The pineapple reference genome: Telomere‐to‐telomere assembly, manually curated annotation, and comparative analysis

Junting Feng, Wei Zhang, Chengjie Chen, Yinlong Liang, more

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology > 66 > 10 > 2208 - 2225

Pineapple is the third most crucial tropical fruit worldwide and available in five varieties. Genomes of different pineapple varieties have been released to date; however, none of them are complete, with all exhibiting substantial gaps and representing only two of the five pineapple varieties. This significantly hinders the advancement of pineapple breeding efforts. In this study, we sequenced the...

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology > 66 > 8 > 1561 - 1570

The Sapindaceae family, encompassing a wide range of plant forms such as herbs, vines, shrubs, and trees, is widely distributed across tropical and subtropical regions. This family includes economically important crops like litchi, longan, rambutan, and ackee. With the wide application of genomic technologies in recent years, several Sapindaceae plant genomes have been decoded, leading to an accumulation...

Genome‐wide identification of XTH gene family in Musa acuminata and response analyses of MaXTHs and xyloglucan to low temperature

Yehuan Tan, Huiling Zhan, Houbin Chen, Xiaoquan Li, more

Physiologia Plantarum > 176 > 2 > n/a - n/a

Banana (Musa spp.) production is seriously threatened by low temperature (LT) in tropical and subtropical regions. Xyloglucan endotransglycosylase/hydrolases (XTHs) are considered chief enzymes in cell wall remodelling and play a central role in stress responses. However, whether MaXTHs are involved in the low temperature stress tolerance in banana is not clear. Here, the identification and characterization...

Electronic Structure Modulation of Nickel Sites by Cationic Heterostructures to Optimize Ethanol Electrooxidation Activity in Alkaline Solution

Xiulan Li, Mingchuang Chen, Yanting Ye, Chengjie Chen, more

Small > 19 > 18 > n/a - n/a

It is a good idea for efficient production of hydrogen to use ethanol oxidation reaction (EOR) in place of oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in water electrolysis process. Ni‐based non‐precious electrocatalysts are widely used in the conversion of ethanol to acetic acid. Here, different selenide heterostructures (NiCoSe, NiFeSe, and NiCuSe) are prepared in which Ni sites are regulated by transition...

MicroRNA482/2118, a miRNA superfamily essential for both disease resistance and plant development

Yanqing Zhang, Muhammad Waseem, Zaohai Zeng, Jing Xu, more

New Phytologist > 233 > 5 > 2047 - 2057

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of 21–24 nucleotides (nt) noncoding small RNAs ubiquitously distributed across the plant kingdom. miR482/2118, one of the conserved miRNA superfamilies originating from gymnosperms, has divergent main functions in core‐angiosperms. It mainly regulates NUCLEOTIDE BINDING SITE‐LEUCINE‐RICH REPEAT (NBS‐LRR) genes in eudicots, functioning as an essential component in plant...

MicroRNA528, a hub regulator modulating ROS homeostasis via targeting of a diverse set of genes encoding copper‐containing proteins in monocots

Hong Zhu, Chengjie Chen, Jun Zeng, Ze Yun, more

New Phytologist > 225 > 1 > 385 - 399

Plant microRNAs (miRNAs) regulate vital cellular processes, including responses to extreme temperatures with which reactive oxygen species (ROS) are often closely associated. In the present study, it was found that aberrant temperatures caused extensive changes in abundance to numerous miRNAs in banana fruit, especially the copper (Cu)‐associated miRNAs. Among them, miR528 was significantly downregulated...

Natural variations in the MYB transcription factor MYB31 determine the evolution of extremely pungent peppers

Zhangsheng Zhu, Binmei Sun, Wen Cai, Xin Zhou, more

New Phytologist > 223 > 2 > 922 - 938

Plants produce countless specialized metabolites crucial for their development and fitness, and many are useful bioactive compounds. Capsaicinoids are intriguing genus‐specialized metabolites that confer a pungent flavor to Capsicum fruits, and they are widely applied in different areas. Among the five domesticated Capsicum species, Capsicum chinense has a high content of capsaicinoids, which results...

Coexisting multi-stable patterns in memristor synapse-coupled Hopfield neural network with two neurons

Chengjie Chen, Jingqi Chen, Han Bao, Mo Chen, more

Nonlinear Dynamics > 2019 > 95 > 4 > 3385-3399

When possessing a potential difference between two neurons, an electromagnetic induction current appears in the Hopfield neural network (HNN), which can be emulated by a flux-controlled memristor synapse. Thus, a three-order two-neuron-based autonomous memristive HNN is presented in this paper, which is the lowest order and has not been reported in the previous studies. With the mathematical model,...

Genome-wide investigation of WRKY gene family in pineapple: evolution and expression profiles during development and stress

Tao Xie, Chengjie Chen, Chuhao Li, Jiarou Liu, more

BMC Genomics > 2018 > 19 > 1 > 1-18

Background WRKY proteins comprise a large family of transcription factors that play important roles in many aspects of physiological processes and adaption to environment. However, little information was available about the WRKY genes in pineapple (Ananas comosus), an important tropical fruits. The recent release of the whole-genome sequence of pineapple allowed us to perform a genome-wide investigation...

Coupling of microRNA‐directed phased small interfering RNA generation from long noncoding genes with alternative splicing and alternative polyadenylation in small RNA‐mediated gene silencing

Wuqiang Ma, Chengjie Chen, Yuanlong Liu, Ming Zeng, more

New Phytologist > 217 > 4 > 1535 - 1550

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) and phased small interfering RNAs (phasiRNAs) play vital regulatory roles in plant growth and development. Little is known about these small RNAs in litchi (Litchi chinensis), an economically important fruit crop widely cultivated in Southeast Asia. We profiled the litchi small RNA population with various deep‐sequencing techniques and in‐depth bioinformatic analyses. The genome‐wide...

Deficiency of long isoforms of Nfe2l1 sensitizes MIN6 pancreatic β cells to arsenite-induced cytotoxicity

Qi Cui, Jingqi Fu, Yuxin Hu, Yongfang Li, more

Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology > 2017 > 329 > C > 67-74

Increasing evidence indicates that chronic inorganic arsenic exposure is associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D), a disease of growing prevalence. Pancreatic β-cells were targeted and damaged by oxidative stress induced by arsenite. We previously showed that nuclear factor erythroid 2 like 2 (Nfe2l2)-deficient pancreatic β-cells were vulnerable to cell damage induced by oxidative stressors including...

Footprints of domestication revealed by RAD-tag resequencing in loquat: SNP data reveals a non-significant domestication bottleneck and a single domestication event

Yunsheng Wang, Muhammad Qasim Shahid, Shunquan Lin, Chengjie Chen, more

BMC Genomics > 2017 > 18 > 1 > 1-11

Background The process of crop domestication has long been a major area of research to gain insights into the history of human civilization and to understand the process of evolution. Loquat (Eriobotrya japonica Lindl.) is one of the typical subtropical fruit trees, which was domesticated in China at least 2000 years ago. In the present study, we re-sequenced the genome of nine wild loquat accessions...

Characterization and expression analysis of AcSERK2, a somatic embryogenesis and stress resistance related gene in pineapple

Jun Ma, Yehua He, Zhongyi Hu, Wentian Xu, more

Gene > 2012 > 500 > 1 > 115-123

The isolation and characterization of AcSERK2, another somatic embryogenesis receptor-like kinase (SERK) gene homolog, confirmed that there was a SERK gene family in pineapple. AcSERK2 shared high similarity to AcSERK1 and other SERKs, containing all the characteristic domains of the SERK family. The expressed recombinant protein of pET-AcSERK2 was soluble. AcSERK2 expression was effectively induced...
