Steneotarsonemus spinki the temperate climate of the United States, the area of southwest Louisiana has a sub-tropical climate with both high temperature and high humidity. Panicle rice mites thrive under both of these conditions and may cause substantial economic losses when found in association with "Burkholderia glumae" (bacterial panicle blight) and "Sarocladium oryzae" (sheath rot) pathogens. These pathogens are both present in southwest Louisiana. Panicle rice mites are pests of commercial rice ("Oryza sativa"), and completes its development on the invasive plant "Oryza latifolia". Feeding takes place behind the leaf sheath. The feeding lesion can be detected by cinnamon to chocolate-brown discoloration
Arogenate dehydratase hybrida", "Sorghum bicolor"", "and "Oryza sativa"", "which are all considered higher-order plants. "Erwinia herbicola"" and Pseudomonas aeruginosa"" "are known to" "have homologues for cyclohexadienyl dehydratase. Of the plants with ADT homologues, both "Arabidopsis thaliana "and "Petunia hybrida "are known to have paralogues for the gene (six and three, respectively). Arogenate dehydratase Arogenate dehydratase (ADT) (EC 4.2.1.91) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction Hence, this enzyme has one substrate, L-arogenate, but 3 products:L-phenylalanine, HO, and CO. Certain forms of the protein have the potential to catalyze a second reaction, L-prephenate → L-phenylpyruvate + HO + CO This enzyme participates
