Accordingly, a fumigant molecule, isosecotanapartholide (ISTP) from <em>Artemisia vulgaris</em> L., has been isolated and characterized following laboratory bioassays against stored grain insect pests. Physicochemical and spectroscopic analyses correlated with literature data to yield the structure of ISTP, a volatile organic compound. The isolated organic compound is highly toxic to adults of <em>Sitophilus oryzae</em> (L.), <em>Tribolium castaneum</em> (Herbst.) and <em>Corcyra cephalonica</em> (Stainton) with LC₅₀ values of 1.82, 2.19 and 1.83 μg/L respectively. ISTP also exhibits potent acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor activity <em>in vivo</em> and <em>in vitro</em> analysis. Additionally, molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation analysis provide insight into the possible interaction between ISTP and AChE of <em>S. oryzae</em>, without any adverse effect on seed germination. In summary, ISTP from <em>A. vulgaris</em> source is a potential insecticide against stored grain insect pests and alternative to synthetic pesticides.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54198,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Agricultural Science","volume":"69 1","pages":"Pages 78-87"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0570178324000083/pdfft?md5=81ca56413acd2888945ccad7226765c8&pid=1-s2.0-S0570178324000083-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142129115","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, application of GABA in kiwifruit plants to resist external stresses has not been reported yet. This study found that pre-irrigation of kiwifruit plants with 0.5 mM GABA was effective in alleviating the heat damage on them. GABA treatment led to better antioxidant capacity and reduced ROS production in kiwifruit plants under high temperature. Moreover, exogenous GABA protected the photosynthetic system of kiwifruit plants when exposed to high temperature. Particularly, we found that endogenous ABA, Glu, Pro metabolisms were participated in the GABA-mediated heat resistance of kiwifruit plants. Furthermore, GABA treatment induced higher expression of <em>AdHsps</em> in kiwifruit plants, being partly responsible for their better performance under heat stress. In summary, this research first demonstrated that exogenous GABA treatment plays a positive role in kiwifruit plants to response to extreme heat stress.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54198,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Agricultural Science","volume":"68 2","pages":"Pages 137-147"},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0570178323000301/pdfft?md5=f0b83b67236591d50bfc08f693cc2ed6&pid=1-s2.0-S0570178323000301-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138577815","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
