HIGH-THROUGHPUT LC-ESI-MS/MS METABOLOMICS APPROACH REVEALS REGULATION OF METABOLITES RELATED TO DIVERSE FUNCTIONS IN MATURE FRUIT OF GRAFTED WATERMELON

High-Throughput LC-ESI-MS/MS Metabolomics Approach Reveals Regulation of Metabolites Related to Diverse Functions in Mature Fruit of Grafted Watermelon

Grafting has been reported as a factor regulating the metabolome of a plant.Therefore, a comprehensive metabolic profile and comparative analysis of metabolites were conducted from fully mature fruit of pumpkin-grafted watermelon (PGW) and a self-rooted watermelon (SRW).Widely targeted LC-ESI-MS/MS metabolomics approach facilitated the simultaneous

Functional connectivity within sensorimotor cortical and striatal regions is regulated by sepsis in a sex-dependent manner

Sepsis is a state of systemic immune dysregulation and organ failure that is frequently associated with severe brain disability.Epidemiological studies have indicated that younger females have better prognosis and clinical outcomes relative to males, though the sex-dependent response of the brain to sepsis during post-sepsis recovery remains largel

Intramolecular interaction influences binding of the Flax L5 and L6 resistance proteins to their AvrL567 ligands.

L locus resistance (R) proteins are nucleotide binding (NB-ARC) leucine-rich repeat (LRR) proteins from flax (Linum usitatissimum) that provide race-specific resistance to the causal agent of flax rust disease, Melampsora lini.L5 and L6 are two alleles of the L locus that directly recognize variants of the fungal effector AvrL567.In this study, we
