The potato StMKK5-StSIPK module enhances resistance to Phytophthora pathogens through activating the salicylic acid and ethylene signalling pathways

Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades play pivotal roles in plant responses to both biotic and abiotic stress. A screen of a Nicotiana benthamiana cDNA virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) library for altered plant responses to inoculation with Phytophthora infestans previously identified an NbMKK gene, encoding a clade D MAPKK that we renamed as NbMKK5, which is involved in immunity to P. infestans. To study the role of the potato orthologous gene, referred to as StMKK5, in the response to P. infestans, we transiently overexpressed StMKK5 in N. benthamiana and observed that cell death occurred at 2 days postinfiltration. Silencing of the highly conserved eukaryotic protein SGT1 delayed the StMKK5-induced cell death, whereas silencing of the MAPK-encoding gene NbSIPK completely abolished the cell death response. Further investigations showed that StMKK5 interacts with, and directly phosphorylates, StSIPK. Furthermore, both StMKK5 and StSIPK trigger salicylic acid (SA)- and ethylene (Eth)-related gene expression, and co-expression of the salicylate hydroxylase NahG with the negative regulator of Eth signalling CTR1 hampers StSIPK-triggered cell death. This observation indicates that the cell death triggered by StMKK5-StSIPK is dependent on the combination of SA- and Eth-signalling. By introducing point mutations, we showed that the kinase activity of both StMKK5 and StSIPK is required for triggering cell death. Genetic analysis showed that StMKK5 depends on StSIPK to trigger plant resistance. Thus, our results define a potato StMKK5-SIPK module that positively regulates immunity to P. infestans via activation of both the SA and Eth signalling pathways.     

滇南地区桃树种植模式对土壤有机碳组分及碳库管理指数的影响

经果林种植可改变土壤质量、改善生态环境,同时具有较高的经济效益。合理的种植模式可通过物种间的互补性提高资源利用效率,改善土壤碳库质量并提高综合效益。为探讨桃树种植模式对土壤有机碳组分及碳库管理指数的影响,以云南省开远市不同桃树种植模式(桃树单种-SP和桃树南瓜套种-PP)为研究对象,以毗邻的天然林地(CK)为对照,分析不同种植模式下活性碳库,即高锰酸钾氧化有机碳(POXC)、颗粒有机碳(POC),惰性有机碳库即矿物结合态有机碳(MAOC)在0—40 cm土层的分布情况,明确土壤有机碳组分与土壤理化性质的关系;计算碳库活度指数(CPAI)、碳库指数(CPI)以及碳库管理指数(CPMI),明确不同桃树种植模式的碳库变化情况。结果表明：桃树种植模式和对照的土壤有机碳组分的含量均随着土层深度的增加而减少,平均土壤有机碳(SOC)含量为：14.68 g/kg(CK)>9.57 g/kg(PP)>8.58 g/kg(SP)。平均活性有机碳组分所占比例与POC/MAOC均表现为：SP>CK>PP,PP的活性有机碳比例较低,具有较高的有机碳稳定性。两种桃树种植模式的CPMI在1...     

-cyano-substituted analogoues of decarboxylated S-adenosylmethionine as enzyme activated, irreversible inhibitors of S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase

A pair of -cyano analogues of decarboxylated S-adenosylmethionine (2a and 2b) were synthesized as potential enzyme activated, irreversible inhibitors of the[pyruvoyl enzyme S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase (AdoMet-DC). Each of these analogues acts as an irreversible inactivator for ADoMet-DC from Escherichia coli (IC₅₀ values of 9 and 50 μM, respectively). These analogues also inactivate human AdoMet-DC, with K_I values of 246.6 and 7.2 μM, and k_inact values of 0.29 and 0.03 min⁻¹, respectively.

Preparation of the pure diastereomeric forms of S- (5′-deoxy-5′-adenosyl)-1-ammonio-4-methylsulfonio-2- cyclopentene and their evaluation as irreversible inhibitors of S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase from Escherichia coli

The conformationally restricted S-adenosylmethionine analogue AdoMac (S-(5′-deoxy-5′-adenosyl)-1-ammonio-4-methylsulfonio-2-cyclopentene has been shown to act as an enzyme activated, irreversible inhibitor of theEscherichia coli form of the enzyme S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase. Inactivation of the enzyme is presumably initiated by formation of an imine linkage between the inhibitor and the terminal pyruvate of the enzyme, followed by base-catalyzed elimination of methylthioadenosine and generation of a latent electrophile. Removal of the driving force for the elimination of methylthioadenosine resulted in a reversibly binding inhibitor. Thus, the thioether analogue corresponding to AdoMac, and the corresponding dihydro derivative (H₂-AdoMac), reversibly inhibit the enzyme. AdoMac was resolved into its four pure diastereomeric forms, and each diastereomer was evaluated as an irreversible inhibitor of the enzyme. The K_I values for the individual diastereomers range between 3.83 and 39.6 μM, with the cis-1S,4R diastereomer being the most potent inhibitor. However, the k_inact values for the four diastereomers are not significantly different, suggesting that the binding of each diastereomer to the enzyme is configuration-dependent, while the subsequent inactivation likely proceeds through a single intermediate which is formed from each of the four diastereomers. Since each pure diastereomer represents a distinct conformational mimic exhibiting restricted sidechain rotation, the data suggests that these and related analogues may be useful as conformational probes for the catalytic site of AdoMet-DC.     

气候变化导致青藏高原马鹿种群适应性分布退缩：以类乌齐马鹿国家级自然保护区为例

近50年青藏高原的气候变化速率是全球平均值的2倍,对高原有蹄类的种群分布和多样性维持带来严重影响。本研究以西藏类乌齐马鹿国家级自然保护区的马鹿种群为例,通过2013年和2021年对马鹿和牦牛种群数量、分布的调查,并整合了物种分布模型和种群动态模型,评估了当前和未来气候变化及人类活动(放牧、道路、居民点等)对马鹿种群适应性分布的影响。研究表明,马鹿种群在2013—2021年由890头增加到1 400头,根据种群增长模型预计在2050年马鹿种群数量将达到1 735头,但其适宜栖息地在2050年代下降43.4%,2070年代下降5.1%,表明马鹿种群增长与适宜栖息地缩小之间的冲突将不利于马鹿种群的可持续发展。同时,当前马鹿与牦牛栖息地重合率为19%,2050年代为60%,2070年代为37%,且牦牛与马鹿存在食物竞争,这在一定程度上减少了马鹿原有的适宜栖息地。为保护马鹿,建议减少牦牛的饲养量1 000～1 500头。本研究将种群增长模型、种间竞争关系与物种分布模型整合,把气候变化对物种的影响延伸到种群层面,对其他物种的保护具有借鉴意义。
