Two-Sex Life Table Analysis of Frankliniella intonsa Reared on Nine Different Vegetable Crops in Guangxi, China

open access: yesAgriculture
Frankliniella intonsa (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) is a polyphagous pest that causes significant economic agricultural losses by damaging flowers, vegetables, and fruit trees. We performed an age-stage two-sex life table analysis to evaluate the performance

Hybridization, polyploidy, and evolutionary transitions between monoecy and dioecy in Bryonia (Cucurbitaceae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Correns’s 1903 (Berichte der Deutschen Botanischen Gesellschaft 21: 133 – 147) crosses between a monoecious and a dioecious species of Bryonia revealed the simple Mendelian inheritance of dioecy and provided the first instance of an XY sex determination ...

Mutational analysis of the carbohydrate binding activity of the tobacco lectin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
At present the three-dimensional structure of the tobacco lectin, further referred to as Nictaba, and its carbohydrate-binding site are unresolved. In this paper, we propose a three-dimensional model for the Nictaba domain based on the homology between ...

Phylogenetics of Cucumis (Cucurbitaceae): Cucumber (C. sativus) belongs in an Asian/Australian clade far from melon (C. melo) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Background Melon, Cucumis melo, and cucumber, C. sativus, are among the most widely cultivated crops worldwide. Cucumis, as traditionally conceived, is geographically centered in Africa, with C. sativus and C.

A Near Telomere‐to‐Telomere Genome of Belamcanda chinensis Provides Insights Into Genome Evolution and the Biosynthesis of Characteristic Isoflavones

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Belamcanda chinensis is a non‐leguminous medicinal plant rich in bioactive isoflavones; however, the lack of a high‐quality reference genome has limited elucidation of its isoflavone biosynthetic and modification network. Here, we present the first near telomere‐to‐telomere genome assembly of B.

Distinctive Patterns of Flavonoid Biosynthesis in Roots and Nodules of Datisca glomerata and Medicago spp. Revealed by Metabolomic and Gene Expression Profiles

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Plants within the Nitrogen-fixing Clade (NFC) of Angiosperms form root nodule symbioses with nitrogen-fixing bacteria. Actinorhizal plants (in Cucurbitales, Fagales, Rosales) form symbioses with the actinobacteria Frankia while legumes (Fabales) form ...

An AFLP marker linked to the Pm-1 gene that confers resistance to Podosphaera xanthii race 1 in Cucumis melo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Brazil produced 330,000 metric tons of melons in 2005, principally in the Northeast region where one of the most important melon pathogens is the powdery mildew fungus Podosphaera xanthii. The disease is controlled mainly by incorporating single dominant

Chromosome‐Level Genome and Organ‐Specific Transcriptome of Alnus glutinosa Uncover Lineage‐Specific Innovations in Root Nodule Symbiosis

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alnus glutinosa is one of only three lineages within the order Fagales capable of establishing root nodule symbiosis (RNS). Although a fragmented genome assembly of A. glutinosa was previously available, its limited quality, combined with the lack of comprehensive transcriptomic resources, has constrained in‐depth comparative and functional ...

Candidatus Frankia Datiscae Dg1, the Actinobacterial Microsymbiont of Datisca glomerata, Expresses the Canonical nod Genes nodABC in Symbiosis with Its Host Plant.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Frankia strains are nitrogen-fixing soil actinobacteria that can form root symbioses with actinorhizal plants. Phylogenetically, symbiotic frankiae can be divided into three clusters, and this division also corresponds to host specificity groups.
