transcriptomics, etc ; citrates; fruiting; genes; malates; peaches; phenotype; Show all 7 Subjects
Abstract:
... Malate, citrate, and quinate are the major organic acids in ripen peach fruit, the content of which undergoes considerable variations during fruit development and maturation. The molecular mechanisms underlying these variations remain largely unclear. In this study, weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) of two accessions in five developmental stages was performed to identify network ...
transcriptomics, etc ; Monascus purpureus; biosynthesis; carbon; citrinin; enzymes; irradiation; mutants; nitrogen; pH; polyketides; Show all 11 Subjects
Abstract:
... The industrial production of monascus yellow pigments (MYPs) has not yet been done due to the lack of high-quality industrial Monascus strains. In this work, we employed carbon ion beam (¹²C⁶⁺) irradiation to screen Monascus strains that produce high-quality extracellular MYPs (extr-MYPs). One genetically stable M. purpureus mutant of BWY-5 with extr-MYPs accumulation was obtained under ¹²C⁶⁺ irra ...

Abstract:
... Tetrachlorobisphenol A (TCBPA), a widely used halogenated flame retardant, is frequently detected in environmental compartments and human samples. However, unknown developmental toxicity and mechanisms limit the entire understanding of its effects. In this study, zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos were exposed to various concentrations of TCBPA while a combination of transcriptomics, behavioral and b ...

Abstract:
... Turnip (Brassica campestris L. ssp. rapifera Matag syn. B. rapa L.) is characterized by bulbous hypocotyl-tuber, which is an important agronomic trait of the Brassica plants, but the molecular mechanism underlying the development of turnip hypocotyl-tuber has rarely been explored. Contrary to turnip, pak-choi (B. campestris L. ssp. chinensis Makino syn. B. rapa ssp. chinensis) is characterized by ...

Abstract:
... Marine heatwaves are predicted to become more intense and frequent in the future, possibly threatening the survival of marine organisms and devastating their communities. While recent evidence reveals the adaptability of marine organisms to heatwaves, substantially overlooked is whether they can also adjust to repeated heatwave exposure, which can occur in nature. By analysing transcriptome, we ex ...
transcriptomics, etc ; Arabidopsis; Vitis; biosynthesis; cultivars; drought; drought tolerance; endoplasmic reticulum; epicuticular wax; fruits; genome; grapes; water stress; Show all 13 Subjects
Abstract:
... Drought stress limits fruit ripening and quality of grape cultivar, particularly with the use of root restriction. However, the mechanism involved in the molecular response to water deficit concomitant to agriculture adjustment remains poorly understood. In the present study, the regulation of two grape β-ketoacyl-CoA synthase (KCS) genes obtained with transcriptome analysis whose expression is si ...
... Chrysanthemum morifolium is a popular flower. The disc florets of most C. morifolium varieties are yellow or colourless, whereas those of the anemone-form are red/pink. To explain this difference, we analysed the metabolomes and transcriptomes of ‘Danfen’ (conventional variety) and ‘Fenlian’ (anemone-form variety). Of the 129,277 assembled unigenes, 59,070 were annotated. A total of 50,325 differe ...

Abstract:
... The B3 superfamily comprises a class of transcription factors containing B3 functional domains that play crucial roles in plant growth and development. However, the identification and analysis of the B3 superfamily have not been reported in pecans. In this study, 75 B3 superfamily members were identified and divided into four families, namely ARF (31), RAV (10), LAV (8), and REM (26). The gene str ...

Abstract:
... Aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) and ochratoxin A (OTA) are common mycotoxins in cereal foods and milk products, and may cause serious negative impacts on human health. The intestine is crucial for immune regulation as it protects host homeostatic health from external contaminants; however, the underlying mechanisms of AFM1 and OTA mediated intestinal immunotoxicity remain unclear. In this study, whole transcr ...
transcriptomics, etc ; Nitrosomonas; Thauera; carbon; denitrification; energy; environment; gene expression; iron; metagenomics; microbial communities; nitrate reduction; nitrification; nitrogen; sludge; total nitrogen; Show all 16 Subjects
Abstract:
... Simultaneous nitrification and denitrification (SND) has the advantage of energy saving and carbon demand reduction. Here, readily available low-cost iron scraps packing was added to an aerobic sludge system. This successfully enhanced the efficiency of total nitrogen removal from 37.7 ± 13.2 % to 62.7 ± 7.9 % over 2 days. While electrons from iron biocorrosion did not contribute to nitrate reduct ...
... Yellow cultivars of Flammulina filiformis are prone to browning, which causes significant yearly loss. This study investigated the critical factors involved and revealed that oxygen plays an essential role in the browning process. Integrated multi-omic analyses, including genome sequencing, transcriptome profiling, and 4D label-free proteome quantification, were incorporated to dissect essential g ...
... Exposure to triclosan (TCS) has been reported to reduce photosynthetic pigments, suppress photosynthesis, and inhibit growth in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic algae including Anabaena flos-aquae (a model cyanobacterium). In particular, cyanobacteria are more sensitive to TCS toxicity compared to eukaryotic algae possibly due to the structural similarity to bacteria (target organisms); however, wh ...

Abstract:
... Anthocyanins can be induced by environmental factors such as low- temperature, and play an important role in adapting to abiotic stress. In this study, the leaves of 'Cabernet Gernischt' grapes with different colors under natural low-temperature in autumn were collected and grouped into Green (Gre), Light-red (L-Red), Red (Red), and Dark-red (D-Red). Results showed that the total anthocyanin conte ...
... Pseudomonas plecoglossicida is an important pathogenic bacterial species in aquaculture, causing visceral granulomas in large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea) and several other economically important fish species. The GacS/GacA is a two-component regulatory system (TCS) primarily found in Pseudomonads for its role in virulence, quorum sensing, and biofilm formation. To investigate the potentia ...
... Mepanipyrim, an anilinopyrimidine fungicide, has been extensively used to prevent fungal diseases in fruit culture. Currently, research on mepanipyrim-induced toxicity in organisms is still very scarce, especially visual developmental toxicity. Here, zebrafish larvae were employed to investigate mepanipyrim-induced visual developmental toxicity. Intense light and monochromatic light stimuli-evoked ...
... Banana, as a typical climacteric fruit, undergoes a ripening process which impacts fruit quality. The Nantianhuang (NTH) banana fruit is a new cultivar resistant to Fusarium wilt, whose physiological characteristics and regulation mechanisms of fruit ripening are not clear. Ripening physiology and the related genes of the NTH fruit were compared with the Brazilian banana (BX) and investigated in t ...
... The economically important seaweed Porphyra are often infected by various diseases during sea farming. As one of the most important phytohormones in disease resistance, the protective effect of salicylic acid (SA) on Neoporphyra haitanensis during Vibrio mediterranei 117-T6 infection was investigated by biochemical methods and transcriptomic profile analysis. The addition of exogenous SA at a mode ...
... Viral hemorrhagic septicemia (VHS) in olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) causes considerable economic losses in the flounder aquaculture industry in Korea. This study was aimed to identify the immune-associated genes contributing to VHSV infection progression in the kidneys of the olive flounder. Ten fish were divided into two groups via an intraperitoneal injection with either diethylpyrocar ...

Abstract:
... Under stressful conditions, bacteria can enter viable but non-culturable (VBNC) state to survive. VBNC cells lost ability to grow on routine culture medium but are still alive and may revive in suitable conditions. The revived cells can consume nutrients or produce toxins, leading to food spoilage or human illness, posing great risk to food safety and public health. Previously, we have reported th ...
... With the rapid development of hydropower facility construction, the total dissolved gas (TDG) generated by dam discharge is seriously threatening the survival of fish and has become an ecological environmental issue of global concern. However, how TDG affects fish physiology and the underlying molecular mechanism remain poorly known. In this study, Acipenser dabryanus, an ancient living fossil tha ...
