Journal ArticleDOI
Direct comparison of culture-dependent and culture-independent molecular approaches reveal the diversity of fungal endophytic communities in stems of grapevine (Vitis vinifera)
Asha J. Dissanayake,Witoon Purahong,Tesfaye Wubet,Kevin D. Hyde,Wei Zhang,Haiying Xu,Guojun Zhang,Chunyuan Fu,Mei Liu,Xing Qikai,Xinghong Li,Jiye Yan +11 more
TL;DR: The importance of applying both culture-dependent and culture-independent approaches to study the fungal endophytic community composition in Vitis vinifera is marked, as the results related to stem are consistent for fungal community composition and richness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biodiversity of fungi on Vitis vinifera L. revealed by traditional and high-resolution culture-independent approaches
Ruvishika S. Jayawardena,Witoon Purahong,Wei Zhang,Tesfaye Wubet,Xinghong Li,Mei Liu,Wensheng Zhao,Kevin D. Hyde,Jianhua Liu,Jiye Yan +9 more
TL;DR: This study compares traditional and high-resolution culture-independent approaches using the same set of samples to study the saprotrophic fungi on Vitis vinifera, which support previous observations, that dead plant material in grape vineyards can be the primary sources of disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Species of Botryosphaeriaceae involved in grapevine dieback in China
Jiye Yan,Yue Xie,Wei Zhang,Yong Wang,Jian-Kui Liu,Kevin D. Hyde,Robert C. Seem,Guozhen Zhang,Zhong-Yue Wang,Sheng-Wei Yao,Xian-Jin Bai,Asha J. Dissanayake,You-Liang Peng,Xinghong Li +13 more
TL;DR: Morphological and multi-gene phylogenetic analyses confirmed that Botryosphaeria dothidea, Diplodia seriata, Lasiodiplodia theobromae and Neofusicoccum parvum are associated with different grapevine dieback symptoms, and considerable differences in the geographical distribution of BotryOSphaeriaceae species in China were revealed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oral Administration of a Select Mixture of Bacillus Probiotics Affects the Gut Microbiota and Goblet Cell Function following Escherichia coli Challenge in Newly Weaned Pigs of Genotype MUC4 That Are Supposed To Be Enterotoxigenic E. coli F4ab/ac Receptor Negative
TL;DR: Oral administration of BLS mix reprograms the gut microbiota and enhances goblet cell function to ameliorate enteritis and improve understanding of the protective role of probiotics against Escherichia coli infection in piglets.
Journal ArticleDOI

Xinping Chen,Yueqiang Zhang,Yueqiang Zhang,Yiping Tong,Yanfang Xue,Dun-Yi Liu,Wei Zhang,Yan Deng,Qingfeng Meng,Shanchao Yue,Peng Yan,Zhenling Cui,Xiaojun Shi,Shiwei Guo,Yixiang Sun,Youliang Ye,Zhaohui Wang,Liang-Liang Jia,Wenqi Ma,Mingrong He,Xiying Zhang,Chang-Lin Kou,Yan-Ting Li,De-Shui Tan,Ismail Cakmak,Fusuo Zhang,Chunqin Zou +26 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that an integrated strategy, including not only Zn-responsive genotypes, but of a similar importance, Zn application and field N and P management, are required to harvest more grain Zn and meanwhile ensure better yield in wheat-dominant areas.
