Integrated transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses of early defense responses in resistant and susceptible sweet potato cultivars under Cylas formicarius herbivory [PDF]
IntroductionSweet potato weevils (Cylas formicarius) are devastating pest that seriously affect sweet potato production, and their feeding can significantly reduce sweet potato yield and quality.MethodsTo elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying ...

The activation mechanism of peroxidase by ultrasound
The activation mechanism of peroxidase by ultrasound was investigated. The catalysis performance of peroxidase with ultrasound treatment was prior to the controls determined by UV–visible spectra and Fourier transform infrared spectra. The transformation

Ipomoea batatas HKT1 transporter homolog mediates K+ and Na+ uptake in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
: Soil salinity causes the negative effects on the growth and yield of crops. In this study, two sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) cultivars, Xushu 28 (X-28) and Okinawa 100 (O-100), were examined under 50 and 100 mmol L−1 NaCI stress.
