Laminaria digitata Extract Improved Leaf Meristem Protection Under Drought and Nitrogen Uptake After Rehydration Through Hormesis‐Based Chemical Priming in Lolium perenne

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 48, Issue 9, Page 6674-6690, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Drought is among the most damaging stress for plants, impacting crop yield and grassland sustainability. This study aimed to evaluate the biostimulant effect of an algal extract from Laminaria digitata on Lolium perenne cultivated in a growth chamber. Leaves were sprayed at different concentrations 7 days before stopping irrigation.

Innovative Thermosensitive Composite Materials: Merging Poloxamer PF‐127 and Polysaccharides for Enhanced Functional Properties

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 310, Issue 7, July 2025.
The poloxamer Pluronic‐F‐127‐based hydrogels are improved by the implementation of polysaccharides with different concentration ranges and structural organizations. The interactions between the polysaccharide structures and the poloxamer micellar aggregation confer the system better rheological properties and longer drug release times explained by ...

Fructan biosynthesis and degradation as part of plant metabolism controlling sugar fluxes during durum wheat kernel maturation

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Wheat kernels contain fructans, fructose based oligosaccharides with prebiotic properties, in levels between 2 and 35 weight % depending on the developmental stage of the kernel.

Nutritional enhancement of animal feed and forage crops via genetic modification

Journal of the Royal Society of New Zealand, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 327-342, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Introducing beneficial productivity and nutritional traits into food, feed and forage crops utilising the tools of biotechnology can lead to improvements via genetic modification that cannot be achieved by traditional plant breeding. The timelines and costs are significant, and the regulatory hurdles can lead to some promising traits failing ...

Single-nucleotide polymorphisms, mapping and association analysis of 1-FFT-A1 gene in wheat

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2017
Fructans are major nonstructural carbohydrates in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Fructan 1-fructosyltransferase (1-FFT) is the key enzyme in fructan biosynthesis. In the present study, 96 sequence variants were detected in the 1-FFT-A1 gene among 26 wheat

Heterologous expression of Aspergillus terreus fructosyltransferase in Kluyveromyces lactis

New Biotechnology, 2016
Fructo-oligosaccharides are prebiotic and hypocaloric sweeteners that are usually extracted from chicory. They can also be produced from sucrose using fructosyltransferases, but the only commercial enzyme suitable for this purpose is Pectinex Ultra, which is produced with Aspergillus aculeatus.
