Mapping Quantitative Trait Loci Associated With Resistance to Aflatoxin Accumulation in Maize Inbred Mp719

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Aflatoxins are carcinogenic and toxic compounds produced principally by fungal species Aspergillus flavus (Link: Fries) and A. parasiticus (Speare), which are common contaminants of food and feed.

Comparative Analysis of Multiple GWAS Results Identifies Metabolic Pathways Associated with Resistance to A. flavus Infection and Aflatoxin Accumulation in Maize

Toxins, 2022
Aflatoxins are carcinogenic secondary metabolites produced by several species of Aspergillus, including Aspergillus flavus, an important ear rot pathogen in maize. Most commercial corn hybrids are susceptible to infection by A.

Reference Gene Selection for RT-qPCR Analysis in Maize Kernels Inoculated with Aspergillus flavus

Toxins, 2021
Resistance against infection by the fungus Aspergillus flavus Link in commercial maize (Zea mays L.) is the topic of many studies, but few studies have investigated the effects of A. flavus infection on gene expression levels in ear kernels.

MatGel: A MATLAB program for quantitative analysis of 2D polyacrylamide electrophoresis (2D-PAGE) protein gel images

MethodsX, 2022
Two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2D-PAGE) is widely used in proteomics studies. Hundreds of proteins extracted from a biological sample can be separated and visualized on a 2D-PAGE gel.

The role of effectors in nonhost resistance to filamentous plant pathogens [PDF]

, 2014
In nature, most plants are resistant to a wide range of phytopathogens. However, mechanisms contributing to this so-called nonhost resistance (NHR) are poorly understood.

The cost of phage resistance in a plant pathogenic bacterium is context-dependent. [PDF]

, 2015
Parasites are ubiquitous features of living systems and many parasites severely reduce the fecundity or longevity of their hosts. This parasite-imposed selection on host populations should strongly favor the evolution of host resistance, but hosts ...

Isolation and fine mapping of Rps6: An intermediate host resistance gene in barley to wheat stripe rust [PDF]

, 2016
A plant may be considered a nonhost of a pathogen if all known genotypes of a plant species are resistant to all known isolates of a pathogen species. However, if a small number of genotypes are susceptible to some known isolates of a pathogen species ...

Transcriptomic and volatile signatures associated with maize defense against corn leaf aphid

BMC Plant Biology, 2021
Background Maize (Zea mays L.) is a major cereal crop, with the United States accounting for over 40% of the worldwide production. Corn leaf aphid [CLA; Rhopalosiphum maidis (Fitch)] is an economically important pest of maize and several other monocot ...

A Histological Study of Aspergillus flavus Colonization of Wound Inoculated Maize Kernels of Resistant and Susceptible Maize Hybrids in the Field

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Aspergillus flavus colonization in developing kernels of maize single-cross hybrids resistant (Mp313E × Mp717) and susceptible (GA209 × T173) to aflatoxin accumulation was determined in the field over three growing seasons (2012–2014).
