Induced resistance in plants is a systemic response to certain microorganisms or chemicals that enhances basal defense responses during subsequent plant infection by pathogens. Inoculation of chile pepper with zoospores of non-host Phytophthora nicotianae or the chemical elicitor beta-aminobutyric acid (BABA) significantly inhibited foliar blight caused by Phytophthora capsici. Tissue extract analyses by GC/MS identified conserved change in certain metabolite concentrations following P. nicotianae or BABA treatment. Induced chile pepper plants had reduced concentrations of sucrose and TCA cycle intermediates and increased concentrations of specific hexose-phosphates, hexose-disaccharides and amino acids. Galactose, which increased significantly in induced chile pepper plants, was shown to inhibit growth of P. capsici in a plate assay.

Salinity is one of the predominant abiotic stressors that reduce plant growth, yield, and productivity. Ameliorating salt tolerance through nanotechnology is an efficient and reliable methodology for enhancing agricultural crops yield and quality. Nanoparticles enhance plant tolerance to salinity stress by facilitating reactive oxygen species detoxification and by reducing the ionic and osmotic stress effects on plants.

Paris yunnanensis, also named as Rhizoma Paridis in the Chinese Pharmacopeia, is a perennial Chinese medicinal herb commonly grown in Southwest China. However, several viruses have been found infecting this plant in recent years. Using high-throughput sequencing (HTS) and Sanger sequencing, this study obtained the complete genome sequences of three capillovirus isolates and one potyvirus isolate.

To explore CRT gene family members and their responses to low-temperature stress, bioinformatics methods were used to identify the CRT gene family in pepper. In this study, a total of 4 CRT gene family members were identified by screening. The genes were found to be located on different chromosomes, and phylogenetic tree and collinearity analyses were performed.

Background: Perianal fistula is one of the complications of deepened anal fissure. The present case-control study aimed to assess the risk factors of fissure-associated fistulas due to the limited available evidence.
Methods: Patients with fissure-associated fistulas were considered as case, and patients with anal fissure who were undergoing medical treatment without any previous anorectal surgeries were considered as control group.

Plants frequently encounter phosphate (Pi) starvation due to its scarce availability in soil, necessitating an adaptive phosphate starvation response (PSR). This study explores this adaptation in pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) under low-Pi stress, focusing on the PHOSPHATE STARVATION RESPONSE (PHR) gene family.
