The stalk rot of maize caused by Fusarium moniliforme (Fm) is one of the most important emerging threats to the successful production of maize in Pakistan. In this study the physicochemical characterization of Fm was done. Diseased samples of maize were collected from Faisalabad regions. Pathogen was isolated from the infected maize plant. In physiological test different pH levels (8.5, 7.5, 6.5 and 4) were evaluated and the highest fungal growth was observed at pH 7.5 (14.50mm), and the effect of different temperature (23, 28, 33, and 38) were also assessed. At 28°C temperature (38.42mm) the highest growth was observed. Different carbon sources (glucose, sucrose, dextrose, and maltose) versus were assessed. Glucose as a carbon source showed the highest fungal growth (11.62mm). Nitrogen sources such as urea, Ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3), and potassium nitrate (KNO3) were assessed, and urea showed the highest fungal growth (34.86mm). Fm was characterized by using biochemical tests such as cellulose hydrolysis, urease activity, β-glucosidase activity, phosphate, and polyphenol oxidases activity. All these biochemical showed the positive results except urease activity test. All the experiments were conducted under lab conditions by using Randomized Complete Block Design (CRBD). To observe the difference in response of treatments, least significant difference (LSD) was used at 0.05 % probability level.","PeriodicalId":34999,"journal":{"name":"Plant Cell Biotechnology and Molecular Biology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43171841","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

SPS catalyzes the formation of Sucrose-6-phosphate which is subsequently converted to sucrose. SPS is believed to have regulatory roles in sucrose biosynthesis through interaction with Serine Kinase, 14-3-3 protein and SPP. Nevertheless, the protein-protein interaction sites on SPS are not well characterized. This study focuses on identification of functionally important residues other than the catalytic residues in SPS through evolutionary trace analysis and structural mapping of key residues. We found that other than catalytic sites, many residues are absolutely conserved and are either buried or exposed. The exposed highly conserved sites are putative protein-protein interaction sites. We have also identified residues which are class specifically conserved in SPS4. Mapping of the class specific residues on SPS crystal structure revealed their distribution close to the catalytic site. Therefore, the class specific conserved sites in SPS4 can be predicted to be influencing catalysis.","PeriodicalId":34999,"journal":{"name":"Plant Cell Biotechnology and Molecular Biology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48603065","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One type of corrosion, biocorrosion, is due to the action of microorganisms including fungi and more research concerning this cause of corrosion is needed. The aim of this manuscript is divided into two parts. Firstly, we use a Scopus bibliometric analysis of publications to develop a general overview of corrosion and biocorrosion research trends from 1900 to 2021. Secondly, using a deep analysis of all the Scopus recorded publications, we determine the different antifungal agents effective against Penicillium cyclopium, used here as an example of fungi involved in biocorrosion. The general overview demonstrates a clear progression and increase of number of publications in the two fields of corrosion and biocorrosion. However, from a total of 304,863 publications related to corrosion, only 1.5% are related to biocorrosion. The most studied metal is \"steel\" followed by \"alloy'' and \"aluminum\". For microorganisms, the most studied are Sulphate-Reducing Bacteria (SRB) followed by Acid Producing Bacteria (APB), Sulfur Oxidizing Bacteria (SOB) and Iron Bacteria (IB). In relation to antifungal agents for the fungus Penicillium cyclopium, we found sixteen antifungal agents described in the literature. We hope this study may give scientists insights to further examine the potential for antifungal applications in the reduction and remediation of biocorrosion.","PeriodicalId":34999,"journal":{"name":"Plant Cell Biotechnology and Molecular Biology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48337309","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For this, different concentrations of sodium alginate and calcium chloride were checked for optimum encapsulation. In vitro culture shoot tips of bananas were encapsulated by using different concentrations of sodium alginate i.e. (1%, 2%, 3% and 4%) and calcium chloride (50 mM, 75mM, 100 mM and 150 mM). Further, the storage viability of encapsulated shoot tips was also examined. Encapsulated shoot tips were stored at two different temperatures i.e., 4℃ and 25℃. Results indicated that the best alginate concentration for encapsulation was found at 3% (w/v) and 100 mM calcium chloride. The beads were formed globular, firm and found suitable for handling and exhibited a germination frequency of 93.33% on Murashige and Skoog medium supplemented with BAP and IAA (5.0 + 1.0 mg/l, respectively). The encapsulated shoot tips showed different responses after storage at different temperatures. The multiplication frequency declined for both tested storage temperatures i.e., 4℃ and 25℃. Encapsulated shoot tips stored at 4℃ showed survival for longer storage with a regeneration frequency of 91.33%, whereas, capsules stored at 25℃ resulted in rapid deterioration within 90 days and exhibited a maximum multiplication frequency as 61.66%. This indicates that storage at low temperatures is more effective.

Cetyl-trimethyl-ammonium-bromide (CTAB) extraction technique was applied for DNA extraction of A. solani with little modification. Molecular identification with ITS primers of isolated fungi was undertaken and a 594bp size of the band was obtained. The DNA sequence was submitted to Gen Bank having Gene Bank no. MN200940. The sequenced data was 100% similar to the Alternaria isolate Alt-C81 of Gen Bank accession code MN044802. Biological control agents were applied and data were collected at an interval of 3, 5, 7 and 10 days. The maximum inhibition percentage after 3 days (84.23%) was recorded by Azospirillum lipoferum (RB-38) while the lowest inhibition (44.84%) was recorded by Bacillus subtilis (RB-59). After 7 days of incubation, the highest inhibition (89.13%) was observed by using A. lipoferum (RB-38) and the lowest (60.57%) by Bacillus spp. (RB-43), respectively. After 10 days of incubation, the highest inhibition percentage (95.91%) was recorded by B. subtilis (RB-59) and the lowest by Bacillus thuringiensis (RB-16) with PI of 13.71% respectively.
