Crispbread is gaining popularity as a healthy snack or bread substitute. This is a lightweight dry type of flat food that stays fresh for a very long time due to its lack of water and usually contains different types of grain flour, including gluten-containing wheat or rye flour. The incorporation of legume purée into crispbread represents an innovative approach to enhancing the nutriti...

Alternative splicing analysis of lignocellulose-degrading enzyme genes and enzyme variants in Aspergillus niger
Appl Microbiol Biotechnol. 2024 Apr 19;108(1):302. doi: 10.1007/s00253-024-13137-y.ABSTRACTAlternative splicing (AS) greatly expands the protein diversity in eukaryotes. Although AS variants have been frequently reported existing in filamentous fungi, it remains unclear whether lignocellulose-degrading enzyme genes in industrially important fungi undergo AS events. In this work, AS events of lignocellulose-degrading enzymes genes in Aspergillus niger under two carbon sources (glucose and wheat straw) were investigated by RNA-Seq. The results showed that a total of 23 out of the 56 lignocellulose-degrading enzyme genes had ...

Presence of the neurotoxin β-N-methylamino-L-alanine in irrigation water and accumulation in cereal grains with human exposure risk
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2024 Apr 18. doi: 10.1007/s11356-024-33188-y. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe present study demonstrates the presence of the neurotoxin β-N-methylamino-L-alanine and its cyanobacterial producers in irrigation water and grains of some cereal plants from farmlands irrigated with Nile River water in Egypt. BMAA detected by LC-MS/MS in phytoplankton samples was found at higher concentrations of free form (0.84-11.4 μg L-1) than of protein-bound form (0.16-1.6 μg L-1), in association with the dominance of cyanobacteria in irrigation water canals. Dominant cyanobacterial species isolated from the...

Statistical sampling of missing environmental variables improves biophysical genomic prediction in wheat
Theor Appl Genet. 2024 Apr 18;137(5):108. doi: 10.1007/s00122-024-04613-0.ABSTRACTThe integration of genomic prediction with crop growth models enabled the estimation of missing environmental variables which improved the prediction accuracy of grain yield. Since the invention of whole-genome prediction (WGP) more than two decades ago, breeding programmes have established extensive reference populations that are cultivated under diverse environmental conditions. The introduction of the CGM-WGP model, which integrates crop growth models (CGM) with WGP, has expanded the applications of WGP to the prediction of unphenotyped tr...

High Fat Diet –Wheat Gliadin Interaction and its Implication for Obesity and Celiac Disease Onset: In Vivo Studies
Wheat gluten may play a role for development of life-style related diseases in populations on a high fat diet. Mice feed high fat diet show that wheat gliadin consumption affects glucose and lipid metabolic homeostasis, alters the gut microbiota and the immune cell profile in liver. AbstractThe intestinal immune system plays a crucial role in obesity and insulin resistance. An altered intestinal immunity is associated with changes to the gut microbiota, barrier function, and tolerance to luminal antigens. Lipid metabolism and its unbalance can also contribute to acute and chronic inflammation in different conditions. In ce...

Effects of Streptomyces sp. HU2014 inoculation on wheat growth and rhizosphere microbial diversity under hexavalent chromium stress
Ecotoxicol Environ Saf. 2024 Apr 15;276:116313. doi: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2024.116313. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTWheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a major foodstuff for over 40% of the world's population. However, hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] in contaminated soil significantly affects wheat production and its ecological environment. Streptomyces sp. HU2014 was first used to investigate the effects of Cr (VI) stress on wheat growth. We analyzed the Cr(VI) concentration, physicochemical properties of wheat and soil, total Cr content, and microbial community structures during their interactions. HU2014 reduced the toxicity of C...

Appl Environ Microbiol. 2024 Apr 16:e0020524. doi: 10.1128/aem.00205-24. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDye-decolorizing peroxidases are heme peroxidases with a broad range of substrate specificity. Their physiological function is still largely unknown, but a role in the depolymerization of plant cell wall polymers has been widely proposed. Here, a new expression system for bacterial dye-decolorizing peroxidases as well as the activity with previously unexplored plant molecules are reported. The dye-decolorizing peroxidase from Amycolatopsis 75iv2 (DyP2) was heterologously produced in the Gram-positive bacterium Streptomyce...
