Virus-related degeneration constrains production of quality sweet potato seed, especially under open field conditions. Once in the open, virus-indexed seed is prone to virus infection leading to decline in performance. Insect-proof net tunnels have been proven to reduce virus infection under
Four degenerate oligonucleotide primers derived from conserved regions of the genome of potyviruses have been designed. A combined assay of reverse transcription and the polymerase chain reaction utilizing these primers on total RNA extracted from Ipomoea purpurea infected with a sweet potato
In the hibernating (diapausing) Colorado potato beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata Say, the flight muscles show pronounced degeneration. The muscle fibrils are greatly reduced in diameter and the sarcosomes are virtually absent. Similar signs of degeneration could be produced by extirpation of the
The potato cyst nematodes (PCNs) Globodera pallida and Globodera rostochiensis are important parasites of potato. PCNs undergo complex biotrophic interactions with their hosts that involve gene expression changes in both the nematode and the host plant. The aim of this study was to determine key
An electron microscope study has shown that the spread of Fusarium sulphureum through potato tuber tissue occurs not only intracellular but also intercellular. The spread of hyphae effected both mechanical and enzymatical. The study of cells neighbouring hyphae shows degeneration of protoplasm.
We have isolated a full length 5-LOX cDNA clone from potato cDNA library using degenerate primers designed from conserved sequences of LOXs. Sequence analysis and comparison of the deduced amino acid sequence revealed high homology to other plant LOXs. We have expressed the cDNA in Escherichia coli
Sensory analysis studies are critical in the development of quality enhanced crops, and may be an important component in the public acceptance of genetically modified foods. It has recently been established that odor preferences are shared between humans and mice, suggesting that odor exploration
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the hazardous effects of fried potato chips upon the retina of two developmental stages of the albino rats aged 7 and 14 days from parturition.
METHODS
PREGNANT RATS WERE ARRANGED INTO TWO GROUPS: control pregnant rats and consequently their delivered newborns until reaching 7
This study was carried out to investigate the effects of hydrated potato starch on the quality of low-fat ttoekgalbi (Korean traditional patty) packaged in modified atmosphere conditions during storage. The ttoekgalbi was prepared from 53.2% lean beef, 13.9% lean pork, 9.3% pork fat, and 23.6% other
To understand the sequence variation and the putative protein structure of P1 gene in Potato virus Y (PVY) and to identify the sources of the variation, P1 gene in PVY isolated from Fujian Province was amplified by reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) using a pair of degenerate
The effect of carcinogenic N-nitrosoamines (NA), NA-producing tetramethylthiuram disulfide (TMTD) pesticide, and of various doses of nitrogen fertilizers (90, 180, and 270 kg/ha) on the forming and vital functions of microbiocenosis of light gray forest soil was studied. The quantity, nitrifying
Plant-parasitic nematodes cause significant damage to major crops throughout the world. The small number of genes conferring natural plant resistance and the limitations of chemical control require the development of new protective strategies. RNA interference or the inducible over-expression of
In the Colorado potato beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata, reproduction and diapause are mediated by the juvenile hormone (JH) titer in the hemolymph. This titer is controlled by JH synthesis in the corpora allata and by JH degradation. The main pathway of JH degradation is by JH esterase in the
