Proximate , mineral, vitamin, and anti-nutrient contents of the leaves of Senecio biafrae [PDF]

Journal of Agricultural Sciences (Belgrade), 2023
Micronutrient malnutrition is a global challenge. However, there are promising opportunities for combating it through the consumption of neglected and underutilized leafy green vegetables. Senecio biafrae is an underutilized and nutrient-rich green leafy

Accelerating the prioritisation of plant species with underexplored medicinal potential: The pm4mp (Phylogenetic Methods for Medicinal Plants) R package

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Medicinal plants used in ethnobotanical traditions to treat or prevent diseases have gained renewed interest for their largely untapped potential in drug discovery. In this study, we developed and tested novel methods to prioritise plant species based on their unexplored medicinal potential. By enabling researchers to target the most promising species,

Cyanogenic Compounds, Physicochemical Parameters and Metals in Water From Cassava Processing Areas: A Study in the Brazilian Amazon, Using Multivariate Analysis

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the water quality of artesian wells and effluents generated in cassava processing in a rural area of Bragança, Pará, with emphasis on physicochemical parameters, multielement composition, and cyanogenic compounds. The well water presented specific nonconformities, highlighting pH values below the recommended level and high

Visualization of cyanogenic glycosides in floral tissues

, 2022
Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI) is a particularly useful tool to determine the localization of metabolites in plant tissues enabling the exploration of spatial metabolic processes in plant biology.

Estimation of Tannin, Saponin, Oxalate, Cyanogenic and Cardiac Glycosides in Garsinia Kola [PDF]

, 2002
The presence of some secondary plant metabolites - tannin, saponin, oxalate, cyanogenic and cardiac glycosides were done in Garsinia Cola. The tannin, saponin and oxalate content were 0.69 ± 0.01, 15.79 ± 0.28 and 1.707 ± 0.13 mg/100g of dry sample ...

Alternatives to Chromatography in Plant Breeding

Julius-Kühn-Archiv, 2016
Wild plants were taken into cultivation because of special features. Usually, medicinal plants or spices show distinct secondary metabolites combined with a specific pattern of these compounds.

Reduction of cyanogenic glycosides by extrusion - influence of temperature and moisture content of the processed material [PDF]

Acta Periodica Technologica, 2015
Тhe paper presents results of the investigation of the influence of extrusion temperature and moisture content of treated material on the reduction of cyanogenic glycosides (CGs) in linseed-based co-extrudate. CGs are the major limitation of the

Deciphering Role of Endophytes in Plant Defences and Biotic Stress Resilience Across Families

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant families generate distinct repertoires of specialised metabolites that govern their biotic interactions. Endophytes strengthen host plant defence mechanisms and tolerance to biotic challenges by upregulating metabolite biosynthesis, modifying precursor compounds into more potent forms, or by directly synthesising analogous defence ...

Plant Cyanogenic-Derived Metabolites and Herbivore Counter-Defences

Plants
The release of cyanide from cyanogenic precursors is the central core of the plant defences based on the cyanogenesis process. Although cyanide is formed as a coproduct of some metabolic routes, its production is mostly due to the degradation of ...
