Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sheath blight disease of rice caused by the fungal pathogen R. solani AG1‐IA remains a big threat to rice production worldwide. A limited genetic variation in rice for tolerance to this pathogen and little success in understanding how it defeats host defence are major reasons behind it.

Control of metabolic flux through the quinate pathway in Aspergillus nidulans [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1996 The quinic acid utilization (qut) pathway in Aspergillus nidulans is a dispensable carbon utilization pathway that catabolizes quinate to protocatechuate via dehydroquinate and dehydroshikimate (DHS). At the usual in vitro growth pH of 6.5, quinate enters the mycelium by means of a specific permease and is converted into PCA by the sequential action of

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.BAHD acyltransferases drive metabolic diversification in plants by coupling conserved catalytic scaffolds with regulatory flexibility, enabling stress adaptation and ecological specialisation. ABSTRACT BAHD acyltransferases constitute one of the most versatile enzyme superfamilies in plants, catalysing the acylation of alcohols, amines, polyamines, and

A dynamic rhizosphere interplay between tree roots and soil bacteria under drought stress
eLife, 2022 Root exudates are thought to play an important role in plant-microbial interactions. In return for nutrition, soil bacteria can increase the bioavailability of soil nutrients.

Pantoea coffeiphila sp. nov., cause of the potato taste of Arabica coffee from the African Great Lakes region [PDF]
, 2015 Six isolates recovered from coffee seeds giving off a potato-like flavour were studied. Gene sequencing (rrs and rpoB) showed they belong to the genus Pantoea.

Structural and biochemical approaches uncover multiple evolutionary trajectories of plant quinate dehydrogenases [PDF]
The Plant Journal, 2018 SummaryQuinate is produced and used by many plants in the biosynthesis of chlorogenic acids (CGAs). Chlorogenic acids are astringent and serve to deter herbivory. They also function as antifungal agents and have potent antioxidant properties. Quinate is produced at a branch point of shikimate biosynthesis by the enzyme quinate dehydrogenase (QDH ...
