A new species of entomopathogenic nematode (EPN), Steinernema biddulphi n. sp., was isolated from a maize field in Senekal, Free State Province of South Africa. Morphological and molecular studies indicated the distinctness of S. biddulphi n. sp. from other Steinernema species. Steinernema biddulphi n. sp. is characterized IJs with average body length of 663 μm (606–778 μm), lateral fields with six ridges in mid-body region forming the formula 2,6,2. Excretory pore located anterior to mid-pharynx (D% = 46). Hyaline layer occupies approximately half of tail length. Male spicules slightly to moderately curved, with a sharp tip and golden brown in color. The first generation of males lacking a mucron on the tail tip while the second generation males with a short filamentous mucron. Genital papillae with 11 pairs and one unpaired preanal papilla. The new species is further characterized by sequences of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and partial 28S regions (D2-D3) of the ribosomal DNA (rDNA). Phylogenetic data show that S. biddulphi n. sp. belongs to the “bicornutum” clade within the Steinernematidae family. 相似文献

Salinity stress is a major threat to global food production and its intensity is continuously increasing because of
anthropogenic activities. Wheat is a staple food and a source of carbohydrates and calories for the majority of
people across the globe. However, wheat productivity is adversely affected by salt stress, which is associated with
a reduction in germination, growth, altered reproductive behavior and enzymatic activity, disrupted photosynthesis, hormonal imbalance, oxidative stress, and yield reductions. Thus, a better understanding of wheat (plant)
behavior to salinity stress has essential implications to devise counter and alleviation measures to cope with salt
stress. Different approaches including the selection of suitable cultivars, conventional breeding, and molecular
techniques can be used for facing salt stress tolerance. However, these techniques are tedious, costly, and
labor-intensive. Management practices are still helpful to improve the wheat performance under salinity stress.
Use of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria, and exogenous application of phytohormones, seed priming, and nutrient management are important tools to improve wheat performance under
salinity stress. In this paper, we discussed the effect of salinity stress on the wheat crop, possible mechanisms to
deal with salinity stress, and management options to improve wheat performance under salinity conditions. 相似文献

Iron is an indispensable element for vital activities in almost all living organisms. It is also a cofactor for many proteins, enzymes, and other essential complex biochemical processes. Therefore, iron trafficking is firmly regulated by Hepcidin (Hamp), which is regarded as the marker for iron accumulation. The disruption of iron homeostasis leads to oxidative stress that causes various human diseases, but this mechanism is still unclear. The aim of this study is to provide a better in vivo and in vitro understanding of how long‐term iron overload affects the gene expression and activities of some antioxidant enzymes, such as glucose 6‐phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD), 6‐phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6PGD), and glutathione reductase (GR) in the spleen. The findings of this study show that iron overload reduces the gene expression of G6pd, 6pgd, and Gr, but its actual effect was on the protein level. 相似文献

The kinetics of the uptake and efflux of 3-O-methyl-glucose in sporidia of Ustilago maydis were measured, both in active cells and in cells whose metabolic activity had been inhibited by azide and iodoacetate.The de-energized transport system proved to be carrier mediated with apparent affinity constants 13 ± 2 mM outside (K0) and 18 ± 2 mM inside (K1). The apparent maximum rate constants for the same system were 0.66 ± 0.05 mmol/l cell water per min for uptake (V+ and 0.53 ± 0.04 mmol/l cell water per min for efflux (V-. For the active system K0 = 0.08 ± 0.01, K1 > 40, V+ = 9.7 ± 0.5 and V− 1.1 ± 0.9 (in equivalent units). These results are discussed in the context of the carrier mechanism as proposed by Regen and Morgan (Regen, D.M. and Morgan, H.E. (1964) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 79, 151–166).The antifungal compound carboxin had no effect on de-energized transport but was shown to decrease both K0 and V+ in the active system. Phloretin and phlorizin were also found to be without effect on de-energized cells but the former enhanced while the latter inhibited active uptake. 相似文献

Apparent yield strains for trabecular bone are uniform within an anatomic site but can vary across site. The overall goal of this study was to characterize the contribution of inter-site differences in trabecular architecture to corresponding variations in apparent yield strains. High-resolution, small deformation finite element analyses were used to compute apparent compressive and tensile yield strains in four sites (n = 7 specimens per site): human proximal tibia, greater trochanter, femoral neck, and bovine proximal tibia. These sites display differences in compressive, but not tensile, apparent yield strains. Inter-site differences in architecture were captured implicitly in the model geometries, and these differences were isolated as the sole source of variability across sites by using identical tissue properties in all models. Thus, the effects inter-site variations in architecture on yield strain could be assessed by comparing computed yield strains across site. No inter-site differences in computed yield strains were found for either loading mode (p > 0.19), indicating that, within the context of small deformations, inter-site variations in architecture do not affect apparent yield strains. However, results of ancillary analyses designed to test the validity of the small deformation assumption strongly suggested that the propensity to undergo large deformations constitutes an important contribution of architecture to inter-site variations in apparent compressive yield strains. Large deformations substantially reduced apparent compressive, but not tensile, yield strains. These findings indicate the importance of incorporating large deformation capabilities in computational analyses of trabecular bone. This may be critical when investigating the biomechanical consequences of trabecular thinning and loss. 相似文献

Human fibroproliferative disorders like hypertrophic scarring of the skin are characterized by increased contractility and excess extracellular matrix synthesis. A beneficial role of transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta in wound healing was proposed; however, chronic stimulation by this cytokine leads to fibrosis. In the present report, the intracellular TGF-beta signaling in fibroblasts derived from hypertrophic scars and normal skin was examined. In an attempt to intervene in profibrogenic TGF-beta functions, ectopic expression of Smad7 or dominant negative Smads3/4 completely inhibited contractility of scar-derived and normal fibroblasts after suspension in collagen gels. Both cell types displayed constitutive Smad2/3 phosphorylation and (CAGA)9-MLP-Luc activity with expression and phosphorylation of Smad3 being predominant in hypertrophic scar-derived fibroblasts. Down-regulation of intrinsic signaling with various TGF-beta antagonists, e.g. soluble TGF-beta receptor, latency-associated peptide, and anti-TGF-beta1 antibodies, confirms autocrine TGF-beta stimulation of both cell populations. Further, Smad7 expression inhibited alpha1 (I) collagen and alpha-smooth muscle actin expression. In summary, our data indicate that autocrine TGF-beta/Smad signaling is involved in contractility and matrix gene expression of fibroblasts from normal and hypertrophic scars. Smad7 inhibits these processes and may exert beneficial effects on excessive scar formation. 相似文献

An image based two-dimensional (2-D) reference map of very alkaline yeast cell proteins was established by using immobilized pH gradients (IPG) up to pH 12 (IPG 6-12, IPG 9-12 and IPG 10-12) for 2-D electrophoresis and by using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry peptide mass fingerprinting for spot identification. Up to now 106 proteins with theoretical isoelectric points up to pH 11.15 and molecular mass between 7.5 and 115 kDa were localized and identified. Additionally, due to the improved resolution of steady-state isoelectric focussing with IPGs, even low copy number proteins with codon bias below 0.02 were detected and identified. 相似文献
