PHC9 COST-EFFECTIVENESS OF RIVAROXABANVERSUS ENOXAPARIN FORTHROMBOPROPHYLAXIS AFTER TOTAL HIP REPLACEMENT IN THE UK

Vitis vinifera cell cultures respond to pathogens and elicitors by synthesizing and extracellularly accumulating stilbenoid phytoalexins. Large amounts of trans-resveratrol (t-R) are produced when a cell culture is elicited with methylated cyclodextrins (MBCD), either alone or combined with methyl jasmonate (MeJA). t-R transport to the extracellular medium, which represents the apoplastic space, would place this antifungal defense right in the battlefield to efficiently fight against pathogen attack. Yet despite their physiological relevance, these transport pathways are mostly unknown. A broad hypothesis-free DIGE-based proteomic experiment of a temporal series of elicited grapevine cell cultures was performed to explore the expression profiles of t-R biosynthetic proteins and other co-expressing proteins potentially involved in such a cell response. A correlation between two tau class glutathione-S-transferases (GSTs) with several stilbene synthase and phenylalanine ammonia-lyase isoforms, and with the t-R metabolite itself, was found and further assessed by a qRT-PCR gene expression analysis. The best candidate, GSTU-2, was cloned from the cDNA of the MBCD + MeJA-elicited grapevine cells and used for Agrobacterium-mediated grapevine cell transformation. The non-elicited lines that overexpressed GSTU-2 displayed an extracellular t-R accumulating phenotype, but stabilization of t-R required the addition to culture medium of adsorbent compounds, e.g., PVP or β-cyclodextrin. The wild-type cell cultures accumulated no t-R, not even in the presence of adsorbents. The transient expression of the GSTU-2-GFP fusion proteins in grapevine cells showed localisation in the plasma membrane, and the immunoprecipitation of HA-tagged GSTU-2 revealed its interaction with HIR, a plasma membrane-bound protein. These findings are consistent with a functional role in transport. This is the first report providing several pieces of experimental evidence for the involvement of a specific tau class GST in t-R transport to the extracellular medium

Molecular linkage maps of Vitis vinifera L. and Vitis riparia Mchx

Two linkage maps for grape (Vitis spp.) have been developed based on 81 F-1 plants derived from an interspecific cross between the wine cultivar Moscato bianco (Vitis vinifera L.) and a Vitis riparia Mchx. accession, a donor of pathogen resistance traits. The double pseudotest-cross mapping strategy was applied using three types of molecular markers. The efficiency of SSRs to anchor homologous linkage groups from different Vitis maps and the usefulness of AFLPs in saturating molecular linkage maps were evaluated. Moreover, the SSCP technique was developed based on sequence information in public databases concerning genes involved in flavonoid and stilbene biosynthesis. For the maternal genetic map a total of 338 markers were assembled in 20 linkage groups covering 1,639 cM, whereas 429 loci defined the 19 linkage groups of the paternal map which covers 1,518 cM. The identification of 14 linkage groups common to both maps was possible based on 21 SSR and 19 AFLP loci. The position of SSR loci in the maps presented here was consistent with other published mapping experiments in Vitis

Effect of ochratoxin A-producing Aspergilli on stilbenic phytoalexin synthesis in grapes

Berries of Vitis vinifera L. cv. Barbera were infected, at veraison and during ripening, by a conidial suspension of A. japonicus, A. ochraceus, A. fumigatus and two isolates of A. carbonarius to control ochratoxin A production and stilbene induced synthesis. The experimental design provided also for intact and punctured berries and incubation temperature of 25 degrees C and 30 degrees C. All the tested fungi, except A. fumigatus, significantly increased trans-resveratrol synthesis over the control, while trans-piceid was not affected; only A. ochraceus significantly elicited the berries to synthesize piceatannol. The two isolates of A. carbonarius produced higher amounts of ochratoxin A than did the other fungi. A positive correlation between ochratoxin A and trans-resveratrol synthesis occurred. trans-Resveratrol and piceatannol showed fungicidal activity against A. carbonarius, being able to completely inhibit fungal growth at a concentration of 300 micro g/g and 20 micro g/g, respectively
