Broomrapes (Orobanche spp.) are obligate parasites that infect roots of dicotyledoneous plants. Orobanche spp. are particularly important in southern and eastern Europe, the Middle East, and north Africa. O. crenata causes severe damage to legume crops, O. cumana threatens sunflower, O. ramosa
CONCLUSIONS
We report for the first time that expression of potato PR10a gene in faba bean causes enhanced tolerance to drought and salinity. Grain legumes such as soybean (Glycine max L. Merrill), pea (Pisum sativum L.) and faba bean (Vicia faba L.) are staple sources of protein for human and
Vetches (Vicia spp.) are planted alone or in combination with other plants as cover crops in vegetable production areas of California. December 2001 through February 2003, purple (V. benghalensis) and lana woollypod (V. villosa subsp. varia) vetches in the Salinas Valley (Monterey County) developed
A PCR approach with degenerate primers designed from conserved NBS-LRR (nucleotide binding site-leucine-rich repeat) regions of known disease-resistance (R) genes was used to amplify and clone homologous sequences from 5 faba bean (Vicia faba) lines and 2 chickpea (Cicer arietinum) accessions.
Cathepsin D is a lysosomal protease which plays an important role in cancer invasion and metastasis. There are known inhibitors of that enzyme, such as pepstatin and potato inhibitor. In this study, we examined effects of the cathepsin D inhibitor from Vicia sativa L. seed hulls on cell cultures of
The binding of 21 lectins to the accessory olfactory bulb (AOB) of the rat was examined by histochemistry. Two lectins [Bandeiraea simplicifolia lectin I (BSL-I) and Vicia villosa agglutinin (VVA)] bound specifically to the vomeronasal (VN) axons in the AOB. Seven lectins (Datura stramonium lectin,
Tissue slices from developing potato tubers (Solanum tuberosum L.) and developing cotyledons of faba bean (Vicia faba L.) were incubated with specifically labelled [(13)C]glucose and [(13)C]ribose. Enriched[(13)C]glucose released from starch granules was analysed by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR).
In three experiments (Exp. 1, 2, and 3) with young pigs (BW 10 to 26 kg), the effects of dietary inclusion of hulls of faba beans (Vicia faba L.) (200 g/kg) with a low (< .1% catechin equivalents; LT) or high tannin content (3.3% catechin equivalents; HT) on the apparent ileal (Exp. 1 and 2) and
In this report a full-length cDNA, SPCP2, which encoded a putative papain-like cysteine protease was isolated from senescent leaves of sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas). SPCP2 contained 1101 nucleotides (366 amino acids) in its open reading frame, and exhibited high amino acid sequence identities (ca.
Asparaginyl endopeptidase is a cysteine endopeptidase that has strict substrate specificity toward the carboxyl side of asparagine residues, and is possibly involved in the post-translational processing of proproteins. In this report one full-length cDNA, SPAE, was isolated from senescent leaves of
The Arabidopsis thaliana genome encodes three RNA-binding proteins (RBPs), UBP1-associated protein 2a (UBA2a), UBA2b, and UBA2c, that contain two RNA-recognition motif (RRM) domains. They play important roles in wounding response and leaf senescence, and are homologs of Vicia faba
Globodera ellingtonae was detected in Oregon in 2008. In order to make decisions regarding the regulation of this nematode, knowledge of its biology is required. We determined the host status of a diversity of potato (Solanum tuberosum) varieties in soil-based experiments and identified hatching
The antigenic properties of virus isolates of tobacco mosaic, cucumber mosaic, bean common and yellow mosaic, soybean mosaic, Y-, X-, and A-potato viruses, Vicia unijuga mosaic, affecting agricultural crops and wild plants in the Far East of Russia were studied. Universal immunodiagnosticums fit for
(RS)-2-cis, 4-trans-abscisic acid (ABA), a naturally occurring plant stress hormone, elicited rapid agonist-specific changes in myo-inositol hexakisphosphate (InsP(6)) measured in intact guard cells of Solanum tuberosum (n = 5); these changes were not reproduced by (RS)-2-trans, 4-trans-abscisic
Several aphidophagous beneficials such as parasitoids and predators are known to respond positively to aphid infested plants. Semiochemicals from the latter association play an important role in the foraging of predators in a tritrophic approach. In this work, three host plants infested with green
