The RAR1 and SGT1 proteins function synergistically or antagonistically in plant innate immune responses.Here, we show that the rice orthologs OsRAR1 and OsSGT1 physically interact in vivo and in yeast.They displayed conserved roles in Arabidopsis disease resistance through ectopic expression in the Arabidopsis rar1 and sgt1 mutants.Overexpression

When an insect molts, old cuticle on the outside of the integument is shed by apolysis and a new cuticle is formed under the old one.This process is completed by the epidermal cells which are controlled by 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) and juvenile hormone.To understand the molecular mechanisms of integument remolding and hormonal regulation on the gene

Trichoderma is a cosmopolitan fungus widely distributed around the world.The different uses of this beneficial fungus are varied in several industries, like agriculture, textile, and paper, including the pharmaceutical industry.The genus Trichoderma has other mechanisms of action, including the production of different enzymes and secreted secondary

The incidence of obesity in women of reproductive age has significantly increased over the past 100 years.There is a well-established connection between maternal obesity during pregnancy and an increased risk of developing non-communicable cardiometabolic diseases in her offspring.This mini-review SILICONE focuses on evidence examining the effect o
