Is there a Relationship between the Level of Plant Metabolites in Cucumber and Globe Cucumber and the Degree of Insect Infestation?

Notulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca, 2009
Cucumber plant was infested by three major insect pests, i.e., cotton aphid, white fly nymph and green bugs while globe cucumber, the wild cucumber species was kept healthy without any remarkable infestation. In addition, globe cucumber had higher ratios

Inter- and Intramolecular recombinations in the Cucumber Mosaic Virus genome related to adaptation to Alstroemeria

, 2002
In four distinct alstroemeria-infecting cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) isolates, additional sequences of various lengths were present in the 3' nontranslated regions of their RNAs 2 and 3, apparently the result of intra- and intermolecular recombination ...

Variation in herbivory-induced volatiles among cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) varieties has consequences for the attraction of carnivorous natural enemies [PDF]

, 2011
In response to herbivory by arthropods, plants emit herbivory-induced volatiles that attract carnivorous enemies of the inducing herbivores. Here, we compared the attractiveness of eight cucumber varieties (Cucumis sativus L.) to Phytoseiulus persimilis ...

Integration of ATAC-seq and RNA-seq unveils transcription factors involved in low-nitrogen tolerance in cucumber

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionNitrogen (N) availability is one of the major factors limiting cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) growth and productivity. However, the hierarchical transcriptional and chromatin-based mechanisms underlying low-nitrogen (LN) adaptation remain ...

Study on Composition and Antioxidant Properties of Sea Cucumber Peptides Prepared by Internal and External Enzymes

Shipin gongye ke-ji, 2022
In order to compare the composition and antioxidant properties of sea cucumber peptides prepared by different methods, sea cucumber peptides were prepared by endogenous enzyme (sea cucumber autolysis) and compared with those prepared by exogenous enzyme (

GWAS and RNA-seq reveal novel loci and genes of low-nitrogen tolerance in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.)

Frontiers in Plant Science
Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.), a globally significant horticultural crop, requires substantial nitrogen inputs due to its high nutrient demand. However, the prevalent issues of low nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) in cultivars and excessive fertilizer ...

Tracking nitrogen losses in a greenhouse crop rotation experiment in North China using the EU-Rotate_N simulation model [PDF]

, 2010
Vegetable production in China is associated with high inputs of nitrogen, posing a risk of losses to the environment. Organic matter mineralisation is a considerable source of nitrogen (N) which is hard to quantify.
