The nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is extensively involved in physiological, pathological, and stress response processes in humans and plants. However, the NMD in phytopathogenic fungi has not yet been thoroughly investigated. In this study, we identified and performed domain analysis on the cor...

Aeromonas hydrophila isolates from clinical cases (n=43) were tested against 8 antimicrobial agents and typed by outer membrane protein (OMP) pattern by using sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis. All isolates were resistant to ampicillin (MICs, ≥16 μg mL−1) and sulfamonomethoxine (MICs, ≥64 μ...

Abstract: Understanding the waxy maize starch physicochemical properties response to heat stress during grain filling could improve starch quality. The effects of heat stress during early (1–15 days after pollination, DAP) and late (16–30 DAP) grain filling stages on the starch physicochemical prope...

Streptococcus suis is a Gram-positive pathogen that causes serious diseases in pigs. In addition to S. suis serotype 2 (SS2), S. suis serotype 9 (SS9) is another prevalent serotype, which is frequently isolated from the organs of diseased pigs in China. An immunoproteomic-based approach was develope...

Excessive or insufficient application of fertilizer has raised broader concerns regarding soil and environmental degradation. One-time application of slow release fertilizer (SF) has been widely used to reduce yield gap with potential maize yield and improve nitrogen use efficiency (NUE). A 2-year f...

Optimal planting density and proper fertilization method are important factors to improve maize yield and nutrient utilization. A two-year (2016 and 2017) field experiment was conducted with three plant densities (6.0, 7.5 and 9.0 plants m–2) and three fertilization modes (no fertilizer, 0F; one-off...

Post-silking high temperature is one of the abiotic factors that affects waxy maize (Zea mays L. sinensis Kulesh) growth in southern China. We conducted a pot trial in 2016–2017 to study the effects of post-silking daytime heat stress (35°C) on the activities of enzymes involved in leaf carbon and n...
