AI Article Synopsis

  • Two endophytic strains, LUP30 and LUP47B, were analyzed after being isolated from lucerne plant roots in South Australia.
  • These strains enhance growth by improving nodulation and nitrogen fixation in lucerne plants.
  • The complete genome sequences of these strains were studied to understand their beneficial effects on plant growth.

Article Abstract

The complete genome sequences of two endophytic sp. strains, LUP30 and LUP47B, were analyzed. These strains were isolated from surface-sterilized roots of lucerne plants from South Australia and were found to promote the growth of the rhizobial partner and significantly increased nodulation and nitrogen fixation in lucerne plants.

Light is a vital regulator of photosynthesis, energy production, plant growth, and morphogenesis. Although these key physiological processes are well understood, the effects of light quality on the pigment content, oxidative stress, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, antioxidant defense systems, and biomass yield of plants remain largely unexplored. In this study, we applied different light-emitting diode (LED) treatments, including white light, red light, blue light, and a red+blue (1:1) light combination, to evaluate the traits mentioned above in alfalfa ( L.

Biowaste produced in urban parks is composed of large masses of organic matter that is only occasionally used economically. In this work, extracts of six plants widely distributed in urban parks in Central Europe (, , , , , and ), prepared using 10 % and 50 % ethanol, were screened for their antidiabetic and related properties. HPLC and UV-Vis analysis revealed the presence of caffeic acid, quercetin, luteolin, and apigenin derivatives.
