One new -Kaurane diterpenoid () was isolated from the ethyl acetate fraction of . Along with ten diterpenoids () were isolated from this plant for the first time, including six 7,20-epoxy diterpenoids, three enmenol-type diterpenoids and one 6,7-seco--kaurene diterpenoid. Their structures were elucidated by 1 D and 2 D NMR, confirmed by HRESIMS and electronic circular dichroism analyses. Furthermore, the cytotoxicities of twelve compounds were investigated in five human cancer cell lines, including A2780, BGC-823, HCT-116, HepG2 and HeLa. And the IC values of these diterpenoids ranged from 2.1 to 88.8 μM in the tested cell lines. Based on the molecular structures of 12 compounds and the bioassay results, it suggests that ,-unsaturated pentanone is the cytotoxic active site of 7,20 epoxy -kaurane diterpenoid, but it does not contribute much to enmenol-type diterpenoid.Supplemental data for this article can be accessed at https://doi.org/10.1080/14786419.2019.1675067.

Red, known as Huangjing in Chinese, is a perennial plant valued in traditional Chinese medicine and is a nutritional food ingredient. With increasing market demand outpacing wild resource availability, cultivation has become essential for sustainable production. However, the cultivation of is challenged by the double dormancy characteristics of seeds, which include embryo and physiological dormancy.

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.

We investigated the effects of exogenous abscisic acid (ABA) on grain filling, starch accumulation, and endogenous hormones in maize (both the heat-tolerant maize variety Zhengdan 958 (ZD958) and the heat-sensitive variety Xianyu 335 (XY335)) under early post-anthesis high temperature stress by simulating high temperature stress for a period of 6 to 12 days post-anthesis in 2022 and 2023. There were three treatments: spraying water at ambient temperature as the control, spraying water at high temperature, and spraying ABA at high temperature. The results showed that early post-anthesis high temperature stress resulted in a significant reduction in grain weight and yield in maize, with XY335 showing a greater reduction than ZD958.
