Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sugar crops, including but not limited to sugarcane, sugar beet, sweet sorghum and stevia, are major sources of sugar production in the world. However, conventional breeding approaches, limited by long breeding cycles, low efficiency and restricted capacity to improve complex traits in sugar crops, are increasingly insufficient to address the ...

Activités des chitinases gastriques de reptiles en fonction du ph [PDF]
, 1973 peer reviewedL'activité des chitinases gastriques de deux espèces de reptiles, Lacerta viridis et Clemmys caspica, a été mesurée en fonction du pH suivant une méthode évitant l'interférence possible entre la réaction des chitinases et celle de la ...

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Neutrophils as a Source of Chitinases and Chitinase-Like Proteins in Type 2 Diabetes
PLOS ONE, 2015 The pathophysiological role of human chitinases and chitinase-like proteins (CLPs) is not fully understood. We aimed to determine the levels of neutrophil-derived chitotriosidase (CHIT1), acidic mammalian chitinase (AMCase) and chitinase 3-like protein 1 (YKL-40) in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and verify their association with metabolic and ...

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Mycorrhizal symbiosis shapes plant growth and stress resilience. Here, we compared physiological and molecular responses of poplars (P. x canescens) colonised by Paxillus involutus (Pi) or Cenococcum geophilum (Cg) under control conditions, drought stress and recovery.

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2006 Early basal resistance (EBR, formerly known as early induced resistance) is triggered by general bacterial elicitors. EBR has been suggested to inhibit or retard expression of the type III secretion system of pathogenic bacteria and may also prevent ...

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Little is known about regulatory mechanisms that crop plants use to respond to combinations of abiotic and biotic stress. We analysed four barley genotypes under simultaneous Fusarium culmorum infection and drought stress by phenotyping for Fusarium Head Blight (FHB) disease, drought stress responses, hormone profiling and transcriptome ...

Ecological functioning of bacterial chitinases in soil
, 2015 Chitin is the second most abundant polymer in nature. In aquatic ecosystems, chitin is mainly present as part of the exoskeleton of arthropods; in soil, chitin is mainly present as component of fungal cell walls.

Arabidopsis chitinases : a genomic survey
, 2002 Plant chitinases belong to relatively large gene families subdivided in classes that suggest class-specific functions. They are commonly induced upon the attack of pathogens and by various sources of stress, which led to associating them with plant ...
