Biocontrol Activity of CH05 and CH13 Isolated from L. Seeds against Fungal Strains.

In this study, seed-surface-associated bacteria from fresh fruits of spp. were analyzed to explore potential isolates for biocontrol of phytopathogenic fungal strains. A total of 76 bacterial isolates were obtained from three different species of chili pepper ( L.

Role of Volatile Organic Compounds Produced by Cp1 during Competitive Colonization Interaction against SM2.

The competitive colonization of bacteria on similar ecological niches has a significant impact during their establishment. The synthesis speeds of different chemical classes of molecules during early competitive colonization can reduce the number of competitors through metabolic effects. In this work, we demonstrate for the first time that Cp1 previously isolated from the seeds of R.

A Study of Resistome in Mexican Chili Powder as a Public Health Risk Factor.

Chili powder is an important condiment around the world. However, according to various reports, the presence of pathogenic microorganisms could present a public health risk factor during its consumption. Therefore, microbiological quality assessment is required to understand key microbial functional traits, such as antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs).

Evaluation of the Insecticidal Potential of Acetonic and Methanolic Extracts against and Their Ecotoxicological Effect on .

For the management of , botanical extracts have been used to reduce the environmental impacts of synthetic chemical pesticides. In the present investigation, the insecticidal activity of the acetonic and methanolic extracts of (Asteraceae) and of the main compound 7-hydroxy-3,4-dihydrocadalene on this pest as well as its ecotoxicological effect on were evaluated. A greater insecticidal response was obtained from the acetonic extracts than from the methanolic extracts, with LC values of 730.

Volatile Organic Compounds Produced by Cp1 Isolated from the Seeds of R & P Possess Antifungal Activity.

The Cp1 strain was isolated from seeds of R. & P. cultivated in Michoacan, Mexico.

Ch1 Isolated from Mexican Chili Powder Reveals Growth Inhibition of Phytopathogenic Fungi.

strain Ch1 was isolated from Mexican chili powder, and the genome was sequenced. The genome was 4,765,544 bp in length, with an average G + C content of 56.22%, and a plasmid (pCh1) of 128,063 bp with an average G + C content of 52.

Comparative Colorimetric Sensor Based on Bi-Phase γ-/α-FeO and γ-/α-FeO/ZnO Nanoparticles for Lactate Detection.

This work reports on FeO and ZnO materials for lactate quantification. In the synthesis, the bi-phase γ-/α-FeO and γ-/α-FeO/ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) were obtained for their application in a lactate colorimetric sensor. The crystalline phases of the NPs were analyzed by XRD and XPS techniques.

Insights into the Bacterial Diversity and Detection of Opportunistic Pathogens in Mexican Chili Powder.

Chili powder is the most frequently consumed spice in Mexican diets. Thus, the dissemination of microorganisms associated with chili powder derived from L. is significant during microbial quality analysis, with special attention on detection of potential pathogens.

Effect of Salicylic Acid in the Yield of Ricinine in under Greenhouse Condition.

Castor bean () seeds contain ricinine, an alkaloid with insecticidal and insectistatic activities. Elicitation with salicylic acid (SA) has proven to stress and might modify the ricinine concentration. The aim of this study was to evaluate the concentration of ricinine in the bagasse of seeds from elicited with exogenous SA under greenhouse conditions.
