PiCAT2 is required for P. infestans asexual reproduction, abiotic stress tolerance, and pathogenicity; reducing or elevating catalase activity suppresses sporangia formation, germination, and appressoria formation. Abstract Catalase is present in prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms and is important for the protective effects of the antioxidant system ...

Pepper (Piper nigrum L.) serves as a source of income to smallholder spice farmers in Morogoro district of Tanzania. Recently, spike shedding and stem wilting of pepper plants were reported to cause about 30% yield loss of the crop. This study was undertaken to identify the causal agent(s) of the problems.

Ubiquitin-like and ubiquitinylated proteins associated with the maternal cell walls of Scenedesmus obliquus 633 as identified by immunochemistry and LC-MS/MS proteomics. [PDF]
The cell walls of green algae Scenedesmus obliquus are complex, polymeric structures including an inner cellulose layer surrounded by an algaenan-containing trilaminar sheath. The process of autosporulation leads to the formation of sporangial (maternal)

Reverse genetic studies of Benyvirus - Polymyxa betae molecular interaction: Role of the RNA4-encoded protein in virus transmission [PDF]
Beet necrotic yellow vein virus (BNYVV), the leading infectious agent that affects sugar beet, is included within viruses transmitted through the soil from plasmodiophorid as Polymyxa betae. BNYVV is the causal agent of Rhizomania, which induces abnormal
