Significance of Antioxidant Potential of Plants and its Relevance to Therapeutic Applications

The physiology and redox biology of both plants and humans are reviewed to improve the understanding of plant antioxidants as therapeutic entities and the applications and limitations of antioxidant activity measurement assays were highlighted to identify the precise path to be followed for future research in the area of plant antioxidant research.

The beneficial endophyte Trichoderma hamatum isolate DIS 219b promotes growth and delays the onset of the drought response in Theobroma cacao

The primary direct effect of DIS 219b colonization was promotion of root growth, regardless of water status, and an increase in water content which it is proposed caused a delay in many aspects of the drought response of cacao.

Additional freeze hardiness in wheat acquired by exposure to -3 degreesC is associated with extensive physiological, morphological, and molecular changes.

Results indicate that the enhanced freezing tolerance of SZA is correlated with a wide diversity of changes, indicating that the additional freezing tolerance is the result of complex biological processes.

Identification of new members of the MAPK gene family in plants shows diverse conserved domains and novel activation loop variants

The study showed the presence of several new activation loop motifs and diverse conserved domains in MAPKs, the most downstream module of the three tier MAPK cascade, which is of critical importance in plants and other eukaryotic organisms.

Canopy photosynthesis, evapotranspiration, leaf nitrogen, and transcription profiles of maize in response to CO2 enrichment

It is concluded that maize did not exhibit enhanced growth or photosynthesis in response to CO2 enrichment but a number of molecular and physiological processes including those involved in stomatal relations were affected by growth in elevated Ca.

Detection of starch adulteration in onion powder by FT-NIR and FT-IR spectroscopy.

The FT-NIR data were of greater predictive value than the FT-IR data, and the first three principal component loadings and β coefficients of the PLSR model revealed starch-related absorption.
