Reaction of corn lines to bacterial leaf streak [PDF]

Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira
The objective of this work was to select experimental corn lines genetically resistant to the bacterial leaf streak caused by Xanthomonas vasicola pv. vasculorum, in two growing seasons. The treatments were carried out in an experimental randomized block

An intracellular transporter mitigates the CO2‐induced decline in iron content in Arabidopsis shoots

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study identifies a gene encoding a transmembrane protein, MIC, which contributes to the reduction of shoot Fe content observed in plants under elevated CO2. MIC is a putative Fe transporter localized to the Golgi and endosomal compartments. Its post‐translational regulation in roots may represent a potential target for improving plant nutrition ...

The influence of glutathione metabolism on alkaline adaptation of Amur ide (Leuciscus waleckii) and potential role of gut microbiota

Animal Microbiome
Amur ide (Leuciscus waleckii), which inhabits Lake Dali, a soda lake in Northeast China with extremely high alkalinity (~ 53.57 mmol/L) and pH value (~ 9.6), is considered to be an ideal model for elucidating alkaline adaption mechanisms.

Histological and transcriptome analysis uncover a robust early PTI and ETI-associated immune response in Musa acuminata subsp. burmannica accession ‘Calcutta 4’ to Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense Subtropical Race 4

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionBanana (Musa spp.) is a globally significant crop and a staple food in the diet of millions of people. However, commercial cultivars are highly susceptible to Fusarium wilt, a devastating disease caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp.

The pmrCAB Operon Mediates Polymyxin Resistance In Acinetobacter Baumannii ATCC 17978 And Clinical Isolates Through Phosphoethanolamine Modification Of Lipid A [PDF]

, 2011
The emergence of multidrug resistance among Acinetobacter baumannii is leading to an increasing dependence on the use of polymyxins as last-hope antibiotics. Here, we utilized genetic and biochemical methods to define the involvement of the pmrCAB operon

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only

Genetics of multidrug resistance. [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 1988
Despite major advances in the treatment of cancer, resistance to multiple chemotherapeutic agents remains a major cause of treatment failure. Some tumors are initially resistant to many ofthe most active antineoplastic agents. Other tumors that are initially sensitive to cytotoxic agents often recur and frequently develop resistance to a broad range ...

Environmental and genetic modulation of the phenotypic expression of antibiotic resistance

FEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2017
Antibiotic resistance can be acquired by mutation or horizontal transfer of a resistance gene, and generally an acquired mechanism results in a predictable increase in phenotypic resistance.
