Coronatine-Induced Maize Defense against Gibberella Stalk Rot by Activating Antioxidants and Phytohormone Signaling

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2023
One of the most destructive diseases, Gibberella stalk rot (GSR), caused by Fusarium graminearum, reduces maize yields significantly. An induced resistance response is a potent and cost-effective plant defense against pathogen attack.

Giving maize an excited start – Effects of dopamine on maize germination

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2020
Dopamine (DA) is a neurotransmitter which takes charge of brain activities about memory and self-stimulation behavior in animals. Interestingly, our results suggest that DA could also give maize an “excited state”.

Effects of thidiazuron and methyl jasmonate tank mixes on cotton defoliation and the underlying phytohormonal mechanisms

open access: yesJournal of Cotton Research
Background Thidiazuron (TDZ) is a widely used chemical defoliant in commercial cotton production and is often combined with the herbicide Diuron to form the commercial defoliant mixture known as TDZ·Diuron (T·D, 540 g·L-1 suspension).

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Analysis of differential expression of genes induced by ethephon in elongating internodes of maize plants [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers of Agricultural Science and Engineering, 2016
Plant growth regulators (PGRs) are commonly used in cereal cropping systems to restrict plant height and control lodging. Ethephon has been reported to shorten internodes and increase grain yield of maize.
