UvGHF1, as a GH42‐type glycosyl hydrolase secreted by Ustilaginoidea virens, contributes to U. virens virulence, whereas it is recognized by the rice surveillance system to trigger plant immunity. Abstract Rice false smut, caused by the ascomycete fungus Ustilaginoidea virens, which infects rice florets before heading, severely threatens rice grain ...

Anti‐obesity effects exerted by Dioscorea opposita Thunb. polysaccharides in diet‐induced obese mice
For enhancing the economic value of an edible Dioscorea opposita Thunb., the polysaccharides (DOTPs) were isolated. We found that DOTPs produced significant anti‐obesity effects in diet‐induced obese mice. Thus, DOTPs may be a potential prebiotic agent for the treatment of obesity.
