Categorized into nine subfamilies, its members are important to most organisms including fungi, where they play varied roles in fundamental cellular processes, plant pathogenesis or fungicide tolerance. However, these proteins are not yet well-understood in the class Dothideomycetes, which includes several phytopathogens that infect a wide range of food crops including wheat, barley and maize and cause major economic losses. Results We analyzed the genomes of 14 Dothideomycetes fungi (Test set) and seven well-known Ascomycetes fungi (Model set-that possessed gene expression/functional analysis data about the ABC genes) and predicted 578 and 338 ABC proteins from each set respectively. These proteins were classified into subfamilies A to I, which revealed the distribution of the subfamily members across the Dothideomycetes and Ascomycetes genomes. Phylogenetic analysis of Dothideomycetes ABC proteins indicated evolutionary relationships among the subfamilies within this class. Further, phylogenetic relationships among the ABC proteins from the Model and the Test fungi within each subfamily were analyzed, which aided in classifying these proteins into subgroups. We compiled and curated functional and gene expression information from the previous literature for 118 ABC genes and mapped them on the phylogenetic trees, which suggested possible roles in pathogenesis and/or fungicide tolerance for the newly identified Dothideomycetes ABC proteins. Conclusions The present analysis is one of the firsts to extensively analyze ABC proteins from Dothideomycetes fungi. Their phylogenetic analysis and annotating the clades with functional information indicated a subset of Dothideomycetes ABC genes that could be considered for experimental validation for their roles in plant pathogenesis and/or fungicide tolerance.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2.806</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sanghi, Smrati</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chirmade, Tejas</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">More, Snehal</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Prabhune, Asmita</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gupta, Vidya</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kadoo, Narendra</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Effect of media components and growth conditions for improved linoleic acid production by beauveria species</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of the  American Oil Chemists Society</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2019</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">AUG</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">96</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">945-954</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;Beauveria&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;species&lt;/span&gt; are well-known insect pathogenic fungi, and &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;Beauveria&lt;/span&gt; bassiana is used as a biopesticide against various pests in agriculture. However, the &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;Beauveria&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;species&lt;/span&gt; has not been reported as producers &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;of&lt;/span&gt; microbial oils. In this study, &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;Beauveria&lt;/span&gt; spp. MTCC 5184 was used to produce microbial oil with high &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;linoleic&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;acid&lt;/span&gt; (LA) content. Ten experiments were performed to evaluate the effects &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;of&lt;/span&gt; several &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;media&lt;/span&gt; parameters, such as carbon and nitrogen sources, pH, various concentrations &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;of&lt;/span&gt; carbon and nitrogen, &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;growth&lt;/span&gt; duration, and oleic &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;acid&lt;/span&gt; (OLA) supplementation &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;for&lt;/span&gt; maximum LA and dry biomass &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;production&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;by&lt;/span&gt; the fungus. Several &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;of&lt;/span&gt; these parameters had a significant impact on the &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;production&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;of&lt;/span&gt; LA, as well as dry biomass. The glucose yeast extract (GYE) medium supplemented with 1.5% (w/v) peptone yielded maximum LA (0.32 +/- 0.01 g L-1) and biomass (5.51 +/- 0.26 g L-1). However, through the addition &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;of&lt;/span&gt; 1.0% (w/v) OLA, the precursor &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;of&lt;/span&gt; LA, LA &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;production&lt;/span&gt; was enhanced 12-fold (1.24 +/- 0.03 g L-1), and the biomass &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;production&lt;/span&gt; increased &lt;span class=&quot;hitHilite&quot;&gt;by&lt;/span&gt; 5-fold (11.05 +/- 0.46 g L-1) in comparison to those in the basal (GYE) medium.

	Atrazine (ATZ) is the second most widely used herbicide. However, its widespread use is hazardous to the environment. We developed ethyl cellulose-based nanoformulated atrazine (nfATZ) to achieve slow and sustained release of ATZ for long-term weed control in crops such as maize. Maize or corn is used in several industrial applications, including the production of ethanol, corn syrup, adhesives, textiles, biodegradable plastics, etc. As broadleaf weeds significantly impact maize yields, we evaluated the effects of nfATZ and conventional ATZ on tomato as a representative of broadleaf weeds. Various concentrations of ATZ and nfATZ (1-10 mg per kg of soil) were evaluated in pre-emergence, post-emergence, and re-emergence studies. Several morphological, physiological, and biochemical parameters of weeds were assessed, and the efficacy of the herbicide formulations was evaluated. nfATZ outperformed conventional ATZ even at lower concentrations with prolonged herbicidal effectiveness beyond 30 days, while the main crop remained unaffected. The weed mortality in nfATZ treatment was &amp;gt; 80 %, while it was 35 % - 45 % in ATZ treatment. The chlorophyll and carotenoid contents decreased by similar to 65 % in nfATZ-treated weeds, impacting their photosynthesis and overall health. ATZ and nfATZ also significantly impacted the activities of antioxidant enzymes, such as ascorbate peroxidase (similar to 57 %), superoxide dismutase (similar to 67 %), and peroxidase (similar to 77 %) in weeds. Thus, we conclude that nfATZ performed significantly better than ATZ in controlling weeds over the long term and reducing its environmental impact. Therefore, we propose nfATZ for highly effective and long-term weed control in large-scale production of industrial crops like maize.&lt;/p&gt;
