A number of soil-borne microorganisms, such as mycorrhizal fungi and rhizobacteria, establish mutualistic interactions with plants, which can indirectly affect other organisms. Knowledge of the plant-mediated effects of mutualistic microorganisms is limited to aboveground insects, whereas there is little understanding of what role beneficial soil bacteria may play in plant defense against root herbivory. Here, we establish that colonization by the beneficial rhizobacterium Azospirillum brasilense affects the host selection and performance of the insect Diabrotica speciosa. Root larvae preferentially orient toward the roots of non-inoculated plants versus inoculated roots and gain less weight when feeding on inoculated plants. As inoculation by A. brasilense induces higher emissions of (E)-β-caryophyllene compared with non-inoculated plants, it is plausible that the non-preference of D. speciosa for inoculated plants is related to this sesquiterpene, which is well known to mediate belowground insect-plant interactions. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study showing that a beneficial rhizobacterium inoculant indirectly alters belowground plant-insect interactions. The role of A. brasilense as part of an integrative pest management (IPM) program for the protection of corn against the South American corn rootworm, D. speciosa, is considered. 相似文献

Fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) deficiency is a rare inborn error of fructose metabolism caused by pathogenic variants in the FBP1 gene. As gluconeogenesis is affected, catabolic episodes can induce ketotic hypoglycemia in patients. FBP1 analysis is the most commonly used approach for the diagnosis of this disorder. Herein, a Brazilian patient is reported. The proband, a girl born to a consanguineous couple, presented with severe hypoglycemia crisis in the neonatal period. At the age 17 months, presented a new crisis accompanied by metabolic acidosis associated with a feverish episode. Genetic analysis was performed by next-generation sequencing (NGS), identifying the :c.611_614del variant in homozygosis in the FBP1 gene. In silico analysis and 3D modeling were performed, suggesting that this variant is associated with a loss of sites for substrate and Mg2+ binding and for posttranslational modifications of FBPase. The c.611_614del variant is located in a repetitive region of the FBP1 gene that appears to be a hotspot for mutational events. This frameshift creates a premature termination codon in the last coding exon which escapes the nonsense-mediated decay mechanism, according to in silico analysis. This variant results in an intrinsically disordered protein with loss of substrate recognition and post-translational modification sites. NM_000507.3相似文献
