Summary: In this study, transcriptome and metabolome analysis were used to investigate the resistance mechanism of Brassica oleracea against black spot disease. The results showed that the phenylpropanoid pathway plays a key role in resistance, and cinnamic acid may be a potential molecule causing resistance difference. Additionally, certain related genes and indolic glucosinolates were found to be significantly upregulated in resistant lines, providing a theoretical foundation for breeding.

Summary: This study investigated alterations in mineral status in tomato plants' leaves exposed to early blight caused by Alternaria solani. Significant variations in mineral content were observed in leaves of resistant and susceptible tomato plants after the disease infection, with the resistant variety Riograndae showing the highest mineral content and the susceptible variety T-88572 showing the lowest mineral content. These alterations in mineral profiling can potentially be used as biochemical markers to identify and develop resistant sources against early blight in tomatoes.

Summary: The primary vector for dengue viruses is the mosquito Aedes aegypti, but cases have significantly increased due to insecticide resistance and habitat expansion. In this study, lipidomics was used to analyze the lipid profiles of dengue-resistant and susceptible Ae. aegypti populations, and identified changes in the lipidome associated with viral entry, replication, and exit from midgut cells. This research provides insights for developing stable, dengue-resistant strains of Ae. aegypti.

Summary: Appropriate plant spacing in the canopy can increase seed yield. Row spacing and sowing density affect plant light and nutrition, but have no significant effect on yield and number of pods. Lower plant density improves seed yield and weight but increases pod height.

Summary: In this study, nine CsRSs were identified from the tea plant genome database and classified into five groups in the phylogenetic tree. Expression level analysis showed that the CsRSs varied in different parts of the tea plant. Transcriptome data showed that CsRSs could respond to persistent drought and cold acclimation. Except for CsRS5 and CsRS9, the expression pattern of all CsRSs increased at 12 h and decreased at 30 h during the withering process of white tea, consistent with the change trend of the Raf content. Furthermore, combining yeast one-hybrid assays with expression analysis, we found that CsDBB could potentially regulate the expression of CsRS8. Our results provide a new perspective for further research into the characterization of CsRS genes and the formation of the white tea flavour.
