Identification of candidate genes associated with peanut pod length by combined analysis of QTL-seq and RNA-seq
In this study, quantitative trait loci sequencing (QTL-seq) was performed using the F2 population constructed by a short-pod variety Tifrunner (Tif) and a long-pod line Lps, and a 0.77 Mb genomic region on chromosome 07 was identified as the candidate region for PL. Then, the candidate region was narrowed to a 265.93 kb region by traditional QTL approach. RNA-seq analysis showed that there were four differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the candidate region, among which Arahy.PF2L6F (AhCDC48) and Arahy.P4LK2T (AhTAA1) were speculated to be PL-related candidate genes. These results were informative for the elucidation of...

The Mediterranean diet: a historical perspective
Aging Clin Exp Res. 2024 Mar 23;36(1):78. doi: 10.1007/s40520-023-02686-3.ABSTRACTThe Mediterranean diet, which was born in the Mediterranean basin, was initially quite poor and simple, essentially based on the products that grew almost spontaneously along the shores of the Mediterranean, i.e., olives, grapes, and wheat, which were long cultivated in the Mediterranean region. The invasions of the Roman Empire by barbarian populations, between 400 and 800 AD, made the diet enriched with products from wild uncultivated areas, meat from game and pigs, and vegetables. With the arrival of the Arabs in southern Italy in the nint...

Introduction of allergenic food to infants and allergic and autoimmune conditions: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Conclusions
This systematic review and meta-analysis shows that early introduction of allergen-containing food from 4 to 12 months of age, was associated with lower risk of multiple food allergy and eczema. Further research on other allergenic foods, and their long-term impact on food allergy and autoimmune risk is essential for enhancing our understanding on development of these conditions and guiding future clinical recommendations.

Transcriptome sequencing and expression analysis in peanut reveal the potential mechanism response to Ralstonia solanacearum infection
Bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia solanacearum severely affects peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) yields. The breeding of resistant cultivars is an efficient means of controlling plant diseases. Therefore, identifica... (Source: BMC Plant Biology)

From the Pages of AllergyWatch
For this edition of From Pages of AllergyWatch, I've selected articles from recent issues of AllergyWatch. The first article, with comments from Dr. Lee, presents evidence that infants with older siblings have more mature gut microbiota and may be at reduced risk for developing food allergies. The next article, with comments from Dr. Joshi, reports data that children moving to low-poverty neighborhoods can result in reduced asthma symptoms. The third article, with comments from Dr. Knox, found that persistent disparities in adherence of peanut introduction continue despite published guidelines. (Source: Annals of Allergy, ...

Unveiling growth-promoting attributes of peanut root endophyte Micromonospora sp
In this study, 20 endophytic actinobacteria were isolated from different parts of peanut plants growing in cropland with low and high salt in West Bengal, India. The endophytes underwent a rigorous morphological, biochemical, and genetic screening process to evaluate their effectiveness in enhancing plant growth. About 20% of these isolates were identified as potential plant growth-promoting endophytic actinobacteria, which showed high 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity (up to 99-100%) with different species of Micromonospora. Among these isolates, Micromonospora sp. ASENR15 produced the highest levels of indole acetic acid...

Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibition for the treatment of allergic disorders
Ann Allergy Asthma Immunol. 2024 Mar 14:S1081-1206(24)00145-5. doi: 10.1016/j.anai.2024.03.002. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIgE signaling through its high-affinity receptor FcεRI is central to the pathogenesis of numerous allergic disorders. Oral inhibitors of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTKis), which are currently FDA-approved for the treatment of B cell malignancies, broadly inhibit the FcεRI pathway in human mast cells and basophils and therefore may be effective allergen-independent therapies for a variety of allergic diseases. The application of these drugs to the allergy space was previously limited by the low kina...
