Salinity and drought often affect plant growth and crop yields. Cloning and identification of salinity and drought stress inducible promoters is of great significance for their use in the genetic improvement of crop resistance. Previous studies showed that phosphatidylinositol synthase is involved in plant salinity and drought stress responses but its promoter has not been characterized by far....

Phosphorus deficiency is one of the major nutrient stresses affecting plant growth. Plants respond to phosphate (Pi) deficiency through multiple strategies, including the synthesis of high-affinity Pi transporters. In this study, the expression pattern of one putative wheat high-affinity phosphate transporter, TaPT2, was examined in roots and leaves under Pi-deficient conditions. TaPT2 transcri...

Aux/IAA (Auxin/Indole- 3- Acetic Acid) family, one of the early response gene family auxin signals, is involved in regulating numerous aspects plant growth and development. As an important economic plant, identification  family genes pecan great significance. In this study, a total 37 were identified genome using bioinformatics method, subcellular localization revealed that all its members...

The rhizosphere is the soil that surrounds, and influenced by, roots of a plant. It considered one most complex ecosystems on planet due to intense interactions occur between plants microorganisms, as well competition occurs among microbial components. Due this beneficial interactions, contribution paramount relevance in terms chemical, physical, biological characteristics allow plant crop deve...

BACKGROUND Plasma membrane Ca(2+)ATPase is a transport protein in the plasma membrane of cells and helps in removal of calcium (Ca(2+)) from the cell, hence regulating Ca(2+) level within cells. Though plant Ca(2+)ATPases have been shown to be involved in plant stress responses but their promoter regions have not been well studied. RESULTS The 1478 bp promoter sequence of rice plasma membrane...

Potassium (K) is an essential macronutrient for plant growth and reproduction. HAK5, an Arabidopsis high-affinity K transporter gene, plays an important role in K uptake. Its expression is up-regulated in response to K deprivation and is rapidly down-regulated when sufficient K levels have been re-established. To identify transcription factors regulating HAK5, an Arabidopsis TF FOX (Transcripti...

Parasitic diseases causing considerable losses are one of the most common infections in humans, animals, and birds. This review emphasizes devastation poultry industry by parasites use bioactive components plants as an alternative to control damage. Synthetic medicines that used anthelmintic lead emergence resistance helminths well adversely affect birds reduce their production. Different compo...

Paenibacillus sp. XY044 is an endophytic bacterium isolated from the stem of a tea plant (Camellia sinensis cv. Maoxie). Here, we present the draft genome sequence of XY044, which includes genes encoding features related to plant growth promotion and biocontrol.

The regulation of innate immunity and plant growth, along with the trade-off between them, affects the defense and recovery mechanisms of the plant after it is attacked by pathogens. Although it is known that hormonal crosstalk plays a major role in regulating interaction of plant growth and PAMP-triggered immunity, the relationship between plant growth and effector-triggered immunity (ETI) rem...
