Clivia is a genus of great horticultural importance and has been widely cultivated as ornamental plants in all over the world. In order to assess the phylogenetic relationships and genetic diversity of the wild Clivia species and cultivars, we isolated AC-enriched repeats using FIASCO from a single clone each of C. miniata Regel. and Clivia nobilis Lindl. Of the fourteen repeats, 10 were polymorphic and 4 were monomorphic. The polymorphic marker loci were characterized using 61 Clivia accessions. The number of alleles ranged from two to six, observed heterozygosity ranged from 0.04 to 1.00 and expected heterozygosity ranged from 0.04 to 0.83. These microsatellite marker loci provide tools for future studies of Clivia species and cultivars.

Article Synopsis
- * The researchers identified a Scytalidium-like fungus and confirmed it as Neoscytalidium dimidiatum through genetic analysis.
- * This report is significant because it's the first documentation of N. dimidiatum causing leaf blight in Clivia miniata and Clivia nobilis globally, marking these plants as new hosts for the fungus.
Evaluation of the pathogenicity of endophytic fungi isolated from spines of rattan (Calamus castaneus) against other plant hosts.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the pathogenic capabilities of endophytic fungi found in the spines of the rattan palm (Calamus castaneus) in Peninsula Malaysia.
- Ten fungal species were tested on various crop plants, revealing that these endophytes can infect leaves and fruits with varying levels of virulence.
- The findings highlight the potential of these fungi to act as latent pathogens, which could pose risks to agricultural crops under certain conditions.

A biosensor has been developed based on disposable screen-printed electrode for recording the electrochemical fingerprint of plant leaf tissue. A thin layer of polydopamine functionalized graphene sheets was coated on the plant tissue modified electrode for signal enhancement. The voltammetric data recorded under different buffer solutions can be derived as patterns for species identification.

Background: Quorum sensing is the key regulator of virulence factors of such as biofilm formation, motility, productions of proteases, hemolysin, pyocyanin, and toxins. The aim of this study was to explore the effect of the extracts from some medicinal plants on quorum sensing and related virulence factors of .
Material And Methods: Quorum sensing inhibitory (OSI) effect of the alcohol extracts of 20 medicinal plants was evaluated by reporter using agar cup diffusion method.

Amaryllidaceae is a well-known family for its high alkaloidal content. These alkaloids comprise a unique group of bases that have been found to occur in this family. The Amaryllidaceae alkaloids represent a large and still expanding group of isoquinoline alkaloids, the majority of which are not known to occur in any other family of plants.
