Pigeonpea is one of the important legume crops with high protein content and nutritional traits. It has enormous potency for its widespread adoption by farming communities. It is affected by various kinds of biotic and abiotic stresses. In the context, of biotic stresses Sterility mosaic disease (SMD) is one of the severe diseases in pigeonpea which ultimately lead to the drastic yield loss. The virus belongs to the genus Emaravirus, family- Fimoviridae. SMD is associated with two diverse types of Emaravirus, Pigeonpea sterility mosaic virus1 (PPSMV-1) and Pigeonpea sterility mosaic virus 2 (PPSMV-2). It is transmitted by the mite (Aceria cajani), mainly environmental contributing to the feasibility for the mites for the inoculation of the virus. The SMD is mainly governed by two genes SV1 that includes the dominant allele and serves as an inhibitory action on the resistance of the SV2. Methods for identification of the virus include RT-PCR, DIBA and ELISA using alkaline phosphatase or penicillinase. To control SMV disease farmers generally adopted intercropping methods. There are few potential drugs have been identified for the administration of the disease such as 0.1% Fenazaquin, Dicofol, Imidacloripid, Carbosulfan; Spiromesifin includes the inhibition of the mite inoculation on the pigeonpea plant. The present review describes compressive and systematic insights on SMV protein targets and potential drugs that could be utilized as the presumed drug targets for the finding of true drugs against the SMD in pigeonpea.

Effect of Methyl Jasmonate on the Expression of Transcription Factors in Wild Jujube Seedlings under Salt Stress

Published on: 8th April, 2024

Methyl Jasmonate (MeJA) can be used as a signal molecule to regulate the expression of resistance genes in the resistance to abiotic stress, thus improving the salt tolerance of wild jujube. Among the resistance genes combined with methyl jasmonate, transcription factors play an important role in response to salt stress. However, the interaction of transcription factors in different tissues under salt stress and the regulation of transcription factors by MeJA remain unclear. In this study, the effects of MeJA on transcription factor expression in wild jujube under salt stress were investigated, and the differences in transcription factor expression among different tissues were compared. It was found that MeJA could increase the type and quantity of transcription factors responding to salt stress. The types of transcription factors responding to salt stress were roughly the same among different tissues, but the quantity and expression of the transcription factors were significantly different. The results of transcription factor co-expression analysis showed that transcription factors play synergistic roles in the face of abiotic stress, which can provide preferable genes for subsequent transgenic work.
