Traditional medicinal plants are a rich source of antimicrobials; however, the bioactive peptide constituents of most ethnobotanical species remain largely unexplored. Herein, PepSAVI-MS, a mass spectrometry-based peptidomics pipeline, was implemented for antimicrobial peptide (AMP) discovery in the

BACKGROUND Pollens represent a rich source of proteins that are also potential elicitors of IgE-mediated pollen allergy. Sensitisation to panallergens could play an important role in diagnosis and specific immunotherapy, because these molecules are present in different plant pollens and plant foods

In plants, betaine is synthesized upon abiotic stress via choline oxidation, in which choline monooxygenase (CMO) is a key enzyme. Although it had been thought that betaine synthesis is well regulated to protect abiotic stress, it is shown here that an exogenous supply of precursors such as choline,

The mechanism and expression of resistance to glyphosate at different plant growing temperatures was investigated in an Amaranthuspalmeri population (VM1) from a soybean field in Vicuña Mackenna, Cordoba, Argentina. Resistance was not due to reduced glyphosate translocation to

Roots are the primary sites of water stress perception in plants. The aim of this work was to study differential expression of proteins and transcripts in amaranth roots (Amaranthus hypochondriacus L.) when the plants were grown under drought stress. Changes in protein abundance within the roots

Water deficit stress (WDS)-tolerance in grain amaranths (Amaranthus hypochondriacus, A. cruentus and A. caudatus), and A. hybridus, their presumed shared ancestor, was examined. A. hypochondriacus was the most WDS-tolerant species, a trait that correlated with an

C₄ species, Amaranthus viridis L. exhibited a significant bioaccumulation of aluminium (Al) through the duration of 3- and 5-days exposure. As compared to control, Amaranthus appeared as excess-accumulator with maximum 5.85-fold bioaccumulation of Al in root. Cellular

OBJECTIVE Determining the mode of action of allelochemicals is one of the challenging aspects in allelopathic studies. Recently, allelochemicals have been proposed to cause oxidative stress in target tissue and induce an antioxidant mechanism. alpha-Pinene, one of the common monoterpenoids emitted

The study was performed to explore physiological, non-enzymatic and enzymatic detoxification pathways of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in tolerance of Amaranthus tricolor under drought stress. The tolerant genotype VA13 exhibited lower reduction in growth, photosynthetic pigments, relative water

Four selected Amaranthus tricolor cultivars were grown under four irrigation regimes (25, 50, 80, and 100% field capacity) to evaluate the mechanisms of growth and physiological and biochemical responses against drought stress in randomized complete block design with three replications. Drought

From murine medullary thymocytes we purified the receptor for the Amaranthus leucocarpus lectin (ALL) using a complex with the biotin-labeled lectin and avidin-agarose as the affinity matrix. Most ALL(+)thymocytes (83%) are naive cells with the CD4(+)CD8(-)CD45RB(+)phenotype. The receptor for this
