By: W. Jung n, R. Sharma-Shivappa n & P. Kolar n

author keywords: miscanthus; hydrolysis; lignin; inhibition; pretreatment
TL;DR: Though enzyme binding onto lignin isolates was observed, hydrolysis in the presence of these isolates did not have a significant (p > 0.05) impact on glucose production from cellobiose and Avicel. (via Semantic Scholar)

Dominant, Heritable Resistance to Stewart’s Wilt in Maize Is Associated with an Enhanced Vascular Defense Response to Infection with <i>Pantoea stewartii

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions®, 32(12), 1581–1597.

By: P. Doblas-Ibáñez*, K. Deng*, M. Vasquez*, L. Giese*, P. Cobine*, J. Kolkman*, H. King*, T. Jamann* ...

Contributors: P. Doblas-Lbéfiez, K. Deng*, M. Vasquez*, L. Giese*, P. Cobine*, J. Kolkman*, H. King*, T. Jamann* ...

author keywords: bacterial pathogenesis; electron-dense materials; maize; Pantoea stewartii; plant responses to pathogens; secretion and cell wall changes; Stewart's bacterial wilt; type-3 secretion; vascular defense response; WtsE; xylem-dwelling bacteria
MeSH headings : Disease Resistance / genetics; Genome, Plant / genetics; Pantoea / physiology; Seedlings / microbiology; Xylem / microbiology; Zea mays / genetics; Zea mays / microbiology
TL;DR: It is shown that seedlings of maize inbred lines with pan1 mutations are highly resistant to Stewart's bacterial wilt of maize (SW), and it is proposed that this vascular defense response restricts P. stewartii spread through the vasculature, reducing both systemic bacterial colonization of the xylem network and consequent wilting.

author keywords: Pesticide mitigation; Environmental exposure assessment; Environmental exposure concentrations; Pesticide transport; Vegetative filter strip
MeSH headings : Environmental Exposure; Pesticides
TL;DR: This research builds upon the conclusion of previous single-event studies that the mechanistic mass-balance and refit Sabbagh empirical equation were both valid for EEAs and represents a reasonable option for regulatory agencies that prefer mechanistic approaches. (via Semantic Scholar)
