Chitinase treatment of a commercial laminarioligosaccharide preparation from a mushroom resulted in a loss of previously reported elicitor activity in rice cells, indicating that the activity was attributable not to the laminarioligosaccharide but rather to the contaminating chitin fragments. This suggests that the elicitor activity of laminarioligosacchraides from such sources containing chitinaceous substances should be carefully interpreted.

LED light improves shoot multiplication, steviol glycosides and phenolic compounds biosynthesis in Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni in vitro culture.
Sci Rep

Light-emitting diode (LED) lamps are efficient elicitors of secondary metabolites. To investigate the influence of LED light on steviol glycosides (SGs) and phenolic compounds biosynthesis, stevia shoots were cultured under the following LED lights: white-WL, blue-B, red-R, 70% red and 30% blue-RB, 50% UV, 35% red and 15% blue-RBUV, 50% green, 35% red and 15% blue-RBG, 50% yellow, 35% red and 15% blue-RBY, 50% far-red, 35% red and 15% blue-RBFR and white fluorescent light (WFl, control). RBG light stimulated shoots' biomass production.

Nanotechnology offers a transformative approach to augment plant growth and crop productivity under abiotic and biotic stress conditions. Nanomaterials interact with key phytohormones, triggering the synthesis of stress-associated metabolites, activating antioxidant defense mechanisms, and modulating gene expression networks that regulate diverse physiological, biochemical, and molecular processes within plant systems. This review critically examines the impact of nanoparticles on both conventional and genetically modified crops, focusing on their role in nutrient delivery systems and the modulation of plant cellular machinery.

Fruit is an essential part of the human diet, and postharvest fungal diseases are the major cause of fruit postharvest losses worldwide. Pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) are important elicitors from microbes, and the recognition between microbial PAMPs and plant receptors leads to PAMP-triggered immunity. Here, we identified a PAMP, PdEIX, that is an important protein elicitor with plant immunity-inducing activity, from the citrus green mold pathogen .

School of Psychological Science, University of Bristol, Bristol, UK.
Humans feel visceral disgust when faced with potential contaminants like bodily effluvia. The emotion serves to reject potentially contaminated food and is paired with proto-nausea: alterations in gastric rhythm in response to disgust. Here, we offer a narrative synthesis of the existing literature on the effects of disgust on the stomach as measured through electrogastrography, a non-invasive technique that measures stomach activity with electrodes placed on the abdominal skin surface.

β-glucosidases (BGLUs) are abundant enzymes in plants that play pivotal roles in cell wall modification, hormone signal transduction, secondary metabolism, defense against herbivores, and volatile compound release. , a perennial herb revered for its therapeutic properties, lacks a comprehensive analysis of its gene family despite the critical role these genes play in plant secondary metabolism. This study aims to perform a genome-wide analysis of the gene family in () to elucidate their functions and regulatory mechanisms in secondary metabolite biosynthesis.
