Targeted activation tagging of the Arabidopsis NBS-LRR gene, ADR1, conveys resistance to virulent pathogens
(AMER PHYTOPATHOLOGICAL SOC, 2003-08)A transgenic Arabidopsis line containing a chimeric PR-1::luciferase (LUC) reporter gene was subjected to mutagenesis with activation tags. Screening of lines via high-throughput LUC imaging identified a number of dominant ... -
The mannitol cycle in Pleurotus ostreatus (Florida)
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2004-07-15)In mushroom, presence of the mannitol cycle has not been reported so far although the polyol is supposed to be generated by the reduction of fructose by mannitol dehydrogenase. This study submits evidence for the presence ... -
PTC-1: A homologue of TFL1/CEN involved in the control of shoot architecture in Beta palonga
(CURRENT SCIENCE ASSOC, 2008-01-10)A terminal flower mutant phenotype of Beta palonga, a leafy vegetable, isolated earlier has been characterized. Micromorphological and histological study of the normal and mutant phenotype reveals physiognomic similarity ... -
Differential profiling of selected defence-related genes induced on challenge with Alternaria brassicicola in resistant white mustard and their comparative expression pattern in susceptible India mustard
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2008-11)The lack of availability of sources of resistance against Alternaria brassicicola within the family Brassicaceae has made oilseed mustard plants a target for one of the most damaging and widespread fungal diseases, Alternaria ... -
Fusarium elicitor-dependent calcium influx and associated ros generation in tomato is independent of cell death
(SPRINGER, 2010-02)Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici elicitor (EFOL-2) treatment induces cytosolic influx of calcium in Fusarium-resistant tomato suspension culture. The calcium signature was found to be biphasic, which is characteristic ... -
An unedited 1.1 kb mitochondrial orfB gene transcript in the Wild Abortive Cytoplasmic Male Sterility (WA-CMS) system of Oryza sativa L. subsp indica
(BIOMED CENTRAL, 2010-03-02)Background: The application of hybrid rice technology has significantly increased global rice production during the last three decades. Approximately 90% of the commercially cultivated rice hybrids have been derived ... -
In search of decoy/guardee to R genes: deciphering the role of sugars in defense against Fusarium wilt in chickpea.
(Landes Bioscience, 2010-09)Plant responses are coordinately controlled by both external and internal signals. Apt perception of pathogen attack and its appropriate conversion to internal signals ultimately determine the outcome of innate immunity. ...
