Role of polyisoprenoids in tobacco resistance against biotic stresses

Physiologia Plantarum, 2009
Infection with avirulent pathogens, tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) orPseudomonas syringaepv. tabaci induced accumulation of polyisoprenoid alcohols, solanesol and a family of polyprenols [from polyprenol composed of 14 isoprene units (Pren‐14) to ‐18, with Pren‐16 dominating] in the leaves of resistant tobacco plantsNicotiana tabacumcv. Samsun NN. Upon TMV

Genomic Designing for Biotic Stress Resistant Cocoa Tree

2022
Cocoa tree (Theobroma cacao L.) is cultivated mainly in tropical regions and produces beans that are used for chocolate manufacture. Worldwide, cocoa bean production is threatened by biotic stresses, mainly fungus, oomycetes, virus and other pests. The understanding of the determinism of the plant-pathogen interactions as well as the different and ...

Genomics Approaches to Biotic Stress Resistance

2016
Sorghum productivity around the world is influenced by a wide array of biotic and abiotic constraints, some of which cause significant economic losses. Great efforts have been made in the past to improve plant resistance to biotic stresses such as insect pests, diseases, and parasitic weeds through breeding and genetic engineering.

Biotic Resistance of Soil to Plant Pathogens

1991
ABSTRACT Work is reported on the effect of thinning in a young Scotch pine stand on two root pathogens ( Heterobasidion annosum and Armillaria obscura ) in connection with the phenomenon of biotic resistance of soil to plant pathogens.

Breeding wheat for resistance to biotic stresses

Euphytica, 1997
Although common wheat and durum may be attacked by a large number of diseases and pests, less than 20 diseases and about five insect or mite pests are of major significance. Some of these have a global distribution and occur in most wheat-growing areas, whereas others are restricted to certain geographic regions or climatic zones.

Biotic stress resistance in agriculture through antimicrobial peptides

Peptides, 2012
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are the hosts' defense molecules against microbial pathogens and gaining extensive research attention worldwide. These have been reported to play vital role of host innate immunity in response to microbial challenges. AMPs can be used as a natural antibiotic as an alternative of their chemical counterpart for protection of

Scion Breeding for Resistance to Biotic Stresses

2019
The majority of grapevine cultivars used for wine, table grape and dried-fruit production are derived from the Eurasian grape species Vitis vinifera because of its superior aroma and flavour characteristics. However, this species has little or no genetic resistance against the major pests and pathogens that attack above-ground parts of the grapevine ...

Biotic resistance to invasions in microbial communities

2017
Invasion is an emerging but rapidly growing area of research in microbial ecology, with most studies focussing on the topic of biotic resistance. Biotic resistance is the ability of a native community to keep out invading species, and is usually explored through the lens of a diversity-functioning type rela- tionship.

Improving alfalfa resistance to biotic stresses

2013
Drought, salinity and winter cold are the main abiotic stresses that limit alfalfa yields. Greater drought tolerance can be provided by different adaptive traits, and may be difficult to combine with adaptation to water-favourable environments. Breeding for tolerance to drought or salinity could largely rely on landrace genetic resources and managed ...
