Plants are important mediators between above- and belowground herbivores. Consequently, interactions between root and shoot defenses can have far-reaching impacts on entire food webs. We recently reported that infestation of maize roots by larvae of the beetle Diabrotica virgifera virgifera induced shoot resistance against herbivores and pathogens. Root herbivory also enhanced aboveground DIMBOA and primed for enhanced induction of chlorogenic acid, two secondary metabolites that have been associated with plant stress resistance. Interestingly, the plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) emerged as a putative long-distance signal in the regulation of these systemic defenses. In this addendum, we have investigated the role of root-derived ABA in aboveground regulation of DIMBOA and the phenolic compounds chlorogenic acid, caffeic and ferulic acid. Furthermore, we discuss the relevance of ABA in relation to defense against the leaf herbivore Spodoptera littoralis. Soil-drench treatment with ABA mimicked root herbivore-induced accumulation of DIMBOA in the leaves. Similarly, ABA mimicked aboveground priming of chlorogenic acid production, causing augmented induction of this compound after subsequent shoot attack by S. littoralis caterpillars. These findings confirm our notion that ABA acts as an important signal in the regulation of aboveground defenses during belowground herbivory. However, based on our previous finding that ABA alone is not sufficient to trigger aboveground resistance against S. littoralis caterpillars, our results also suggest that the ABA-inducible effects on DIMBOA and chlorogenic acid are not solely responsible for root herbivore-induced resistance against S. littoralis.Key words: induced resistance, Spodoptera littoralis, Zea mays, Diabrotica virgifera, DIMBOA, chlorogenic acid, absisic acid, priming 相似文献

Background
Multi-locus sequence typing (MLST) is a method of typing that facilitates the discrimination of microbial isolates by comparing the sequences of housekeeping gene fragments. The mlstdbNet software enables the implementation of distributed web-accessible MLST databases that can be linked widely over the Internet. 相似文献75.

Isolated populations of drosophila pseudoobscura, separated from North
American populations by about 2,400 km, were found in Colombia in 1960. We
compared for sequences of the small ribosomal RNA (srRNA) gene on the
mitochondria between North American and Colombian D. pseudoobscura in order
to clarify the age of the Colombian isolates. The North American
populations were not genetically different from each other but were
genetically different from the Colombian populations. The Mexican strains
represent the area from which the Colombian founders might have come. The
estimated net nucleotide divergence between Mexican and Colombian D.
pseudoobscura indicates that the Colombian population is not an ancient
lineage. Phylogenies using both distance and parsimony methodologies
reinforced this conclusion. The Colombian samples group together with both
methods but, according to the bootstrap analysis, not significantly. It
appears that the populations have not been separated long enough for their
DNA sequences to show much divergence.

In the current model for Glc3Man9GlcNAc2-P-P-Dol assembly, Man5GlcNAc2-
P-P-Dol, Man-P-Dol, and Glc-P-Dol are synthesized on the cytoplasmic face
of the ER and diffuse transversely to the lumenal leaflet where the
synthesis of the lipid-bound precursor oligosaccharide is completed. To
establish the topological sites of Glc-P-Dol synthesis and the
lipid-mediated glucosyltransfer reactions involved in
Glc3Man9GlcNAc2-P-P-Dol synthesis in ER vesicles from pig brain, the
trypsin-sensitivity of Glc-P-Dol synthase activity and the Glc-P-
Dol:Glc0-2Man9GlcNAc2-P-P-Dol glucosyltransferases (GlcTases) was examined
in sealed microsomal vesicles. Since ER vesicles from brain do not contain
glucose 6-phosphate (Glc 6-P) phosphatase activity, the latency of the
lumenally oriented, processing glucosidase I/II activities was used to
assess the intactness of the vesicle preparations. Comparative enzymatic
studies with sealed ER vesicles from brain and kidney, a tissue that
contains Glc 6-P phosphatase, demonstrate the reliability of using the
processing glucosidase activities as latency markers for topological
studies with microsomal vesicles from non-gluconeogenic tissues lacking Glc
6-P phosphatase. The results obtained from the trypsin-sensitivity assays
with sealed microsomal vesicles from brain are consistent with a
topological model in which Glc-P-Dol is synthesized on the cytoplasmic face
of the ER, and subsequently utilized by the three Glc-P-Dol-mediated
GlcTases after "flip-flopping" to the lumenal monolayer.
