Abstract Salicylic acid (SA) is an elicitor of abiotic stress tolerance in plants, but a comparative analysis of its effects across cereals remains under‐explored. This review article assesses the literature on the biological functioning of exogenous SA application (foliar‐ or root‐applied) in water‐stressed cereals.

Sweet immunity : inulin boosts resistance of lettuce (Lactuca sativa) against grey mold (Botrytis cinerea) in an ethylene-dependent manner [PDF]
The concept of Sweet Immunity postulates that sugar metabolism and signaling influence plant immune networks. In this study, we tested the potential of commercially available inulin-type fructans to limit disease symptoms caused by Botrytis cinerea in ...

This randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled trial demonstrated that probiotic supplementation in individuals with non‐celiac gluten/wheat sensitivity improved tolerance to gluten reintroduction in nearly half of participants. The effect was associated with beneficial shifts in gut microbiome composition and function, including enhanced microbial ...

Key Molecular and Metabolic Processes Used for Genetic Engineering to Improve Freezing Tolerance in Cereals [PDF]
It has been estimated recently that cereals are harvested on 700 million hectares (Mha) worldwide (Dunwell, 2014), and also that, due to low temperature damage, worldwide losses in crop production amount to about US$2 billion each year (Sanghera et ...

Immunological Properties of Inulin-Type Fructans [PDF]
Beneficial effects of inulin-type fructans are discussed in view of studies that applied the oligosaccharides in colon cancer, chronic inflammatory diseases, vaccination efficacy, and prevention of infection and allergy. In the present paper, we discuss their immunomodulating effects.
