Identification of Key Gene Network Modules and Hub Genes Associated with Wheat Response to Biotic Stress Using Combined Microarray Meta-analysis and WGCN Analysis.

Wheat (Triticum aestivum) is one of the major crops worldwide and a primary source of calories for human food. Biotic stresses such as fungi, bacteria, and diseases limit wheat production. Although plant breeding and genetic engineering for biotic stress resistance have been suggested as promising solutions to handle losses caused by biotic stress factors, a comprehensive understanding of molecular mechanisms and identifying key genes is a critical step to obtaining success.

Biologically synthesized CuO nanoparticles induce physiological, metabolic, and molecular changes in the hazel cell cultures.

The utilization of plant extracts in nanoparticle (NP) synthesis has been suggested as a nature-friendly method and an efficient alternative to the conventional approaches such as physical and chemical methods. Taxol is a valuable medicinal compound, and hazelnut has been suggested as one of the sustainable resources for producing this metabolite. In the present research, copper oxide (CuO) nanoparticles (NPs) were biologically synthesized by utilizing hazelnut leaf extracts.

Sterilization protocols and the effect of plant growth regulators on callus induction and secondary metabolites production in in vitro cultures Melia azedarach L.

Melia azedarach L. is a valuable source of antioxidants and secondary metabolites. This study is a first extensive report about the effect of different serialization protocols and plant growth regulators (PGRs) on explant disinfection efficiency, callus induction and secondary metabolites production and accumulation in callus cultures of M.
