Late blight is a serious economic threat to potato crop, sometimes leading to complete crop loss. The resistance in potato to late blight can be qualitative or quantitative in nature. Qualitative resistance is not durable. Though quantitative resistance is durable, the breeding is challenging due to
Hydroxycinnamic acids are phenolic compounds and are considered to have health promotion properties due to their antioxidant activity. Potato tubers of 113 genotypes of Solanum tuberosum group Phureja belonging to the Colombian Central Collection, landraces of potatoes, and commercial cultivars were
Four feruloyl amides, N-trans-feruloyloctopamine (1), N-cis-feruloyloctopamine (2), N-trans-feruloyltyramine (3), N-cis-feruloyltyramine (4), a cross-linked N-trans-feruloyltyramine dimer (5), and a cross-linked N-cis-feruloyltyramine dimer (6) were isolated from potato common scab lesions. The
In potato tuber, caffeic acid (the predominant hydroxycinnamic acid (HCA)), its conjugates (HCAcs; i.e. chlorogenic acid (ChA), crypto-ChA, and neo-ChA), and anthocyanin-linked HCAs have been extensively described in the literature. In contrast, only little information is available on the occurrence
The effects of genotype, agro-climatic conditions (ACC), and cooking method as well as their interactions on the content of individual carotenoids and hydroxycinnamic acids in different potato tubers were evaluated. While zeaxanthin content was highly influenced by the ACC (up to 631-fold change),
BACKGROUND
Potatoes contain a diverse range of phytochemicals which have been suggested to have health benefits. Metabolite profiling and quantification were conducted on plant extracts made from a white potato cultivar and 'Urenika', a purple potato cultivar traditionally consumed by New Zealand
Potato plants treated with the pathogen-associated molecular pattern Pep-13 mount salicylic acid- and jasmonic acid-dependent defense responses, leading to enhanced resistance against Phytophthora infestans, the causal agent of late blight disease. Recognition of Pep-13 is assumed to occur by
A pathogen elicitor-inducible soluble acyltransferase (tyramine hydroxycinnamoyltransferase [THT], EC 2.3.1), which catalyzes the transfer of hydroxycinnamic acids from hydroxycinnamoyl-coenzyme A (CoA) esters to tyramine in the formation of N-hydroxycinnamoyltyramine, was partially purified with a
Resistance to late blight in potato is either qualitative or quantitative in nature. The quantitative resistance is durable, but the molecular and biochemical mechanisms underlying quantitative resistance are poorly understood, and are not efficiently utilised in potato breeding. A non-targeted
BACKGROUND
Detailed descriptions of the molecular-chemical diversity in plant rhizodeposits are scarce. The vast majority of our knowledge is derived from a priori methods of analysis, such as GC-MS and HPLC.
OBJECTIVE
To analyse the composition of rhizodeposits from the potato cultivar Solanum
A better understanding of defence responses elicited during compatible plant-virus interactions is a current goal in plant pathology. We analysed defence responses during infection of Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Desiree with Potato virus X (PVX) at the transcript and metabolite level. A mostly
Black dot is a blemish disease of potato tubers caused by the phytopathogenic fungus Colletotrichum coccodes. Qualitative resistance (monogenic) that leads to the hypersensitive response has not been reported against black dot, but commercial potato cultivars show different susceptibility
As part of the response to pathogen infection, potato plants accumulate soluble and cell wall-bound phenolics such as hydroxycinnamic acid tyramine amides. Since incorporation of these compounds into the cell wall leads to a fortified barrier against pathogens, raising the amounts of hydroxycinnamic
Quantitative resistance is polygenically controlled and durable, but the underlying molecular and biochemical mechanisms are poorly understood. Secondary cell wall thickening is a critical process in quantitative resistance, regulated by transcriptional networks. This paper provides compelling
Hydroxycinnamoyl-CoA:tyramine N-(hydroxycinnamoyl)transferase (THT; EC 2.3.1.110) catalyzes the transfer of hydroxycinnamic acids from the respective CoA esters to tyramine and other amines in the formation of N-(hydroxycinnamoyl)amines. Expression of THT is induced by Phytophthora infestans, the
