Yam (Dioscorea spp., family Dioscoreaceae) is one of the most important food crops cultivated in the West African yam zone comprising the forest and savannah areas of Nigeria, Ghana, Côte d'Ivoire, Republic of Benin, and Togo, which account for more than 90% of the 4.59 million ha of yam cultivation

Three types of mutation were introduced into the sequence encoding the GDD motif of the putative replicase component of potato virus X (PVX). All three mutations rendered the viral genome completely noninfectious when inoculated into Nicotiana clevelandii or into protoplasts of Nicotiana tabacum

Nicotiana benthamiana was transformed with P1 or VPg cistron of Potato virus A (PVA, genus Potyvirus). For both transgenes, T1 progeny displayed (i) resistance to PVA infection, (ii) susceptibility, or (iii) systemic infection followed by recovery of new leaves from PVA infection (RC), regardless of

Objective The aims of the present study were to explore the beliefs of Australian experts in tobacco control and change champions working in mental health and tobacco cessation, and to identify measures for addressing the problem of high smoking rates for people with mental illness. Methods

Thrips-transmitted tospoviruses are economically important viruses affecting a wide range of field and horticultural crops worldwide. Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) is the type member of the Tospovirus genus with a broad host range of more than 900 plant species. Interactions between these viruses

BACKGROUND Furanocoumarins are molecules with proven therapeutic properties and are produced in only a small number of medicinal plant species such as Ruta graveolens. In vivo, these molecules play a protective role against phytophageous insect attack. Furanocoumarins are members of the

The gene (cp) encoding the coat protein (CP) of cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) strain WL (CMV-WL, which belongs to CMV subgroup II) was custom polymerase chain reaction (CPCR)-engineered for expression as described by Slightom [Gene 100 (1991) 251-255]. CPCR amplification was used to add 5'- and

We report the purification of hydroxycinnamoyl-CoA:tyramine N-(hydroxycinnamoyl)transferase (THT) to apparent homogeneity in 12% yield from tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Xanthi) cell-suspension cultures elicited with a commercial preparation of pronase. The purification procedure employs only

Production of structural proteins from foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) and bovine herpes virus (BHV-1) in Nicotiana benthamiana through the use of a tobacco mosaic virus-based vector (TMV-30B) has been reported previously. The development of the TMV-30B-HISc vector, a new version that adds a

Recovery of plants from virus-induced symptoms is often described as a consequence of RNA silencing, an antiviral defense mechanism. For example, recovery of Nicotiana clevelandii from a nepovirus (tomato black ring virus) is associated with a decreased viral RNA concentration and sequence-specific

We present two cases of rare human poisoning in one family following ingestion of cooked leaves from the tobacco tree plant, Nicotiana glauca. The toxic principle of N. glauca, anabasine (C10H14N2), is a small pyridine alkaloid, similar in both structure and effects to nicotine, but appears to be

Lamium maculatum L. (spotted dead-nettle) is a flowering perennial ornamental that is commonly grown as a landscape plant for an effective ground cover. In June 2010, severe mosaic accompanied by reddish brown necrosis and leaf deformation was noticed on 80% of L. maculatum growing in shade under

Regulating nucleo-cytoplasmic transport of RNA and protein is a key cellular control point. Perturbing the function of plant nuclear transport components can cause significant developmental defects and in this report we add an important line to this evidence. Overexpression of AtRAN1 or AtNUP62 in

Mounting evidence is merging to affirm the effectiveness of bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) as biological control agents, inducers of innate immunity, and to stimulate/potentiate the development of defense responses in plants through protein phosphorylation-mediated signal

BACKGROUND Antibodies for human clinical applications are predominantly produced in mammalian expression systems, with Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells being the gold standard. CHO cells are ideal for the manufacturing of the IgG class of antibodies, but not for the production of complex antibodies
