The synthetic 1-oxo-indanoyl-l-isoleucine methyl ester (Ind-Ile-Me) represents a highly active mimic of octadecanoic phytohormones, which are involved in plant defenses against pathogens and pests. Seed treatments and foliar spray with Ind-Ile-Me were tested for induced resistance against downy mildew disease caused by the phytopathogenic oomycete Sclerospora graminicola in pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum) under greenhouse and field conditions. Under greenhouse conditions, a 50% protection level was achieved after seed treatment. Seed treatment in combination with foliar spray resulted in 60% protection. The induction of resistance was correlated with the enhanced activities of defense-related proteins such as phenylalanine-ammonia-lyase, peroxidase, and enhanced level of hydroxyproline-rich glycoproteins. Under field conditions, a maximum protection of 62% was recorded upon seed treatment along with foliar spray. Hence, it infers that Ind-Ile-Me can be used as a valuable protection compound at least in downy mildew disease management. 相似文献

Factors concerning aseptic culture establishment and hardening were studied in detail in choicest Silk Banana. Effect of size of sucker (small, medium and large), carbon concentration (10, 20 and 30 g/l), season of initiation (wet and dry) and pre-treatments such as segmentation and incision to the explants were studied during initiation. Further, hardening related factors such as substrates used for primary and secondary hardening, nursery nutrition (source and frequency of application) and pre-treatments for ex vitro rooting were also studied. Results revealed that small suckers were most suited for initiations with the least contamination, maximum establishment and higher percentage of greening. Lower concentration of sucrose, though delayed greening, resulted in 100?% establishment of explants. Initiations performed during the drier period were completely free from the fungal contamination and showed less bacterial contamination than those performed during the rainy season. Segmentation of explant into four parts during first subculture supported maximum shoot proliferation by overcoming apical dominance. Coir pith was observed to be the most congenial substrate during primary hardening, whereas coir pith alone or sand: red earth: coir pith (1:1:1) supported superior performance of plantlets during secondary hardening. Single application of mono ammonium phosphate improved growth of plantlets during secondary hardening. Pre-treatment with mono ammonium phosphate gave the best response in terms of rooting and hardening of un-rooted micro-shoots. Thus, the discussed methodology could help the industries to take up commercial scale propagation of Silk Banana. 相似文献

Conserved folding in retroviral proteases: crystal structure of a synthetic HIV-1 protease 总被引:57,自引:0,他引:57
A Wlodawer M Miller M Jaskólski B K Sathyanarayana E Baldwin I T Weber L M Selk L Clawson J Schneider S B Kent 《Science (New York, N.Y.)》1989,245(4918):616-621
The rational design of drugs that can inhibit the action of viral proteases depends on obtaining accurate structures of these enzymes. The crystal structure of chemically synthesized HIV-1 protease has been determined at 2.8 angstrom resolution (R factor of 0.184) with the use of a model based on the Rous sarcoma virus protease structure. In this enzymatically active protein, the cysteines were replaced by alpha-amino-n-butyric acid, a nongenetically coded amino acid. This structure, in which all 99 amino acids were located, differs in several important details from that reported previously by others. The interface between the identical subunits forming the active protease dimer is composed of four well-ordered beta strands from both the amino and carboxyl termini and residues 86 to 94 have a helical conformation. The observed arrangement of the dimer interface suggests possible designs for dimerization inhibitors. 相似文献

In an attempt to find a suitable alternative to the otherwise perilous chemical control strategy of disease management, the
amino acid proline was evaluated for its efficiency to elicit resistance in pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.) against downy mildew disease caused bySclerospora graminicola (Sacc.) Schroet both under greenhouse and field conditions. Proline treatment to seeds at 50 mM concentration for 3 h, significantly
enhanced the seed germination and seedling vigor of pearl millet in comparison with the control. The same concentration and
duration of seed treatment protected the pearl millet plants from downy mildew by offering 58% protection under greenhouse
and 67% protection under field conditions. Studies revealed that 3 days were required for proline-treated plants to develop
resistance, which was systemic and was sustained throughout the life of the plants. Apart from disease protection, proline
was also found effective in enhancing vegetative and reproductive growth of the plants, as evidenced by the increase in height,
fresh weight, leaf area, tillering capacity, 1000-seed weight and grain yield in comparison with the control plants.

SummaryTo develop a micropropagation protocol for the elite chrysanthemum cultivar, ‘Arka Ravi’, in vitro cultures were established using surface-sterilised nodal microcuttings (1.0 – 1.2 cm) on semi-solid MS medium. Microbial contamination was observed in 22% of cultures during the initiation phase. Cultures that were devoid of obvious contamination were transferred to culture bottles containing MS medium supplemented with 30 g l–1 sucrose, 2.5 g l–1 Phytagel® and either benzyl adenine (BA) or kinetin (KIN) supplied at 0, 1, 5, 10, or 20 µM, and were monitored, over eight in vitro passages, for their growth and microbial association. Shoot-tip and nodal microcuttings yielded a single shoot, coupled with rooting, in medium devoid of BA or KIN which was the best medium for continuous micropropagation. Rooting was inhibited with increasing concentrations of BA or KIN, and one or more shorter shoots with condensed internodes were induced, resulting in low rates of propagation. Culture indexing (i.e., testing the medium and tissue from visibly clean cultures using enriched bacteriological media) revealed quiescent endophytic bacteria associated with 80 – 100% of such cultures. Three distinct colony morphotypes were isolated and were identified as Ralstonia, Enterobacter, and Methylobacterium spp., based on their 16S rRNA gene sequences. These endophytes did not interfere with normal micropropagation, but tended to grow actively and outgrow older cultures, especially at higher cytokinin concentrations. Stable micropropagation of ‘Arka Ravi’ chrysanthemum for ≥ 2 years, with their resident endophytic bacteria in a covert form, was achieved on basal MS medium with > 90% shoot growth and rooting, a four-to-five-fold propagation rate at each 2 – 3 week sub-culture cycle, and with > 90% establishment of rooted plantlets ex vitro. These results suggest that in vitro cultures of chrysanthemum often harbour endophytes with no obvious indications of their presence or with possible hidden effects during micropropagation. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Finger millet is a major food crop as well as feed and fodder for livestock, especially in regions of southern India. A sturdy crop to fluctuating environmental conditions, it can be cultivated in all seasons of the year. Leaf, neck and finger blast caused by Pyricularia grisea Sacc. and Bipolaris setariae (Saw.) Shoem, as well as leaf spot disease, Bipolaris nodulosa (Berk & M.A.Curtis) Shoem, are major production constraints in southern India. Apart from environmental conditions, the use of harvested seeds by farmers is a major reason for disease prevalence. Benzophenone analogues have been investigated for controlling phytopathogenic fungi. In addition, the most important applications of azetidin‐2‐ones are as antibiotics. Based on this information, the present study was conducted to explore the antifungal activity of integrated 2‐azetidinonyl and 1,3,4‐oxadiazoles moieties into a benzophenone framework. RESULTS: A simple high‐yielding method for the integration of heterocyclic rings, namely 2‐azetidinonyl, at the benzophenone nucleus has been achieved, starting from substituted 2‐hydroxybenzophenones under mild conditions on a wet solid surface using microwave irradiation. In the present study, an array of newly synthesised compounds, 2‐azetidinonyl‐5‐(2‐benzoylphenoxy)methyl‐1,3,4‐oxadiazoles, were screened for their antifungal property against blast and leaf spot causing fungi associated with the seeds of finger millet, cv. Indof‐9. CONCLUSION: Two of the newly synthesised compounds showed promising effects in depleting the incidence of seed‐borne pathogenic fungi of finger millet. The suppression of Pyricularia grisea and Bipolaris setariae resulted in enhanced seed germination and seedling growth. Copyright © 2009 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

BACKGROUND: The present study investigated the effect of seven Bacillus‐species plant‐growth‐promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) seed treatments on the induction of disease resistance in cowpea against mosaic disease caused by the blackeye cowpea mosaic strain of bean common mosaic virus (BCMV). RESULTS: Initially, although all PGPR strains recorded significant enhancement of seed germination and seedling vigour, GBO3 and T4 strains were very promising. In general, all strains gave reduced BCMV incidence compared with the non‐bacterised control, both under screen‐house and under field conditions. Cowpea seeds treated with Bacillus pumilus (T4) and Bacillus subtilis (GBO3) strains offered protection of 42 and 41% against BCMV under screen‐house conditions. Under field conditions, strain GBO3 offered 34% protection against BCMV. The protection offered by PGPR strains against BCMV was evaluated by indirect enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), with lowest immunoreactive values recorded in cowpea seeds treated with strains GBO3 and T4 in comparison with the non‐bacterised control. In addition, it was observed that strain combination worked better in inducing resistance than individual strains. Cowpea seeds treated with a combination of strains GBO3 + T4 registered the highest protection against BCMV. CONCLUSION: PGPR strains were effective in protecting cowpea plants against BCMV under both screen‐house and field conditions by inducing resistance against the virus. Thus, it is proposed that PGPR strains, particularly GBO3, could be potential inducers against BCMV and growth enhancers in cowpea. Copyright © 2009 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

Silk Banana is amongst the most popular groups of bananas grown in different parts of the world. However, the commercial scale cultivation requires identification of superior genotypes with desirable attributes including growth, yield, quality and resistance to Panama wilt disease which is a major concern. Panama disease caused by the fungus Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense has been wreaking havoc in banana plantations throughout the world. A large number of varieties fall prey to the pathogen and hence world’s banana production has been threatened to a considerable extent, Silk Banana being the most vulnerable. Long term use of chemicals has not only failed to provide protection against the disease but has also raised concern about the environmental health. Resistance breeding is thus only viable alternative; however, breeding in banana is hindered by a number of inherent problems. In this communication, a systematic approach was proposed taking a typical case of Silk Banana var. Nanjanagud Rasabale to preselect lines possessing Panama wilt resistance and other desired traits. The proposed methodology comprised of identification of spontaneous variants in growing regions of the variety and their subsequent screening using a multi-pronged strategy. A number of lines exhibiting superiority in terms of tolerance to panama wilt, precocity, plant stature, physicochemical and shelf life related attributes have been reported. Considering overall performance, six promising lines were identified. This methodology has wider applicability as it could be effectively exploited with suitable modifications for identifying lines with desired traits in other varieties of banana. 相似文献

Mass multiplication of non-Cavendish group of bananas has been limited due to non availability of reliable multiplication protocol and higher cost of production. The process of root induction and hardening are considered to be the most capital and labour intensive activities in micropropagation of any species. Carbon sources being one of the prime components governing the ex vitro survival of the plants need to be studied to maximize the success rate. Present is an attempt to study the effect of kind and concentration of carbon source on concurrent ex vitro rooting and hardening (CEVRH) in Ney Poovan banana. The results revealed that kind and concentration of carbon source present in the nutrient pool at the time of multiplication had a significant effect on the ex vitro performance of the plantlets. Better ex vitro rooting and hardening performance was exhibited by the shoots obtained from glucose (2?%) supplemented medium. Though rooting percentage was reduced in this treatment, considering the superior performance of the plantlets, it could be recommended to the commercial units for large-scale propagation of Ney Poovan banana plants. The concept of simultaneous rooting and hardening could be a boon for the varieties showing poor multiplication rate resulting in their higher cost of production. 相似文献

Structure of complex of synthetic HIV-1 protease with a substrate-based inhibitor at 2.3 A resolution 总被引:22,自引:0,他引:22
M Miller J Schneider B K Sathyanarayana M V Toth G R Marshall L Clawson L Selk S B Kent A Wlodawer 《Science (New York, N.Y.)》1989,246(4934):1149-1152
The structure of a complex between a peptide inhibitor with the sequence N-acetyl-Thr-Ile-Nle-psi[CH2-NH]-Nle-Gln-Arg.amide (Nle, norleucine) with chemically synthesized HIV-1 (human immunodeficiency virus 1) protease was determined at 2.3 A resolution (R factor of 0.176). Despite the symmetric nature of the unliganded enzyme, the asymmetric inhibitor lies in a single orientation and makes extensive interactions at the interface between the two subunits of the homodimeric protein. Compared with the unliganded enzyme, the protein molecule underwent substantial changes, particularly in an extended region corresponding to the "flaps" (residues 35 to 57 in each chain), where backbone movements as large as 7 A are observed. 相似文献
