Should we aim for genetic improvement of host resistance or tolerance to infectious disease? [PDF]

, 2017
A host can adopt two strategies when facing infection: resistance, where host immune responses prevent or reduce pathogen replication; or tolerance, which refers to all mechanisms that reduce the impact of the infection on host health or performance.

Partial resistance to leaf rust in a collection of ancient Spanish barleys

, 2001
A collection of 569 Spanish barley accessions was screened for resistance to leaf rust (Puccinia hordei Otth) in the field at Cordoba during the 2000-2001 season. The level of resistance ranged from very low to very high.

A comparison of hydroponic and soil-based screening methods to identify salt tolerance in the field in barley [PDF]

, 2012
Success in breeding crops for yield and other quantitative traits depends on the use of methods to evaluate genotypes accurately under field conditions. Although many screening criteria have been suggested to distinguish between genotypes for their salt ...

Resistance and Tolerance to Viroid Infection

, 2022
Viroids are known the smallest plant pathogens, and although their genome sequences do not encode proteins, they can cause disease in economically important crops. In order to control viroid diseases and mitigate their damage, genetic resources used for breeding of the viroid-resistant crop have been searched, but the practical resistant trait has not ...

Bacterial N-Acyl Homoserine Lactone Priming Enhances Leaf-Rust Resistance in Winter Wheat and Some Genomic Regions Are Associated with Priming Efficiency

Microorganisms
Leaf rust (Puccinia triticina) is a common disease that causes significant yield losses in wheat. The most frequently used methods to control leaf rust are the application of fungicides and the cultivation of resistant genotypes.

Erythropoietin modulates hepatic inflammation, glucose homeostasis, and soluble epoxide hydrolase and epoxides in high‐fat diet‐induced obese mice

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Erythropoietin administration suppresses hepatic soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) expression, leading to increased CYP‐derived epoxides. This is associated with a shift in hepatic macrophage polarization characterized by reduced M1 markers and increased M2 markers, along with reduced hepatic inflammation, suppressed hepatic lipogenesis, and attenuated ...

High-resolution mapping of Rym14Hb, a wild relative resistance gene to barley yellow mosaic disease

, 2023
Key message We mapped the Rym14Hb resistance locus to barley yellow mosaic disease in a 2Mbp interval. The co-segregating markers will be instrumental for marker-assisted selection in barley breeding. Abstract

Analysing the significance of small conformational changes and low occupancy states in serial crystallographic data

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This protocol paper outlines methods to establish the success of a time‐resolved serial crystallographic experiment, by means of statistical analysis of timepoint data in reciprocal space and models in real space. We show how to amplify the signal from excited states to visualise structural changes in successful experiments.

Matrix metalloproteinase‐9 regulates cell adhesion and membrane protrusive activity of ovarian cancer cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Matrix metalloproteinase‐9 (MMP9) drives ovarian cancer progression. Using MMP9‐null cells (M9‐KO) created from ovarian cancer cells, we found MMP9 loss did not block Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF)‐driven E‐cadherin dissolution or EMT but delayed and reduced EGF‐driven membrane protrusions. Transient MMP9 re‐expression drove membrane protrusion.
