2,3-Butanediol from the leachates of pine needles induces the resistance of to the leaf pathogen .

Compared with the use of monocultures in the field, cultivation of medicinal herbs in forests is an effective strategy to alleviate disease. Chemical interactions between herbs and trees play an important role in disease suppression in forests. We evaluated the ability of leachates from needles of to induce resistance in leaves, identified the components via gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and then deciphered the mechanism of 2,3-Butanediol as the main component in the leachates responsible for resistance induction via RNA sequencing (RNA-seq).

Phytoremediation potentiality of garlic roots for 2,4-dichlorophenol removal from aqueous solutions.

2,4-Dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) is considered as an important pollutant because of its high toxicity and wide distribution in wastewaters. Innocuous remediation technologies have been studied for the removal of this pollutant. This study investigated the feasibility of using garlic roots as a plant system for the removal of 2,4-DCP.

[Observation on therapeutic effect of "Shandong Xiaoying" needling method for treatment of cerebral infarction].

Objective: To search for an effective method for treatment of cerebral infarction.

Methods: Sixty cases of cerebral infarction were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, 30 cases in each group. All of them were treated with routine needling method, and "Shandong Xiaoying" needling was added to the observation group.
