all proteins that show homology to Nictaba, the tobacco lectin. So far, Nictaba and an Arabidopsis thaliana homologue have been shown to be implicated in the plant stress response. The availability of more than 50 sequenced plant genomes provided the opportunity for a

Isolation and characterization of three cassava elongation factor 1 alpha (MeEF1A) promoters.

Only registered users can translate articles

In plant genetic engineering, the identification of gene promoters leading to particular expression patterns is crucial for the development of new genetically modified plant generations. This research was conducted in order to isolate and characterize several new promoters from cassava (Manihot

First Report of Cucumber mosaic virus in Banana from Iran.

Only registered users can translate articles

Banana bunchy top virus (BBTV), Banana streak virus (BSV), and Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) (genus Cucumovirus, family Bromoviridae [2]) cause widespread economic losses on banana (Musa sp.) throughout the world and have been reported on banana in different countries including Pakistan along its

Evaluation of vegetal extracts as biological herbi- and pesticides for their use in Cuban agriculture.

Only registered users can translate articles

The idea of an interuniversity project between the Universidad Central de Las Villas, Cuba and the University of Ghent, Belgium was conceived in order to improve the quality of the Cuban agriculture and to stimulate its independence from foreign chemical farm inputs, starting with an applied
