Aldehyde dehydrogenases (ALDHs) play a central role in detoxification processes of aldehydes generated in plants when exposed to the stressed conditions. In order to identify genes required for the stresses responses in the grass crop Zea mays, an ALDH (ZmALDH22A1) gene was isolated and

Tobacco leaves (Nicotiana tabacum var. Wisconsin 38) submitted to anaerobic conditions behave in a manner similar to that of maize, sugarcane, or sorghum leaves (C4-plants); more precisely, a lag time in O2 release is exhibited when the leaves are exposed to light after treatment in the dark under

Cotesia flavipes (Hymenoptera:Braconidae) is a gregarious endoparasitoid of several pyralid stemborer larvae of economic significance including the sugarcane borer, Diatraea saccharalis. In this study, the ability of this parasitoid to develop in a sphingid host, Manduca sexta, was tested. First,

Approximately 10-15% of plant nuclear genes appear to encode mitochondrial proteins that are directed to mitochondria by specific targeting signals. Reports on the heterologous function of these targeting signals are generally limited to one or a few species, with an emphasis on model plants such as

Background: Potyvirus-based virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) is used for knocking down the expression of a target gene in numerous plant species. Sugarcane mosaic virus (SCMV) is a monopartite, positive single strand RNA virus. Objectives: pBINTRA6 vector was modifi ed by inserting a gene segment

CONCLUSIONS Overexpression of SoSnRK2.1 improved drought tolerance and growth of tobacco plants. Sucrose non-fermenting1-related protein kinase 2 (SnRK2) is a key enzyme in regulating ABA signal transduction in plants, and it plays a significant role in response to multiple abiotic stresses. In this

In this study we cloned a chitinase gene (SmchiC), from Serratia marcescens isolated from the corpse of a Diatraea magnifactella lepidopteran, which is an important sugarcane pest. The chitinase gene SmchiC amplified from the S. marcescens genome was cloned into

BACKGROUND Drought is a major abiotic stress that affects crop productivity worldwide. Sugarcane can withstand periods of water scarcity during the final stage of culm maturation, during which sucrose accumulation occurs. Meanwhile, prolonged periods of drought can cause severe plant

MYB transcription factors are one of the most important mediators for the survival of plants under multiple stress responses. In the present study, EaMYB18, encoding a single R3 repeat MYB DNA binding domain was isolated from stress-tolerant wild relative species of sugarcane Erianthus
