The article presents the potential of essential oils (EOs) as plant based pesticides against Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) (red flour beetle), a cosmopolitan secondary insect pest stored food products. Different EOs have been reported to date for their contact and fumigant toxicities, repellency oviposition deterrence, adult emergence inhibition, ovicidal, larvicidal, pupicidal antifeedant activities T. but only limited numbers them commercialized protection foods from infestation. Plant...
The study reports chemically characterised Myristica fragrans essential oil (MFEO) as plant based food preservative against fungal and aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) contamination of scented rice varieties. chemical profile MFEO revealed elemicin (27.08%), myristicine (21.29%) thujanol (18.55%) major components. minimum inhibitory concentrations were 2.75 1.5 mg/ml, respectively. was efficacious a broad spectrum deteriorating fungi. caused decrease in ergosterol content plasma membrane enhanced leakage...
The chemical characterisation of Pimenta dioica essential oil (PDEO) revealed the presence 50 components, amongst which α-Terpineol (30.31%) was major component followed by β-Linalool (6.75%) and γ-Terpinene (4.64%). completely inhibited growth aflatoxin B1 secreting strain Aspergillus flavus LHP-VS-8 production at 2.5 µL/mL 1.5 µL/mL, respectively. caused dose dependent reduction methylglyoxal (an AFB1 inducer), enhanced leakage Ca2+, Mg2+ K+ ions significantly reduced ergosterol content...
MATE (multidrug and toxic compound extrusion) transporters play multiple roles in plants including detoxification, secondary metabolite transport, aluminium (Al) tolerance, disease resistance. Here we identify characterize the role of Arabidopsis transporter DETOXIFICATION30. AtDTX30 regulates auxin homeostasis roots to modulate root development Al-tolerance. DTX30 is primarily expressed localizes plasma membrane epidermal cells hairs. dtx30 mutants exhibit reduced elongation primary root,...

The mechanisms of plant drought resistance are unclear but may involve membrane trafficking and metabolic reprogramming, including proline accumulation. Forward genetic screening using a
