Using genomic DNA-based probe-selection to improve the sensitivity of high-density oligonucleotide arrays when applied to heterologous species [PDF]

, 2005
High-density oligonucleotide (oligo) arrays are a powerful tool for transcript profiling. Arrays based on GeneChip® technology are amongst the most widely used, although GeneChip® arrays are currently available for only a small number of plant and animal

Transcript correlation analysis for the identification of novel plant genes involved in iron metabolism and beyond: what next?

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Transcript correlation analysis allowed the identification of several key nodes in the complex regulatory network of plant iron metabolism. Abstract Arabidopsis thaliana was the first plant genome to be fully sequenced, almost a quarter of a century ago, thanks to The Arabidopsis Genome Initiative, with contributions from scientists worldwide.

Dual role of benzoxazinoids in plant response to combined drought stress and aphid feeding

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Benzoxazinoids enhance wheat's defence against aphids and drought stress by triggering callose accumulation, and MYB transcription factors regulate wheat stress response. Abstract Plants produce specialized metabolites like benzoxazinoids (BXDs) to survive adverse environmental conditions and deter herbivory, while insects have evolved mechanisms to ...

A complex recombination pattern in the genome of allotetraploid Brassica napus as revealed by a high-density genetic map.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Polyploidy plays a crucial role in plant evolution. Brassica napus (2n = 38, AACC), the most important oil crop in the Brassica genus, is an allotetraploid that originated through natural doubling of chromosomes after the hybridization of its progenitor ...

Harnessing Camalexin as a Sustainable and Ecofriendly Strategy to Control Harmful Phytopathogens

Plant Pathology, EarlyView.
We review camalexin, a natural antimicrobial from Brassicaceae plants, which shows broad‐spectrum pathogen control and potential as an ecofriendly crop protection agent, with challenges and future directions. ABSTRACT Camalexin is a natural phytoalexin found in the Brassicaceae family, which has shown antimicrobial activity against diverse microbial ...

Antimicrobial Activity of Glycoalkaloids From Solanum spp. and Their Potential for Control of Dickeya solani and Pectobacterium brasiliense

Plant Pathology, EarlyView.
Glycoalkaloids from Solanum spp. leaves inhibit the growth of Dickeya solani and Pectobacterium brasiliense, quorum‐sensing genes, pectinolytic activity, biofilm formation and increase cell death. ABSTRACT Bacterial pathogens such as Dickeya solani and Pectobacterium brasiliense pose a significant threat to global food security by affecting major crops

First Report of Genomic Regions Associated With White Leaf Spot Resistance in Brassica napus

Plant Pathology, EarlyView.
The first genomic regions associated with white leaf spot disease resistance (cotyledon and leaf resistance) in Brassica napus have been identified through a genome‐wide association study of 215 genotypes. ABSTRACT White leaf spot, caused by the fungal pathogen Neopseudocercosporella capsellae, is a re‐emerging disease of canola (Brassica napus), as ...

Influence of Cooking Methods on Glucosinolates and Isothiocyanates Content in Novel Cruciferous Foods

Foods, 2019
Brassica vegetables are of great interest due to their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity, being responsible for the glucosinolates (GLS) and their hydroxylated derivatives, the isothiocyanates (ITC).
