can infect many crops, causing large agricultural production losses. It is important to study the parasitism mechanism of to control its harm. In this experiment, the HY13M and TE9M from Tacheng Prefecture and Hami City in Xinjiang, respectively, were used to analyze the parasitical mechanism of by means of transcriptome and proteome analyses. The parasitic capacity of TE9M was significantly stronger than that of HY13M in . The results showed that the DEGs and DEPs were prominently enriched in the cell wall metabolism pathways, including "cell wall organization or biogenesis", "cell wall organization", and "cell wall". Moreover, the functions of the pectinesterase enzyme gene (), which is involved in the cell wall metabolism of in its parasitism, were studied by means HIGS. The number and weight of were significantly reduced when , which encodes a cell-wall-degrading protease, was silenced, indicating that it positively regulates parasitism. Thus, these results suggest that the cell wall metabolism pathway is involved in differentiation of the parasitic ability and that the gene plays an important role in 's parasitism.

Angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels from pre-existing vasculature, is a crucial process in both physiological and pathological contexts, including cancer. Phospholipases A (PLAs), enzymes found in snake venoms, have attracted attention due to their potential antiangiogenic properties. In this study, we explored the antiangiogenic effects of PLA isoforms isolated from Bothrops diporus venom using a combination of in vivo and ex vivo models.

The growing challenges posed by global warming and the demand for sustainable food and feed resources underscore the need for robust microbial platforms in bioprocessing. Thermotolerant yeasts have emerged as promising candidates due to their ability to thrive at elevated temperatures and other industrially relevant stresses. This review examines the industrial potential of thermotolerant yeasts in the context of climate change, emphasizing how their resilience can lead to more energy-efficient and cost-effective bioprocesses.

Osthole exhibits strong inhibitory activity against phytopathogenic fungi; however, its antifungal mechanism remains unclear. This study assessed osthole's inhibitory effects on several phytopathogenic fungi, revealing a half-maximal effective concentration of 70.03 μg/ml against the hyphal growth of .

This study investigated the effects of a low-frequency polarized electric field (LFPEF) on postharvest disease resistance and storage quality of grapes. LFPEF treatment (3 h/d) significantly reduced weight loss, suppressed lesion expansion, and maintained fruit firmness by reinforcing cell wall integrity and enhancing defense-related enzyme activities. Mechanistic analyses indicated that LFPEF activated Ca signaling, promoted calcium accumulation, and upregulated calcium sensor genes, thereby contributing to membrane stabilization.
