(Wiley, 2020-10)The aggressive Eucalyptus leaf pathogen, Teratosphaeria destructans, causes widespread damage in tropical and subtropical Eucalyptus‐growing regions of Indonesia, China, Thailand, East Timor, Vietnam, Lao, and South Africa. ...
-
(Springer, 2019-08)Avocado (Persea americana) is an important tropical and subtropical fruit tree crop. Traditional tree breeding programs face the challenges of long generation times and significant expense in land and personnel resources. ...
-
(Nature Research, 2019-08)Regulation of seed development by small non-coding RNAs (sRNAs) is an important mechanism controlling a crucial phase of the life cycle of seed plants. In this work, sRNAs from seed tissues (zygotic embryos and megagametophytes) ...
-
Functional annotation of putative QTL associated with black tea quality and drought tolerance traits (Nature Research, 2019-02)The understanding of black tea quality and percent relative water content (%RWC) traits in tea (Camellia sinensis) by a quantitative trait loci (QTL) approach can be useful in elucidation and identification of candidate ...
-
(Nature Publishing Group, 2019-09)Since the end of the Cold War, the practice of defence diplomacy has received much attention, as has the proactive prevention of conflict. However, the preventive diplomacy of defence forces – something that is implied ...
-
(Oxford University Press, 2019)BACKGROUND : The expanding world population is expected to double the worldwide demand for food by 2050. Eighty-eight percent of countries currently face a serious burden of malnutrition, especially in Africa and south ...
-
(Public Library of Science, 2019-02)Rosellinia necatrix is the causal agent of avocado white root rot (WRR). Control of this soilborne disease is difficult, and the use of tolerant rootstocks may present an effective method to lessen its impact. To date, ...
-
(National Herbarium of the Netherlands, 2019-06)Mycoleptodiscus includes plant pathogens, animal opportunists, saprobic and endophytic fungi. The present study presents the first molecular phylogeny and revision of the genus based on four loci, including ITS, LSU, ...
-
(National Herbarium of the Netherlands, 2019-06)Ips typographus (Coleoptera, Scolytinae) is a spruce-infesting bark beetle that occurs throughout Europe and Asia. The beetle can cause considerable damage, especially when colonized trees are stressed and beetle populations ...
-
(Public Library of Science, 2019-07)Rabies is a neglected disease mostly affecting the developing world. Accurate and reliable diagnostic and surveillance data forms the foundation for the formulation and monitoring of control strategies. Although various ...
-
(Oxford University Press, 2019-07)Woodiness (secondary xylemderived from vascular cambium) has been gained and lostmultiple times in the angiosperms, but has been lost ancestrally in all monocots. Here, we investigate the conservation of genes involved ...
-
(MDPI Publishing, 2019-05)Sexual reproduction in filamentous ascomycete fungi results in the production of highly specialized sexual tissues, which arise from relatively simple, vegetative mycelia. This conversion takes place after the recognition ...
-
Distribution and evolution of nonribosomal peptide synthetase gene clusters in the Ceratocystidaceae (MDPI Publishing, 2019-04-30)In filamentous fungi, genes in secondary metabolite biosynthetic pathways are generally clustered. In the case of those pathways involved in nonribosomal peptide production, a nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) gene ...
-
(Bentham Science, 2019-07)BACKGROUND : Peptide-based therapeutics offer a unique avenue for the development of novel agents for the treatment of diabetes mellitus including α-glucosidase inhibitors. The peptide, SQSPA, was reported to possess to α ...
-
(Frontiers Media, 2019-02-05)Virgilia divaricata is a tree legume that grows in the Cape Floristic Region (CFA) in poor nutrient soils. A comparison between high and low phosphate growth conditions between roots and nodules was conducted and evaluated ...
-
(Frontiers Media, 2019-06-20)Fast-growing forest plantations are sustainable feedstocks of plant biomass that can serve as alternatives to fossil carbon resources for materials, chemicals, and energy. Their ability to efficiently harvest light energy ...
-
(Frontiers Media, 2019-02-13)The NONEXPRESSOR OF PATHOGENESIS-RELATED GENES 1 (NPR1) and related NPR1-like proteins are a functionally similar, yet surprisingly diverse family of transcription co-factors. Initially, NPR1 in Arabidopsis was identified ...
-
(Frontiers Media, 2019-03-29)In recent years, forests have been exposed to an unprecedented rise in pests and pathogens. This, coupled with the added challenge of climate change, renders forest plantation stock vulnerable to attack and severely limits ...
-
(Frontiers Media, 2019-11-15)Bacillus velezensis strains are applied as ecologically safe biopesticides, plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), and in veterinary probiotics. They are abundant in various environments including soil, plants, ...
-
(Frontiers Media, 2019-05-14)Hot desert surface soils are characterized by extremely low water activities for large parts of any annual cycle. It is widely assumed that microbial processes in such soils are very limited. Here we present the first ...
