It contains a variety of bioactive phytochemicals and exhibited several biological activities. This study aimed to assess the phytochemical screening, total phenolic, total flavonoid, and total tannin compounds, as well as the antioxidant capacity and antimicrobial activity. The phytochemical screening involved color reactions, characteristic reagents, and precipitation methods. Total phenolic, flavonoid, and tannin compounds were quantified using colorimetric methods across four fractions. Antioxidant capacity was assessed using 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging, ferric reducing antioxidant power, 2,2’-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) radical scavenging, and phosphomolebdenum assay. The antimicrobial activity was evaluated through disc diffusion method and the microdilution assay. Qualitative phytochemical tests revealed the presence of flavonoids, tannins, terpenoids, alkaloids, and sterols. Quantification of total phenolic, flavonoid, and tannin compounds confirmed the richness of polyphenolic compounds in all fractions. The antioxidant capacity measurements revealed that the ethanol fractions exhibited the highest antioxidant capacity in 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl, ferric reducing antioxidant power assays, and phosphomolebdenum assay. Conversely, the aqueous fraction showed highest activity in the 2,2’-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) assay. Regarding antimicrobial activity, the ethyl acetate fraction demonstrated superior efficacy against Staphylococcus aureus, and Bacillus cereus. These findings suggest that R. monosperma could serve as a valuable source of antioxidant and anti-infective phytocompounds.","PeriodicalId":509766,"journal":{"name":"Plant Science Today","volume":"297 1‐2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140719694","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

(Moraceae), a tree native to the tropics and subtropics that has been used traditionally in folk medicine. The crude extracts have been the focus of many studies due to its wide range of biological effects. Even though the species has been the subject of numerous pharmacologically based studies, very few studies have published on their findings. Attempts to bridge this knowledge gap are being made to enhance the species' utility in modern research. The following review looks at all research articles on anti-diabetic, antioxidant, antibacterial, antimicrobial, drugs, antiviral, traditional medicine, ethnopharmacology, toxicity, and cytotoxic activity. Therapeutically, some of the more fascinating impacts are on cancer prevention, liver diseases, blood sugar and antimicrobial activity. While the leaves, fruits and latex of the F. carica plant have been the primary focus of biological research, the stem and roots have got almost minimal attention. The results of this investigation indicate that extracts from all parts of F. carica are non-toxic. However, further well-planned clinical trials are required to confirm preclinical findings because the safety and effectiveness of F. carica have not been fully evaluated in humans. It is important to investigate the extract's mechanism of action. Establishing the standard dose and safety is necessary.","PeriodicalId":509766,"journal":{"name":"Plant Science Today","volume":"75 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140726281","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We have evaluated whether antioxidant potential could be nominated as a potential marker of drought resistance in three maize hybrids (SC01, SC703, and SC720). Underwater deficiency in all maize hybrids decreased significantly compared to control samples in grain yield, photosynthetic pigments, and phenolic compounds. In contrast, proline and glycine betaine (GB) significantly increased. In contrast, a significant increase (p<?0.05) was detected in the lipid peroxidation indicator of malondialdehyde (MDA). The hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and total soluble proteins remained unaffected under drought stress in the three maize hybrids. Electrophoretic investigations attributed three, two, and one isoforms, respectively, to peroxidase (POX), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and catalase (CAT). In the studied maize hybrids, SOD isoforms, including Fe-SOD, Cu/Zn-SOD, and Mn-SOD, appeared on the 8% slab polyacrylamide gels. The water stress decreases Mn-SOD, Cu/Zn-SOD, and Fe-SOD activities in all three hybrids. Further, POX1, POX2, and CAT activities decreased in SC01 and SC703, while they increased in SC720 under water deficit stress. In all maize hybrids, oxidative stress from water limitation leads to significant changes in the enzymatic/non-enzymatic antioxidants and main organic osmolytes. Based on the current study's findings, we believe that Cu/Zn-SOD activity, proline, and photosynthetic pigments might be used as biochemical indicators of water stress tolerance.","PeriodicalId":509766,"journal":{"name":"Plant Science Today","volume":"71 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140724932","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite several studies on the perspectives of the chemistry of lac and its production, very little work has been carried out to understand the biology of lac and its associated plant taxa. The present work has been designed to understand the preliminary response if any, of the host plant against lac insect infestation. Structural studies and metabolic profiling such as the determination of total phenolics, flavonoids, antioxidants, FTIR, and GC-MS were carried out. The anatomical investigations revealed coagulation/deposition of metabolites in the infested sites. The infested bark showed higher phenolic, flavonoid content, and antioxidant activity in comparison to non-infested bark which was corroborated by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and GC-MS biochemical analysis. This preliminary study will shed some light on understanding the lac plant host's physiological response and the putative mechanism used by the lac insect in overcoming the plant response.","PeriodicalId":509766,"journal":{"name":"Plant Science Today","volume":"96 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140750872","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Among the eleven principal components (PCs) examined, four PCs exhibited eigenvalues surpassing 1.0, collectively contributing to 80.45% of the total variability in the traits. PC1, which explained 31.19% of the overall variance, was associated with plant height, days to 50% flowering, panicle length, grain breadth, and grain length-to-breadth ratio. Utilizing cluster analysis, the 20 rice landraces were categorized into seven distinct clusters. Maximum inter-cluster divergence was observed between clusters VI and I, as well as clusters VI and V, indicating greater genetic distinctiveness among genotypes in these clusters compared to others. Notably, rice landraces such as Borosolpana, Phougak, Satyaranjan, Kakcheng Phou, Moniram, Kanaklata, and Bahadur were identified as genetically divergent.

In response to this demand, new production technologies are being actively developed in the food market. One of the interesting innovations in this area is the development of a technology for making yogurt from combined cow and mare milk enriched with plant extract in Kazakhstan. The purpose of this work is to determine the optimal technology for the manufacture of yogurt from combined milk, with the integration of advanced methods for processing the finished product and raw materials and to consider ways to obtain industrial strains of lactic acid bacteria that can potentially be used in the manufacture of such a product. To determine the list of bacteria, the data prescribed in the state standards and the results obtained in the publications of the reviewed studies were used. Also, the work uses theoretical methods of scientific knowledge, such as deduction, induction, abstraction, analysis and comparison of methodologies described in the scientific literature and synthesis based on their theoretical methodology for further testing. The state regulatory documents regulating various aspects of the manufacture of fermented milk products have been studied. The probable optimal sequence of processes for the manufacture of a fermented milk product has also been determined, starting from the preliminary preparation of raw materials of animal origin, to their combination and fermentation itself. At the same time, the number of manipulations carried out due to exposure to high temperatures is minimized. The main directions for checking the compliance of the finished product with state standards defined for similar products and how such a product will meet consumer expectations are outlined. The results of this work will form the theoretical basis for experimental studies to be carried out in the future.","PeriodicalId":509766,"journal":{"name":"Plant Science Today","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139959362","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
