  1. 1. Molecular mechanisms in actinorhizal symbioses

    Författare :Tomas Persson; Katharina Pawlowski; Helge Küster; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Plant Physiology; växtfysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : The symbiosis between the nitrogen fixing acinobacterium Frankia and its actinorhizal host plant is very old and their co-evolution has shaped their niche in the environment. Nitrogen is most often the limiting element in soil, and symbiotic plants can, with the help of their micrsymbionts, compete in an efficient way. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Jasmonates in root nodule development

    Författare :Anna Maria Zdyb; Katharina Pawlowski; Sofie Goormachtig; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Lotus japonicus; jasmonic acid; actinorhizal; rhizobia; Frankia; root nodule; lipoxygenase; allene oxide cyclase; allene oxide synthase; Casuarina; Datisca; Medicago; Plant physiology; Växtfysiologi; växtfysiologi; Plant Physiology;

    Sammanfattning : Jasmonic acid (JA), its derivatives and its precursor form a group of phytohormones, the jasmonates, representing signal molecules involved in plant stress responses, in the defense against pathogens as well as in development. Elevated levels of JA have been shown to play a role in arbuscular mycorrhiza and in the induction of nitrogen-fixing root nodules. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Melanization and Hemocyte Homeostasis  in the Freshwater Crayfish, Pacifastacus leniusculus

    Författare :Chadanat Noonin; Irene Söderhäll; Kenneth Söderhäll; Smith Valerie; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; melanization; prophenoloxidase; caspase; hematopoiesis; thymosin; astakine; circadian rhythm; reactive oxygen species; tyrosinase; prokineticin;

    Sammanfattning : Blood cells or hemocytes play important roles in immunity. They are a major source of many immune-related molecules such as antibodies in adaptive immunity of vertebrates and prophenoloxidase (proPO) in invertebrates. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Borrelia channel-forming proteins : structure and function

    Författare :Ignas Bunikis; Sven Bergström; Steven Norris; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Borrelia; Lume disease; relapsing fever; BesC; drug efflux; DipA; P66; porins; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Sammanfattning : Borrelia is a Gram-negative, corkscrew-shaped bacterium transmitted by infected ticks or lice. Borreliae are subdivided into pathogens of two diseases: Lyme disease, caused mainly by B. burgdorferi, B. afzelii and B. LÄS MER

  5. 5. The actinorhizal plant Datisca glomerata : interpreting its symbiotic adaptations by omics-based comparisons with model and non-model organisms

    Författare :Marco Salgado; Katharina Pawlowski; Daniel Lundin; Rene Geurts; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Root nodule symbiosis; nitrogen fixation; actinorhizal; Datisca glomer-ata; Frankia; nodule development; defensin; antimicrobial; carboxylate transporter; phylogenomics; transcriptomics; Plant Physiology; växtfysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Nitrogen is the element that most often limits plant growth and development. Common agricultural practices rely on the application of large quantities of industrially-produced nitrogen fertilizer, which poses a worldwide environmental threat. Sustainable agriculture encourages the use of biologically fixed nitrogen. LÄS MER
