Abstract
Rhizoctonia solani (R. solani) is an important pathogenic fungus that causes symptoms of sheath blight, and the polysaccharide-rich cell wall plays a major role in plant-pathogen interactions. However, the composition and structure of its cell wall polysaccharides are insufficiently understood, and its specific function in plant-pathogen interactions is unknown, which makes effective control of sheath blight difficult at present. Herein, five cell wall polysaccharides (WF-1, WF-2, CAF-1, HAF-1 and HAF 2-1) were sequentially extracted by boiling water, cold and hot alkali from R. solani AG1 IA. They were heteropolysaccharides containing mainly glucose, mannose and galactose and less fucose, with molecular weights above 1100 kDa. These five polysaccharides mainly composed of →4)-Glcp-(1→, →6)-Glcp-(1→, →4,6)-Glcp-(1→, →3,4)-Glcp-(1→, and Manp-(1→. Several polysaccharides, except WF-1, showed different induced resistance degrees on rice plant, with HAF 2-1 having the most significant effect. Further analysis using NMR confirmed that the backbone of HAF 2-1 mainly consisted of →4)-α-D-Glcp-(1→ and →6)-α-D-Glcp-(1→ with branches of →4,6)-D-Glcp-(1→. HAF 2-1 enhance the resistance of rice against R. solani through salicylic acid (SA)-mediated immune signaling pathway. This work improves our knowledge of the cell wall polysaccharides in plant pathogens and facilitates the study of pathogenic mechanisms and effective disease control.

Abstract
Polysaccharides are abundantly present in fungi and are gaining recognition for their exceptional bioactivities. Hence, the present study aimed to extract intracellular polysaccharides (IPS-1 and IPS-2) from the endophytic Penicillium radiatolobatum and compare their physicochemical and bioactive attributes. The monosaccharide composition analysis revealed the existence of galactose, glucose, and mannose in both the IPS, while a trace amount of xylose was found in IPS-1. Further, FT-IR, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR analysis suggested that the IPS-2 was mainly composed of the β-(1→4)-D-Galactose and β-(1→4)-D-Glucose as the main chain, with the β-(1→6)-D-mannose as branched chains. Compared to IPS-1, the IPS-2 showed higher antioxidant activities with an IC50 value of 108 ± 2.5 μg/mL, 272 ± 4.0 μg/mL, and 760 ± 5.0 μg/mL for ABTS+ scavenging, DPPH radical scavenging, and ferric reducing power, respectively. In addition, the IPS-2 inhibited the viability of prostate cancer (PC-3) cells (IC50; 435 ± 3.0 μg/mL) via apoptosis associated with mitochondrial membrane potential collapse and altered morphological features, which was revealed by cellular staining and flow cytometric analysis. Moreover, no apparent cytotoxic effects were seen in IPS-2-treated (1000 μg/mL) non-cancerous cells (HEK-293 and NIH3T3). Overall, the findings of this study suggest that P. radiatolobatum could be a potent source of polysaccharides with promising antioxidant and anticancer activity.

Abstract
In recent years, with the development of the nanomaterials discipline, many new pesticide drug-carrying systems-such as pesticide nano-metal particles, nano-metal oxides, and other drug-carrying materials-had been developed and applied to pesticide formulations. Although these new drug-loading systems are relatively friendly to the environment, the direct exposure of many metal nanoparticles to the environment will inevitably lead to potential effects. In response to these problems, organic nanomaterials have been rapidly developed due to their high-quality biodegradation and biocompatibility. Most of these organic nanomaterials were mainly polysaccharide materials, such as chitosan, carboxymethyl chitosan, sodium alginate, β-cyclodextrin, cellulose, starch, guar gum, etc. Some of these materials could be used to carry inorganic materials to develop a temperature- or pH-sensitive pesticide drug delivery system. Herein, the pesticide drug-carrying system developed based on polysaccharide materials, such as chitosan, was referred to as the pesticide polymer drug-carrying system based on polysaccharide materials. This kind of drug-loading system could be used to protect the pesticide molecules from harsh environments, such as pH, light, temperature, etc., and was used to develop the function of a sustained release, targeted release of pesticides in the intestine of insects, and achieve the goal of precise application, reduction, and efficiency of pesticides. In this review, the recent progress in the field of polysaccharide-based polymer drug delivery systems for pesticides has been discussed, and suggestions for future development were proposed based on the current situation.

Abstract
Sheath blight, caused by Rhizoctonia solani (R. solani), is one of the most serious diseases of rice. Extracellular polysaccharides (EPS) are complex polysaccharides secreted by microbes that have a pivotal role in the plant-microbe interaction. At present, many studies have been carried out on R. solani, but it is not very clear whether the EPS is secreted by R. solani exists. Therefore, we isolated and extracted the EPS from R. solani, two kinds of EPS (EW-I and ES-I) were obtained by DEAE-cellulose 52 and Sephacryl S-300HR column further purification, and their structures were characterized by FT-IR, UV, GC, and NMR analysis. The results showed that EW-I and ES-I had similar monosaccharide composition but different molar ratio, they were composed of fucose, arabinose, galactose, glucose, and mannose with a ratio of 7.49: 27.72: 2.98: 6.66: 55.15 and 3.81: 12.98: 6.15: 10.83: 66.23, and their backbone may be composed of →2)-α-Manp-(1→ residues, beside ES-I was highly branched compared to EW-I. The exogenous application of EW-I and ES-I had no effect on the growth of R. solani AG1 IA itself, but their pretreatment of rice induced plant defense through activation of the salicylic acid pathway, resulting in enhanced resistance to sheath blight.

Abstract
It is certainly difficult to estimate productivity losses due to the action of phytopathogenic nematodes but it might be about 12 % of world agricultural production. Although there are numerous tools to reduce the effect of these nematodes, there is growing concern about their environmental impact. Lysobacter enzymogenes B25 is an effective biological control agent against plant-parasitic nematodes, showing control over root-knot nematodes (RKN) such as Meloidogyne incognita and Meloidogyne javanica. In this paper, the efficacy of B25 to control RKN infestation in tomato plants (Solanum lycopersicum cv. Durinta) is described. The bacterium was applied 4 times at an average of concentration around 108 CFU/mL showing an efficacy of 50-95 % depending on the population and the pressure of the pathogen. Furthermore, the control activity of B25 was comparable to that of the reference chemical used. L. enzymogenes B25 is hereby characterized, and its mode of action studied, focusing on different mechanisms that include motility, the production of lytic enzymes and secondary metabolites and the induction of plant defenses. The presence of M. incognita increased the twitching motility of B25. In addition, cell-free supernatants obtained after growing B25, in both poor and rich media, showed efficacy in inhibiting RKN egg hatching in vitro. This nematicidal activity was sensitive to high temperatures, suggesting that it is mainly due to extracellular lytic enzymes. The secondary metabolites heat-stable antifungal factor and alteramide A/B were identified in the culture filtrate and their contribution to the nematicidal activity of B25 is discussed. This study points out L. enzymogenes B25 as a promising biocontrol microorganism against nematode infestation of plants and a good candidate to develop a sustainable nematicidal product.

Abstract
The papaya industry is mainly impacted by viral diseases, especially papaya ringspot disease (PRSD) caused by papaya ringspot virus (PRSV). So far, research on the interaction between Chitosan, Lentinan and Ningnanmycin on PRSD has not been reported. This research studied the controlled and interactive effect of three biological agents, namely, Chitosan (C), Lentinan (L) and Ningnanmycin (N), on PRSV in papaya, individually and collectively. The changes in disease index, controlled effect, Peroxidase (POD), Polyphenol oxidase (PPO), Superoxide dismutase (SOD), growth and development of plants were observed at the seedling stage, in pots, and at the fruiting stage, in the field. The appearance and nutrient contents of fruits were measured during the fruit stage. The disease index of PRSV, at seedling and fruiting stages, was significantly lower for chitosan, lentinan and ningnanmycin and their interactive effect, compared to a control check treatment. The activity of the defense enzymes could be improved by the three kinds of biological agents and their interactive effect, especially lentinan and ningnanmycin. The chlorophyll content, plant height, stem diameter and fruit quality rose significantly under chitosan, lentinan and ningnanmycin treatments. The interaction of LN could inhibit PRSV disease at the seedling and fruiting stages of papaya, and promote the growth of plants and the quality of fruit at the fruit stage. Hence, this study provides the theoretical foundation for the biological control of papaya ringspot disease.

Abstract
Polysaccharides from fungi have many bioactivities. Previous studies showed that galactomannans from Penicillium oxalicum antagonize galectin-8-mediated activity. Here, two intracellular and two extracellular galactomannans were purified and their structures were comparatively characterized by NMR, partial acid hydrolysis and methylation. All four of them were identified to be galactomannans with similar mannan backbones having 1,2-/1,6-linkages (~3:1) and various amounts of galactofuranan side chains. The interaction of those polysaccharides with galectin-8 was assessed by hemagglutination and biolayer interferometry. These results show that side chains are important for the interaction, and the more the side chains, the stronger the interaction. But the side chains alone did not show act on galectin-8, which indicated that the cooperation between backbone and side chains is another necessary factor for this interaction. Our findings provide important information about structure-activity relationships and the galactofuranose-containing galactomannans might be as potential therapeutic of galectin-8 related diseases.

Abstract
Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) is a deadly pathogen that still plagues suckling piglets. However, there is still no anti-PEDV drug available in clinics. To develop potential anti-PEDV drugs, the antiviral activity of Alpiniae oxyphyllae fructus polysaccharide 3 (AOFP3) against PEDV infection in IPEC-J2 cells were assessed in our present study. The structural characterization of AOFP3 was studied by using HPAEC, GC-MS, FT-IR and NMR techniques. At the same time, the anti-PEDV activity of AOFP3 was investigated by performing RT-qPCR, Western blot and immunofluorescence assays. The results showed that AOFP3 (44.4 kDa) was composed of glucose and galacturonic acid at a molar ratio of 77.54:22.46 and consisted of →4)-α-D-Glcp-(1→, →4,6)-α-D-Glcp-(1→, T-α-D-Glcp-(1→ and →4)-α-D-GalAp-(1→. AOFP3 significantly decreased PEDV titer in IPEC-J2 cells and prevented cellular damage of IPEC-J2 cells caused by PEDV infection. Furthermore, AOFP3 showed an antioxidative activity in inhibiting PEDV reproduction. Therefore, AOFP3 was expected to be a material of anti-PEDV drug.

Abstract
Introduction Several months ago, Chinese authorities identified an atypical pneumonia in Wuhan city, province of Hubei (China) caused by a novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV or SARS-CoV-2). The WHO announced this new disease was to be known as "COVID-19".

Abstract
The polypeptide extract of the dry mycelium of Penicillium chrysogenum (PDMP) can protect tobacco plants from tobacco mosaic virus (TMV), although the mechanism underlying PDMP-mediated TMV resistance remains unknown. In our study, we analysed a potential mechanism via RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and found that the abscisic acid (ABA) biosynthetic pathway and β-1,3-glucanase, a callose-degrading enzyme, might play an important role in PDMP-induced priming of resistance to TMV. To test our hypothesis, we successfully generated a Nicotiana benthamiana ABA biosynthesis mutant and evaluated the role of the ABA pathway in PDMP-induced callose deposition during resistance to TMV infection. Our results suggested that PDMP can induce callose priming to defend against TMV movement. PDMP inhibited TMV movement by increasing callose deposition around plasmodesmata, but this phenomenon did not occur in the ABA biosynthesis mutant; moreover, these effects of PDMP on callose deposition could be rescued by treatment with exogenous ABA. Our results suggested that callose deposition around plasmodesmata in wild-type plants is mainly responsible for the restriction of TMV movement during the PDMP-induced defensive response to TMV infection, and that ABA biosynthesis apparently plays a crucial role in PDMP-induced callose priming for enhancing defence against TMV.

Abstract
Here, we compare the content and composition of polysaccharides derived from the mycelium (40.4 kDa intracellular polysaccharide, IPS) and culture (27.2 kDa extracellular polysaccharide, EPS) of Penicillium oxalicum. Their chemical structures investigated by IR, NMR, enzymolysis and methylation analysis indicate that both IPS and EPS are galactomannans composed of α-1,2- mannopyranose (Manp) and α-1,6-Manp in a backbone ratio of ~3:1, respectively, both decorated with β-l,5-galactofuranose (Galf) side chains. A few β-l,6-Galf residues were also detected in the IPS fraction. EPS and IPS have different molecular weights (Mw) and degrees of branching. IPS obtained by alkaline extraction of P. oxalicum have been reported to be galactofuranans, a composition different from our IPS. Up to now, there have been no reports on the fine structure of EPS. Our results of galectin-mediated hemagglutination demonstrate that IPS exhibits greater inhibitory effects on five galectins compared with EPS. In addition, we find that Galf, a five-membered ring form of galactose, can also inhibit galectins. IPS may provide a new source of galectin inhibitors. These results increase our understanding of structure-activity relationships of polysaccharides as galectin inhibitors.

Abstract
The envelope glycoprotein I (gI) of herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) is a critical mediator of virus-induced cell-to-cell spread and cell-cell fusion. Here, we report a previously unrecognized property of this molecule. In transfected cells, the HSV-1 gI was discovered to induce rod-shaped structures that were uniform in width but variable in length. Moreover, the gI within these structures was conformationally different from the typical form of gI, as a previously used monoclonal antibody mAb3104 and a newly made peptide antibody to the gI extracellular domain (ECD) (amino acids [aa] 110 to 202) both failed to stain the long rod-shaped structures, suggesting the formation of a higher-order form. Consistent with this observation, we found that gI could self-interact and that the rod-shaped structures failed to recognize glycoprotein E, the well-known binding partner of gI. Further analyses by deletion mutagenesis and construction of chimeric mutants between gI and gD revealed that the gI ECD is the critical determinant, whereas the transmembrane domain served merely as an anchor. The critical amino acids were subsequently mapped to proline residues 184 and 188 within a conserved PXXXP motif. Reverse genetics analyses showed that the ability to induce a rod-shaped structure was not required for viral replication and spread in cell culture but rather correlated positively with the capability of the virus to induce cell fusion in the UL24syn background. Together, this work discovered a novel feature of HSV-1 gI that may have important implications in understanding gI function in viral spread and pathogenesis.IMPORTANCE The HSV-1 gI is required for viral cell-to-cell spread within the host, but the molecular mechanisms of how gI exactly works have remained poorly understood. Here, we report a novel property of this molecule, namely, induction of rod-shaped structures, which appeared to represent a higher-order form of gI. We further mapped the critical residues and showed that the ability of gI to induce rod-shaped structures correlated well with the capability of HSV-1 to induce cell fusion in the UL24syn background, suggesting that the two events may have an intrinsic link. Our results shed light on the biological properties of HSV-1 gI and may have important implications in understanding viral pathogenesis.
