Analysis of genetic diversity and population structure of the indigenous and exotic wild Malus species using ISSR markers

The Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2019
The genetic diversity and population structure studies on 32 wild Malus species were conducted using the nine inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers. The average value of diversity indices, viz. resolving power (Rp), polymorphic information content (

The miR171a‐TaSCL6‐1 Module Acts Downstream of miR164‐Targeted TaNAC21/22 to Regulate Leaf Rust Resistance in Wheat

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wheat leaf rust, caused by Puccinia triticina, poses a significant threat to global wheat production. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are critical regulators of plant growth, development and stress responses; however, their role in wheat resistance to leaf rust remains poorly understood.

Natural Variations in the Activity of Hydroxycinnamoyl Transferases Promote Accumulation of Metabolites Conferring Rice Resistance

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant‐derived secondary metabolites act as regulators of in planta defence. Plant phenylpropanoid metabolic compounds, including final metabolites such as lignin and flavonoids, and a few intermediate metabolites play critical roles in defence.

Effects of NaCl and Iso-Osmotic Polyethylene Glycol Stress on Na+/H+ Antiport Activity of Three Malus species with Different Salt Tolerance

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2014
Salt stress contains osmotic and ionic stress, while iso-osmotic polyethylene glycol (PEG) has only osmotic stress. This study aimed to compare the different effects on the activity of H+-ATPase, proton pump and Na+/H+ antiport in Malus seedlings between

Genome Assembly Revealed MdZAT5 Coordinates Anthocyanin Biosynthesis in Apple Fruit Peel and Flesh by Interacting With MdHY5. [PDF]

Plant Biotechnol J
ABSTRACT Anthocyanins are plant pigments that contribute to fruit coloration and nutritional quality, yet the coordinated regulation of their accumulation in both peel and flesh remains elusive. Here, we present a haplotype‐resolved genome of Malus cv. ‘Royalty’, a model cultivar with consistently red peel and flesh. A zinc‐finger transcription factor,

MdRLKT1–MdRAX2–MdMKS1 Module Positively Regulating Resistance to Cytospora mali in Apple

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Valsa canker (caused by Cytospora mali = Valsa mali. C. mali) is one of the most destructive diseases affecting apple cultivation. The scarcity of natural germplasm resources with high resistance and immunity underscores the importance of exploring plant immune regulation factors of disease‐resistant breeding.

Malus Hosts–Erwinia amylovora Interactions: Strain Pathogenicity and Resistance Mechanisms

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
The bacterium, Erwinia amylovora, deposits effector proteins such as AvrRpt2EA into hosts through the type III secretion pathogenicity island to cause fire blight in susceptible Malus genotypes.

Assessment of Apple Blotch (Diplocarpon coronariae) Symptom Progression on Malus × domestica Leaves

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Apple blotch is a fungal disease of increasing importance in European apple cultivation. Infection by Diplocarpon coronariae leads to premature leaf abscission in summer, weakening tree vigour and exacerbating harvest losses. Developing resistant cultivars represents a promising preventive strategy.

New Integrative Vectors Increase Agrobacterium rhizogenes Transformation and Help Characterise Roles for Soybean GmTML Gene Family Members

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hairy‐root transformation is widely used to generate transgenic plant roots for genetic functional characterisation studies. However, transformation efficiency can be limited, largely due to the use of binary vectors. Here, we report on the development of novel integrative vectors that significantly increase the transformation efficiency of ...

Exogenous IAA application alleviated altered physiological and biochemical processes through promoting H‐ATPase and Fe chelate reductase activities in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) subjected to iron deficiency

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Exogenous IAA supply enhances the strategy I response in common bean under iron deficiency. Abstract Iron deficiency is a common nutritional disorder observed in calcareous soils, where its resolution by classical methods has shown its failure. However, the exploitation of certain potentialities possessed by crops (rhizosphere acidification, H‐ATPase ...
