Adenosine—A Regulator of Human Testicular Peritubular Cells

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Extracellular purines, in particular ATP and adenosine, are regulators of physiological and pathophysiological processes throughout the human body. Roles in the human testis are emerging and include actions on peritubular cells, which form the wall of seminiferous tubules.

A Systematic Map to Identify Knowledge Gaps on a Vector of Citrus Greening Diseases: The African Citrus Triozid, Trioza erytreae (Del Guercio, 1918) (Hemiptera: Triozidae)

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Globally, citrus production areas are threatened by greening diseases, also known as Huánglóngbíng (HLB), associated with phloem‐limited gram‐negative species of the genus Candidatus Liberibacter. Those pathogens are transmitted by either the Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri Kuwayama 1908 (Hemiptera: Psyllidae), or the African citrus ...

Engineered Yarrowia lipolytica inducing gene silencing confers control ability against gray mold in plants

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Engineered the plant‐colonizing yeast Yarrowia lipolytica to produce and deliver double‐stranded RNAs targeting key genes of the gray mold fungus Botrytis cinerea produced a ‘living factory’ that continuously synthesizes and releases gene‐silencing molecules on plant surfaces, effectively suppressing the pathogen.

Spray-induced gene silencing in the battle against pathogens, pests and weeds on our fields - soon reality or still a sci-fi?

Plant Protection Science
Agriculture faces ongoing challenges from pathogens, pests and weed threats that are amplified by climate change, intensive monoculture farming practices, and regulatory restrictions limiting traditional chemical treatments.

Disruption of OsMAPKKK24 activation by the Xanthomonas oryzae effector XopY leads to compromised disease resistance in rice

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The kinase OsRLCK55 phosphorylates OsMAPKKK24 to positively regulate rice resistance against Xanthomonas oryzae. To compromise this defense, the effector XopY targets OsMAPKKK24 and suppresses its autophosphorylation and the transphosphorylation mediated by OsRLCK55, ultimately leading to reduced disease resistance.

Analysis of Begomoviruses-Mediated Gene Silencing

, 2003
Viral vectors carrying a host-derived sequence insert induce silencing of the corresponding gene in infected plants. This virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) is a defense mechanism that is related to post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS) in ...

Efficiency of RNAi‐based gene silencing in fungi: a meta‐analysis

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Mechanistic interpretation of RNAi efficiency across fungal lifestyles and delivery strategies based on the present meta‐analysis. Summary RNA interference (RNAi) shows great potential to protect crops against fungal diseases, yet reported protection efficiencies vary greatly, and our understanding of the factors responsible for this variance remains ...

Light‐induced phyB‐NPR1 interaction activates systemic acquired resistance

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Model showing phyB‐mediated fine‐tuning of defence responses via NPR1. Summary Light perception by phytochromes controls different aspects of plant–environment interactions including plant immunity; however, the underpinning molecular mechanisms are less well‐understood.
