Turmeric ( L.) is one of the common medicinal crops of high economical value in Vietnam. A survey in the Central Highlands of Vietnam revealed a turmeric growing area showing serious disease symptoms, including stunting of the plant, yellowing or darkening of the leaf margins and tips, and underdeveloped dry and rotten rhizomes. An inspection for plant pathogens in soil samples from this area revealed a high density and frequency of , with a significant relationship between the density of , rhizome weight, and level of plant damage. This study provides the first report of found in parasitic association with turmeric in Vietnam with the support of molecular data and examines its resulting damage.

Article Synopsis
  • Salisb. is a traditional herb used to treat various diseases, including gastric cancer, but its specific effects on gastric cancer cells require further investigation.
  • This study explored how a standardized extract of Salisb. rhizome induces cell death in gastric cancer AGS cells, primarily through apoptosis and cell cycle disruption.
  • The extract's active compounds, curdione and germacrone, were shown to affect mitochondrial function and cell cycle regulatory proteins, highlighting their potential as anti-cancer agents.

This study showed that a polylactide (PLA)-based composite filled with nanostructured hydroxyapatite (HAp) and a natural extract from the rhizome of L. could provide an alternative to commonly used fossil-based plasticsfor food packaging. The incorporation of HAp into the PLA matrix had a positive effect on improving selected properties of the composites; the beneficial effect could be enhanced by introducing a green modifier in the form of an extract.
