ABSTRACT Transient expression of exogenous protein in Nicotiana benthamiana leaves via agroinfiltration offers a rapid and efficient platform for functional gene discovery and heterologous production of valuable eukaryotic proteins and metabolites. Though light quality is an important factor for plant photomorphogenesis, its impact on the efficiency of

Pseudomonas spp. vs. tumorigenic Rhizobium sp. – biocontrol of crown gall disease [PDF]
BACKGROUND Atypical Rhizobium sp. were identified as a causative agent of crown gall on rhododendron and blueberry in Germany. Considering the lack of efficient measures against crown gall disease, evaluation of innovative biocontrol measures would ...

Predation pressure varies vertically, with highest arthropod predation in the understory and highest bird predation in the canopy. Light availability differs across vertical strata, but predation patterns are more strongly influenced by height and forest structure than by light gradients.

Regulation of oncogene expression in T-DNA-transformed host plant cells. [PDF]
Virulent Agrobacterium tumefaciens strains integrate their T-DNA into the plant genome where the encoded agrobacterial oncogenes are expressed and cause crown gall disease.

Green shoot cuttings of 10 different grapevine species were inoculated with Agrobacterium vitis to find disease-related metabolites in the grapevine. Crown galls formed 60 days after inoculation varied in gall severity (GS) evaluated by gall incidence ...

Polθ‐mediated T‐DNA integration is a conserved mechanism across plant species
SUMMARY Agrobacterium‐mediated transformation remains the cornerstone of plant biotechnology, providing a versatile system for stable gene delivery and crop improvement. In Arabidopsis thaliana, DNA polymerase theta (Polθ) has been identified as a central factor mediating T‐DNA integration via theta‐mediated end joining (TMEJ).

Crown Gall Disease: Model of Carcinogenesis
T he use of a laboratory experiment that stimulates thought and also illustrates a concept is of benefit to a student. The experiment described in this paper can be used to stimulate students in two areas of biology. In introductory biology it can be used to investigate some aspects of abnormal growths (cancer) and in microbiology it provides the ...

We identify the long‐known virulence factor VirJ as a lysyl‐phosphatidylglycerol (L‐PG) hydrolase. Like the chromosomally encoded virulence factor AcvB, it prevents excessive accumulation of L‐PG in the membrane, thereby maintaining efficient T‐DNA transfer via the Type IV secretion system (T4SS) in Agrobacterium tumefaciens.

The impact of urbanisation on social behaviour: a comprehensive review
ABSTRACT Urbanisation is a key driver of global environmental change and presents animals with novel stressors and challenges. It can fundamentally influence social behaviour and has the potential to reshape within‐ and between‐species social interactions. Given the role of social behaviour in reproductive fitness and survival, understanding how social
