Functional identification of sly-miR1919c in tomato resistance to Phytophthora infestans

Environmental and Experimental Botany
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play crucial regulatory roles in plant defense against pathogens. Our previous work identified sly-miR1919c as a potential participant in tomato resistance to late blight. In this study, qRT-PCR analysis revealed that the expression of

Bacteria and Fungi Synergistically Reprogram Flavonoid Metabolites in the Pericarp of Citrus Reticulata 'Chachi' During Storage

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The authors employed widely targeted metabolomics, microbial amplicon sequencing, and fermentation assays to investigate the microbiome 's influence on PCRC 's (pericarp of Citrus reticulata ' Chachi ') flavonoid profile over 0–19 years of storage. Based on the correlation analysis, solid‐state and liquid‐state fermentation, and catalytic activity ...
