Insights into the Methodological, Biotic and Abiotic Factors Influencing the Characterization of Xylem-Inhabiting Microbial Communities of Olive Trees

Plants, 2023
Vascular pathogens are the causal agents of some of the most devastating plant diseases in the world, which can cause, under specific conditions, the destruction of entire crops.

Nitrate Transport and Distribution in Soybean Plants With Dual-Root Systems

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Nitrate absorbed by soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) roots from the soil can promote plant growth, while nitrate transported to nodules inhibits nodulation and nodule nitrogen fixation activity.

A Phloem-Expressed PECTATE LYASE-LIKE Gene Promotes Cambium and Xylem Development

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The plant vasculature plays essential roles in the transport of water and nutrients and is composed of xylem and phloem, both of which originate from undifferentiated cells found in the cambium.

Primer Choice and Xylem-Microbiome-Extraction Method Are Important Determinants in Assessing Xylem Bacterial Community in Olive Trees

Plants, 2022
Understanding the unique and unexplored microbial environment of xylem sap is starting to be of relevant importance for plant health, as it could include microbes that may protect plants against xylem-limited pathogens, such as Verticillium dahliae and ...

Verticillium dahliae Inoculation and in vitro Propagation Modify the Xylem Microbiome and Disease Reaction to Verticillium Wilt in a Wild Olive Genotype

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Host resistance is the most practical, long-term, and economically efficient disease control measure for Verticillium wilt in olive caused by the xylem-invading fungus Verticillium dahliae (Vd), and it is at the core of the integrated disease management.

Chitinase in Cucumber Xylem Sap

Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 2001
A chitinase activity was detected in fractions of xylem sap collected from the cut surface of cucumber stems. A 28-kDa acidic protein was purified from the active fractions and its N-terminal amino acid sequence was found to be identical to that of a chitinase gene.
