    The NAC Transcription Factor ANAC089 Modulates Seed Vigor through the ABI5-VTC2 Module in Arabidopsis thaliana

    Yuan Tian, Lulu Zhi, Ping Li*, Xiangyang Hu*

    Phyton-International Journal of Experimental Botany, Vol., , DOI:10.32604/phyton.2024.050220

    Abstract Seed viability is an essential feature for genetic resource conservation as well as sustainable crop production. Long-term storage induces seed viability deterioration or seed aging, accompanied by the accumulation of toxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) to suppress seed germination. Controlled deterioration treatment (CDT) is a general approach for mimicking seed aging. The transcription factor ANAC089 was previously reported to modulate seed primary germination. In this study, we evaluated the ability of ANAC089 to control seed viability during aging. Compared with that in the wild-type line, the mutation of ANAC089 significantly increased HO, thereby reducing seed viability after… More >

    Abstract From economic and nutritional points of view, tomato is, historically, considered one of the most important crops. Without significant yield reduction, most commercial cultivars of tomato crops are sensitive to moderate levels of salinity. However, high levels of salt stress can negatively affect the yield and quality of tomato fruits. Therefore, this study was conducted to evaluate the yield and fruit quality of three tomato cultivars (Forester, Ghandowra-F1, and Feisty-Red) cultivated hydroponically, under three different levels of nutrient solution salinity. Evaluation of tomato fruits was performed based on quantity (number and weight of fruits, and… More >

    Evaluation of Resistance of Different Kiwifruit Varieties (Lines) to Canker Disease and Brown Spot Disease

    Wenwen Su1,#, Chongpei Zheng3,#, Zhencheng Han2, Chunguang Ren1, Di Wu1, Tao Li1, Yi Yang1, Weijie Li2,*

    Phyton-International Journal of Experimental Botany, Vol., , DOI:10.32604/phyton.2024.051935

    Abstract Kiwifruit canker and brown spot are significant diseases affecting kiwis, caused by Pseudomonas syringae pathogenic variations (Pseudomonas syringae pv. Actinidiae (Psa)) and Corynesporapolytica (Corynespora cassiicola). At present, the research on canker disease and brown spot disease mainly focuses on the isolation and identification of pathogenic bacteria, drug control, resistance gene mining and functional verification. Practice has proved that breeding disease resistant varieties are an effective method to control canker disease and brown spot disease. However, most existing cultivars lack genes for canker and brown spot resistance. Wild kiwifruit resources in nature exhibit extensive genetic diversity due to prolonged natural selection,… More >

    Abstract Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) is an essential food crop for more than 750 million people in tropical and sub-tropical dry climates of Africa, India, and Latin America. The domestic sorghum market in Indonesia is still limited to the eastern region (East Nusa Tenggara, West Nusa Tenggara, Java, and South Sulawesi). Therefore, it is crucial to carry out sorghum research on drylands. This research aimed to investigate the effect of sorghum genotype and planting distance and their interaction toward growth and sorghum’s productivity in the Gunungkidul dryland, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. In addition, the farm business analysis, including… More >

    Monitoring Xylem Transport in the Stem of Lilium lancifolium Using Fluorescent Dye 5(6)-Carboxyfluorescein Diacetate

    Yulin Luo1,2,#, Panpan Yang2,#, Mengmeng Bi2, Leifeng Xu2, Fang Du3,*, Jun Ming2,*

    Phyton-International Journal of Experimental Botany, Vol., , DOI:10.32604/phyton.2024.051197

    Abstract The xylem undergoes physiological changes in response to various environmental conditions during the process of plant growth. To understand these physiological changes, it is extremely important to observe the transport of xylem. In this study, the distribution and structure of vascular bundle in Lilium lancifolium were observed using the method of semithin section. Methods for introducing a fluorescent tracer into the xylem of the stems were evaluated. Then, the transport rule of 5(6)-Carboxyfluorescein diacetate (CFDA) in the xylem of the stem of L. lancifolium was studied by fluorescence dye in live cells tracer technology. The results showed… More >

    Effects of Different Light Qualities on the Growth Characteristics of Populus trinervis

    Jiaqi Li1,2, Zhensheng Qiao1,2, Dan Zong1,2, Chengzhong He1,2,3,*

    Phyton-International Journal of Experimental Botany, Vol., , DOI:10.32604/phyton.2024.050637

    Abstract Populus trinervis is native to China and plays an irreplaceable role in maintaining the ecological balance of boreal and temperate forests. P. trinervis mainly grows in high-altitude areas. At present, there are limited studies on the response of P. trinervis to different light qualities, so it is necessary to investigate the photosynthetic physiological changes of P. trinervis in different light environments. In our study, P. trinervis was grown for 8 months under light filtered by three different colored films. The three treatments were blue film, green film, and white plastic film. The effects of blue (B), green (G), and white… More >

    ShCTR1 Interacts with ShRBOH1 to Positively Regulate Aerenchyma Formation in Saussurea inversa through ROS Mediation

    Wubin Dai1, Xiuting Ju1,2, Guomin Shi1,2, Jialei Guo3,4, Tao He3,4,*

    Phyton-International Journal of Experimental Botany, Vol., , DOI:10.32604/phyton.2024.050066

    Abstract Saussurea inversa is one of the Tibetan medicine with developed aerenchyma. In this study, we investigated the function of the ShCTR1 gene related to the formation of aerenchyma. The study of the occurrence and formation of aerenchyma in S. inversa has certain theoretical significance in revealing the special mechanism of alpine plants adapting to the environment. The results of yeast two-hybrid experiments showed that S. inversa ShCTR1 interacted with the ShRBOH1, which is a key producer of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and it was hypothesized that ShCTR1 regulation of aerenchyma formation in S. inversa mainly mediated by ROS. Aerenchyma induction and… More >

    Photosynthetic Gas Exchange and Nitrogen Assimilation in Green Bean Plants Supplied with Two Sources of Silicon

    Julio C. Anchondo-Páez, Esteban Sánchez*, Carlos A. Ramírez-Estrada, Alondra Salcido-Martínez, Erick H. Ochoa-Chaparro

    Phyton-International Journal of Experimental Botany, Vol., , DOI:10.32604/phyton.2024.048742

    Abstract Beans contain a wide range of vitamins, proteins, calcium, and zinc which make them an important food source for many countries. To meet the demand for bean production worldwide, large amounts of fertilizers and pesticides are used. However, the cost of production and environmental impact increases. To produce food sustainably, the use of beneficial nutrients such as silicon as a biostimulant has been proposed. However, information about the effect of different sources of silicon on the metabolism of bean plants is scarce. Bean plants cv. Strike were grown in pots for 60 days and the… More >

    4-Hydroxy-2-Oxoglutaric Acid, A Key Metabolite Involved in Trypsin-Regulation of Arginine Metabolism in Hylocereus undatus during Storage

    Bairu Li1, Jingyu Jia1, Hemin Wang1, Jiaju Sun1, Enyan Chen1, Xin Li1,2,3,*

    Phyton-International Journal of Experimental Botany, Vol., , DOI:10.32604/phyton.2024.050450

    Abstract Trypsin, a novel superoxide scavenger, significantly enhances the storage quality of Hylocereus undatus (H. undatus). To elucidate the preservation mechanism of trypsin on H. undatus, a widely targeted metabolomic analysis, and transcriptomics analysis were conducted. Firstly, a total of 453 metabolites were identified, with organic acids and their derivatives constituting the largest proportion (25%). Amino acids and their metabolites, prominent among organic acids, were further analyzed. Among them, 73 metabolites were associated with amino acids, and 37 exhibited significant differences. The most enriched Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway was arginine biosynthesis (map00220), with polyamine metabolites… More >
