Abstract Globally, despite the intense agricultural production, output is expected to be limited by emerging infectious plant diseases and adverse impacts of climate change. The annual increase in sustain human population at expense environment has exacerbated current conditions threatened food security. demand for sustainable practice further augmented with exclusion synthetic fertilizers pesticides. Therefore, application microbiome engineering (natural) biostimulants been forefront as an...
Abiotic stresses such as drought, heat, salinity, and heavy metal contamination severely affect global agricultural productivity.Between 2005 2015, droughts caused losses of approximately USD 29 billion in developing countries, from 2008 to 2018, accounted for over 34% crop livestock yield losses, totaling about 37 billion.To support the growing human population, output must increase substantially, necessitating a 60%-100% rise productivity meet escalating demand.To address environmental...
Variant CJD (vCJD) is an incurable, infectious human disease, likely arising from the consumption of BSE-contaminated meat products. Whilst epidemic appears to be waning, there much concern that vCJD infection may perpetuated in humans by transfusion contaminated blood Since 2004, several cases transfusion-associated transmission have been reported and linked collected pre-clinically affected donors. Using animal model which disease manifested resembles with vCJD, we examined components used...
Flooding caused or exacerbated by climate change has threatened plant growth and food production worldwide. The lack of knowledge on how crops respond adapt to flooding stress imposes a major barrier enhancing their productivity. Hence, understanding the flooding-responsive mechanisms is indispensable for developing new flooding-tolerant varieties. Here, we examined banana (Musa acuminata cv. Berangan) responses soil waterlogging 1, 3, 5, 7, 14, 24 days. After stress, root samples were...
Drought is one of the significant threats to agricultural sector. However, there limited knowledge on plant response drought stress and post-drought recovery. Pandanus amaryllifolius, a moderate drought-tolerant plant, well-known for its ability survive in low-level soil moisture conditions. Understanding molecular regulation signaling this could help guide rational design crop plants counter environmental challenge. This study aimed determine morpho-physiological, biochemical, protein...
Drought stress severely threatens plant growth, yield and survivability. Wood vinegar, formed by the condensation of smoke produced during biochar production, has been shown to promote growth enhance tolerance. They have now recognized as a sustainable alternative are frequently used exogenously support plants coping with environmental stress. This study aimed evaluate efficacy oil palm wood vinegar (OPWV) in mitigating adverse effects drought on Pandanus amaryllifolius. The optimal...
Drought is one of the severe environmental stresses threatening agriculture around globe. Nitric oxide plays diverse roles in plant growth and defensive responses. Despite a few studies supporting role nitric plants under drought responses, little known about its pivotal molecular amendment regulation stress signaling. In this study, label-free nano-liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry approach was used to determine effects sodium nitroprusside (SNP) on polyethylene glycol (PEG)-induced...
Flavonoids are an important class of natural compounds present in plants. However, despite various known biological activities and therapeutic potential, the low abundance flavonoids nature limits their development for industrial applications. In this study, we aimed to enhance flavonoid production by silencing cinnamate-4-hydroxylase (C4H), enzyme involved branch point biosynthetic pathway, using clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats interference (CRISPRi) approach. We...
The distribution patterns of flavonoids and cyclohexenyl chalcone derivatives in conventional propagated (CP) vitro -derived (CPA) field-grown plants an important medicinal ginger, Boesenbergia rotunda , are described. A total eight compounds were extracted from six organs (rootlet, rhizome, shoot base, maroon stem, stalk, leaf) the CP CPA plants. Five major chromatographic peaks, namely, alpinetin, pinocembrin, pinostrobin, 4-hydroxypanduratin A, panduratin consistently observed by high...
Water deficit caused by drought is a significant threat to crop growth and production. Nitric oxide (NO), water- lipid-soluble free radical, plays an important role in cytoprotection. Apart from few studies supporting the of NO responses, little known about this pivotal molecular amendment regulation abiotic stress signaling. In review, we highlight knowledge gaps roles under technical challenges underlying detection measurements, provide recommendations regarding potential avenues for...
