    Abstract We report a metallaphotoredox strategy for stereodivergent three-component carboallylation of terminal alkynes with allylic carbonates and alkyl trifluoroborates. This redox-neutral dual catalytic protocol utilizes commercially available organic photocatalyst 4CzIPN and nickel catalysts to trigger a radical addition/alkenyl-allyl coupling sequence, enabling straightforward access to functionalized 1,4-dienes in a highly chemo-, regio-selective, and stereodivergent fashion. This reaction features a broad substrate generality and a tunable triplet energy transfer control with pyrene as a simple triplet energy modulator, offering a facile synthesis of complex

    Abstract BACKGROUND: Kiwifruit rot is an important disease caused by different fungal pathogens, which can lead to huge economic loss in the kiwifruit industry. The aims of this study were to discover an effective botanical compound that significantly inhibits the pathogens causing kiwifruit rot, evaluate its control efficacy against this disease, and reveal the underlying mechanisms. RESULTS: A strain of Fusarium tricinctum (GF‐1), isolated from diseased kiwifruit, could cause fruit rot in both Actinidia chinensis var. chinensis and Actinidia chinensis var. deliciosa. Different botanical chemicals were used for antifungal activity test against GF‐1 and thymol was the most effective one with a 50% effective concentration (EC₅₀) of 30.98 mg L⁻¹. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of thymol against GF‐1 was 90 mg L⁻¹. Control efficacy of thymol against kiwifruit rot was evaluated and the results indicated that thymol could effectively decrease the occurrence and spread of kiwifruit rot. The mechanisms underlying the antifungal activity of thymol against F. tricinctum were investigated, and it showed that thymol could significantly damage the ultrastructure, destroy the plasma membrane integrity, and instantaneously increase energy metabolisms of F. tricinctum. Further investigations indicated that thymol could extend shelf life of kiwifruit by increasing their storability. CONCLUSION: Thymol can effectively inhibit F. tricinctum that is one of the causal agents of kiwifruit rot. Multiple modes of action are involved in the antifungal activity. The results of this study indicate that thymol can be a promising botanical fungicide to control kiwifruit rot and provide useful references for thymol application in agriculture system. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

    Abstract Sulfur has been previously reported to modulate plant growth and exhibit significant anti-microbial activities. However, the mechanism underlying its diverse effects on plant pathogens has not been elucidated completely. The present study conducted the two-year field experiment of sulfur application to control kiwifruit canker from 2017 to 2018. For the first time, our study uncovered activation of plant disease resistance by salicylic acid after sulfur application in kiwifruit. The results indicated that when the sulfur concentration was 1.5-2.0 kg m

    Abstract Bacterial cancer caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa) is a major threat to kiwifruit in the world, and there is still a lack of effective control measures. The field of bacterial detection needs a fast, easy-to-use and sensitive identification platform. The current bacterial identification methods are lack of time efficiency, which brings problems to many sectors of society. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) and electrochemistry (EC) have been studied as possible candidates for bacterial detection because of their high sensitivity for the detection of biomolecules. In this work, SERS, EC and electrochemical surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (EC-SERS) were used for the first time to study the adsorption and EC behavior of Psa on the surface of nanostructured silver electrodes. Two different Raman spectra of a single analyte were obtained, and this dual detection was realized. Silver nanoparticles with iodide and calcium ions (Ag@ICNPs) were synthesized as SERS substrates significantly enhanced the characteristic signal peaks of Psa, and the limit of detection (LOD) is as low as 1.0 × 10

    Abstract This paper addresses the issue of artificial visual inspection being overly reliant on subjective experience and the difficulty for the human eye to accurately identify dense and non-significant defects. To solve this problem, we have implemented an automatic object detection algorithm based on an improved version of YOLOv5.First, we use the K-means++ clustering algorithm to automatically calculate the Anchor of the model to reduce the effect of the close location of the initial clustering centers on the clustering of the sample data.Second, we add the Coordinate Attention (CA) attention mechanism to the model to allow the model to better capture and understand important features in the images. Then, we add a new detection layer with a downsampling multiplier of 4 to the Neck network to improve the precision of the model. Finally, we use the lightweight network MobileNetV3 instead of YOLOv5's backbone network to reduce the model detection time overhead.Our model achieves 85.87% mAP, which is 6.44% better than the YOLOv5 network, and the detection time for a single image is only 54ms, which is 50% faster than the YOLOv5 network. After testing, we have proven that our proposed algorithm can quickly and accurately detect the condition of bearing appearance defects, improving detection efficiency and reducing costs.

    Abstract Background: Kiwifruit bacterial canker, caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa), is a destructive disease worldwide. Resistance genes that respond to Psa infection urgently need to be identified for controlling this disease. Laccase is mainly involved in the synthesis of lignin in the plant cell wall and plays a prominent role in plant growth and resistance to pathogen infection. However, the role of laccase in kiwifruit has not been reported, and whether laccase is pivotal in the response to Psa infection remains unclear.
    Results: We conducted a bioinformatics analysis to identify 55 laccase genes (AcLAC1-AcLAC55) in the kiwifruit genome. These genes were classified into five cluster groups (I-V) based on phylogenetic analysis, with cluster groups I and II having the highest number of members. Analysis of the exon-intron structure revealed that the number of exons varied from 1 to 8, with an average of 5 introns. Our evolutionary analysis indicated that fragment duplication played a key role in the expansion of kiwifruit laccase genes. Furthermore, evolutionary pressure analysis suggested that AcLAC genes were under purifying selection. We also performed a cis-acting element analysis and found that AcLAC genes contained multiple hormone (337) and stress signal (36) elements in their promoter regions. Additionally, we investigated the expression pattern of laccase genes in kiwifruit stems and leaves infected with Psa. Our findings revealed that laccase gene expression levels in the stems were higher than those in the leaves 5 days after inoculation with Psa. Notably, AcLAC2, AcLAC4, AcLAC17, AcLAC18, AcLAC26, and AcLAC42 showed significantly higher expression levels (p < 0.001) compared to the non-inoculated control (0 d), suggesting their potential role in resisting Psa infection. Moreover, our prediction indicated that 21 kiwifruit laccase genes are regulated by miRNA397, they could potentially act as negative regulators of lignin biosynthesis.
    Conclusions: These results are valuable for further analysis of the resistance function and molecular mechanism of laccases in kiwifruit.
