Phosphorus (P), in the form of phosphate ion (Pi), is a vital element contributing in biomolecule structures, metabolic reactions, signaling pathways and energy transfer within the living cells. The objective of the present study was to assess the influence of fungal infection on Pi metabolism in compare to the effects of phosphate stress in Arabidopsis. Quantification of total P contents showe...

In transgenic tobacco plants containing a pea ferredoxin transcribed region (Fed-1) driven by the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter (P35S), light acts at a post-transcriptional level to control the abundance of Fed-1 mRNA in green leaves. To determine whether the light signal for this response involves photosynthesis, we treated transgenic seedlings with or without 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,...

Rice stripe disease, caused by Rice stripe virus (RSV), is one of the most serious rice diseases in temperate and subtropical regions of the world. Since RSV is not transmissible mechanically, an insect transmission test was the original basis for identification of the viral population and cultivar resistance. A simple, rapid and reliable method is described by which virus-free small brown plan...
