Carrabiitol, a Novel Oligosaccharide Polyol Composition, Mitigates the Impact of Flooding, Drought, Salinity, and High Temperature in Tomato.

Abiotic stress results in various physiological and biochemical changes in plants. Osmolytes play a pivotal role in improving the tolerance to abiotic stress in plants. This study evaluated the effectiveness of a commercial formulation, Carrabiitol, an oligosaccharide polyol composition, in alleviating adverse impacts of abiotic stress in tomato ( L.

Transcriptional profiling and genes involved in acquired thermotolerance in Banana: a non-model crop.

Banana is a non- model crop plant, and one of the most important crops in the tropics and sub tropics. Heat stress is the major abiotic stress affecting banana crop production because of its long growth period and is likely to become a threat due to global warming. To understand an acquired thermotolerance phenomenon at the molecular level, the RNA-seq approach was employed by adapting TIR method.

Biophysicochemical characterization of an alkaline protease from Beauveria sp. MTCC 5184 with multiple applications.

This study illustrates the biophysicochemical properties of an alkaline protease, BAP (Beauveria sp. alkaline protease) from Beauveria sp. MTCC 5184.

Enhanced thermostability of a fungal alkaline protease by different additives.

A fungal strain (Conidiobolus brefeldianus MTCC 5184) isolated from plant detritus secreted a high activity alkaline protease. Thermostability studies of the fungal alkaline protease (FAP) revealed that the protease is stable up to 50°C with 40% residual activity after one hour. Effect of various additives such as sugars, sugar alcohols, polyols, and salts, on the thermostability of FAP was evaluated.

μ(2)-m-Xylylenebis(salicylaldiminato)-bis-(η(4)-1,5-cyclo-octa-diene)dirhodium(I) dichloro-methane solvate.

In the title solvate, [Rh(2)(C(22)H(18)N(2)O(2))(C(8)H(12))(2)]·CH(2)Cl(2), each organometallic mol-ecule is composed of two Rh(I) cations, the tetra-dentate dianion α,α'-bis-(salicylaldiminato)-m-xylene and two 1,5-cyclo-octa-diene (COD) ligands. Each Rh(I) atom is coordinated by one O atom [Rh-O = 2.044 (2) and 2.
