Three classes of hemoglobins are required for optimal vegetative and reproductive growth of Lotus japonicus: genetic and biochemical characterization of LjGlb2-1
Legumes express two major types of hemoglobins, namely symbiotic (leghemoglobins) and non-symbiotic (phytoglobins), with the latter being categorized into three classes according to phylogeny and biochemistry. Using knockout ... -
Towards understanding of fungal biocontrol mechanisms of different yeasts antagonistic to Botrytis cinerea through exometabolomic analysis
There is increased interest in research on yeasts as potential phytopathogen biocontrol agents due to increasing restrictions in the use of chemical pesticides. Yeast strains from a range of genera and species have been ... -
The toxic guardians: multiple toxin-antitoxin systems provide stability, avoid deletions and maintain virulence genes of Pseudomonas syringae virulence plasmids
Background: Pseudomonas syringae is a y-proteobacterium causing economically relevant diseases in practically all cultivated plants. Most isolates of this pathogen contain native plasmids collectively carrying many ... -
Transcriptome metabolic characterization of tuber borchii SP1-A new spanish strain for in vitro studies of the bianchetto truffle
Truffles are ascomycete hypogeous fungi belonging to the Tuberaceae family of the Pezizales order that grow in ectomycorrhizal symbiosis with tree roots, and they are known for their peculiar aromas and flavors. The axenic ... -
Trichoderma as biocontrol agent against pests: new uses for a mycoparasite
Insects are the main pest in agricultural systems, causing significant losses in crop productivity and storage. During the last decades the control of pest insects has been carried out through the uncontrolled and massive ... -
Trichoderma hamatum increases productivity, glucosinolate content and antioxidant potential of different leafy Brassica vegetables
Brassica crops include important vegetables known as 'superfoods' due to the content of phytochemicals of great interest to human health, such as glucosinolates (GSLs) and antioxidant compounds. On the other hand, Trichoderma ... -
Tryptophan levels as a marker of auxins and nitric oxide signaling
The aromatic amino acid tryptophan is the main precursor for indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), which involves various parallel routes in plants, with indole-3-acetaldoxime (IAOx) being one of the most common intermediates. ... -
Two homologues of the global regulator Csr/Rsm redundantly control phaseolotoxin biosynthesis and virulence in the plant pathogen Pseudomonas amygdali pv. phaseolicola 1448A
The widely conserved Csr/Rsm (carbon storage regulator/repressor of stationary-phase metabolites) post-transcriptional regulatory system controls diverse phenotypes involved in bacterial pathogenicity and virulence. Here ... -
Unravelling the phytotoxic effects of glyphosate on sensitive and resistant Amaranthus Palmeri populations by GC-MS and LC-MS metabolic profiling
Glyphosate, the most successful herbicide in history, specifically inhibits the activity of the enzyme 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS; EC 2.5.1.19), one of the key enzymes in the shikimate pathway. ... -
The use of freshwater macrophytes as a resource in sustainable agriculture
Freshwater macrophytes include different groups of plants that are capable of growing in or very close to aquatic environments (spermatophytes, pteridophytes and bryophytes). These plants play a fundamental role in their ...
