Abstract
Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) poses a significant threat to tomato production, leading to severe yield losses. The current control strategies primarily rely on the use of pesticides, which are often nonselective and costly. Therefore, there is an urgent need to identify more environmentally friendly alternatives. Dufulin, a novel compound that has been effective in controlling viral diseases in tobacco and rice, has not yet been tested against TYLCV. This study assessed the efficacy of dufulin in controlling TYLCV over a three-year span from 2021 to 2023 through field trials, by monitoring disease symptoms and viral titers. Additionally, this study assessed the expression levels of genes associated with systemic acquired resistance (SAR), specifically proteinase inhibitor II (PI II) and non-expressor of pathogenesis-related genes 1 (NPR1), using real-time qRT-PCR. The chlorophyll and nitrogen content in the leaves were also measured. Plants treated with dufulin showed reduced symptomatology and lower viral titers compared to the controls. Analysis of gene expression revealed that NPR1 was upregulated in the dufulin-treated plants, whereas PI II expression was consistently downregulated in the TYLCV-infected plants. Interestingly, PI II expression increased in the healthy plants following a seven-day post-treatment with dufulin. Moreover, the treated plants exhibited a higher chlorophyll content than the controls, though no significant differences in the nitrogen levels were observed between the dufulin-treated and water-treated plants. Overall, the application of dufulin significantly bolstered the plant's defense response, effectively reducing TYLCV symptoms and enhancing resistance.

Abstract
Dufulin is a novel immuno-inducer in plants, used to control viral diseases. Salt stress is one of the major abiotic stresses affecting plant growth. OsJAZ5 is a member of the JAZ (JASMONATE ZIM-DOMAIN) protein family, which are key regulators of the JA (jasmonic acid) response. In this study, Dufulin promoted expression of the gene OsJAZ5 in the salt stress response process of rice, and the interaction between Dufulin and OsJAZ5 was confirmed using microscale thermophoresis (MST) and molecular docking studies. We further explored the function of OsJAZ5 protein, using yeast functional complementation studies, physiological and biochemical data of OsJAZ5-overexpressed plants, and transcriptome data to determine its role in enhancing rice salt tolerance, and found that OsJAZ5 indirectly promotes JA-signaling transduction through its interacting proteins OsMYL1 and OsMYL2. In conclusion, OsJAZ5 is a functional target for Dufulin to achieve enhanced rice salt tolerance, and overexpression of OsJAZ5 can improve rice tolerance to salt stress.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 880:163312. [PMID: 37030363 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.163312] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2023] [Revised: 03/31/2023] [Accepted: 04/01/2023] [Indexed: 05/27/2023]
Abstract
Dufulin is a promising chiral antiviral agent, but little is known about its fate in soils. In this study, the fate of dufulin enantiomers in aerobic soils was investigated using radioisotope tracing techniques. The result of the four-compartment model showed no significant differences in dissipation, generation of bound residues (BR) and mineralization between S-dufulin and R-dufulin during incubation. Dufulin dissipated most quickly in cinnamon soils, followed by fluvo-aquic and black soils and the half-lives of dufulin in these soils obtained by the modified model were 4.92-5.23, 32.39-33.32 and 60.80-61.34 d, respectively. After 120 d incubation, the percentage of radioactivity of BR increased to 18.2-38.4 % in the three soils. Dufulin formed most bound residues in the black soil, least in the cinnamon soil, and BRs rapidly formed in the cinnamon soil during the early culture period. In these three soils, the cumulative mineralization of 14CO2 ranged from 25.0 to 26.7 %, 42.1 to 43.4 % and 33.8 to 34.4 %, respectively, which indicated that the environmental fate of dufulin was primarily influenced by soil characteristics. The study of microbial community structure revealed that the phyla Ascomycota, Proteobacteria and genus Mortierella might be related to the degradation of dufulin. These findings provide a reference for assessing the environmental impact and ecological safety of dufulin application.

Abstract
Developing a rapid and accurate strategy of sensing Dufulin is a vital challenge for risk assessment and food crops along with its spreading usage. Herein a dye-encapsulated azoterephthalate metal-organic framework (MOF)-based fluorescent sensing system was designed for Dufulin analysis by acid phosphatase (ACP) enzyme-controlled collapse of MOF framework and subsequent release of the encapsulated dye. The fluorescence intensity of the DMOF/AAP/ACP system was negatively related to the dosage of Dufulin (0-5 μg mL-1) with detection limit of 2.96 ng mL-1. The sensing system able to rapidly and sensitively sense the activity of ACP and Dufulin, and was also applicable for assessment of the real samples including paddy water and soil, polished rice and cucumber. Accordingly, this study illustrated the feasibility and the potential of MOF-derived nanosensors for improving pesticide analysis and opening up the design of the enzyme-based probes for pesticide sensing in environmental assessment and food safety.

Abstract
Dufulin is a highly effective antiviral pesticide used in plants. In this study, a seven-day experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of Dufulin at five different concentrations (1 × 10−4, 1 × 10−3, 1 × 10−2, 0.1, and 1 mg/L) on Tubifex. LC-MS-based metabolome analysis detected a total of 5356 features in positive and 9110 features in negative, of which 41 showed significant changes and were identified as differential metabolites. Four metabolic pathways were selected for further study. Detailed analysis revealed that Dufulin exposure affected the urea cycle of Tubifex, probably via argininosuccinate lyase (ASL) inhibition. It also affected the fatty acid metabolism, leading to changes in the concentration of free fatty acids in Tubifex. Furthermore, the changes in metabolites after exposure to Dufulin at 1 × 10−2 mg/L were different from those at the other concentrations.

Abstract
Metalaxyl and Metalaxyl-M are the fungicides that widely used in many countries. In this study, the environmental behaviors between metalaxyl and metalaxyl-M in Tubifex tubifex (T. tubifex) were quantitative analyzed by using a high performance liquid chromatography with photo-diode-array-detector (HPLC-DAD). Results demonstrated that there was no significant difference (p > 0.05) in the concentration of metalaxyl and metalaxyl-M in T. tubifex during the exposure process. However, the dissipation behaviors of metalaxyl and metalaxyl-M in T. tubifex were different (p < 0.05) during the non-exposure culture process. Meanwhile, the toxic effects were also evaluated by comparing the different influences of these two compounds on related physiological indicators, and functional enzyme activities. The survival rates of T. tubifex were 63.33 ± 15.28% (20 mg L-1), 63.33 ± 5.77% (200 mg L-1) treated with metalaxyl and were 50.00 ± 10.00% (20 mg L-1), 46.67 ± 11.55 (200 mg L-1) treated with metalaxyl-M at the non-exposure culture process. The autotomy rates were increased significantly compared with the initial in all treatments. Besides, the activities of CAT, SOD, and GST in T. tubifex were also inhibited by metalaxyl and metalaxyl-M treatments. Finally, the high-throughput transcriptome sequencing technology was applied to investigate the metabolic pathways of target analytes in T. tubifex, and results proved that the metabolic pathways associated with human diseases (such as viral myocarditis) were up-regulated expression for metalaxyl and metalaxyl-M treatments, and metalaxyl-M up-regulated more significantly. All the results demonstrated that metalaxyl-M had a higher toxicity than metalaxyl on T. tubifex.

Abstract
Dufulin is a new type of chiral antiplant virus agent independently developed in China. The present study was conducted to determine the effects of different concentrations of rac-dufulin and dufulin enantiomers (1, 5, and 10 mg/L) on oxidative stress in Tubifex after exposure for 3, 7, and 14 d. Results showed that rac-dufulin and individual enantiomers had no significant effects on total protein content and glutathione reductase activities. Increased superoxide dismutase demonstrated the generation of superoxide anion radical. The increase in glutathione S-transferase may be due to detoxification mechanisms. The different changes in catalase activities could be due to oxidative stress. The increase in malondialdehyde may be due to the accumulation and toxicity of contaminations. The degradation behavior of dufulin enantiomers was studied through spiked-water and spiked-soil tests. The degradation rate of S-(+)-dufulin was faster than that of R-(-)-dufulin. The present study demonstrated the occurrence of enantioselectivity in the degradation and oxidative stress of dufulin to Tubifex. In spiked soil, the concentrations of dufulin enantiomers in underlying soil were significantly higher than those in overlying water; but after 5 d of degradation, the bioturbation of Tubifex could facilitate part of dufulin diffusing from the underlying soil into the overlying water and altered the partitioning of dufulin. The present study provided a basis for conducting environmental safety risk assessments and rationally using dufulin as a chiral pesticide. Environ Toxicol Chem 2020;39:2136-2146. © 2020 SETAC.
