mSystems, 2019 Clostridium (Clostridioides) difficile infection (CDI) is associated with dysbiosis. C. difficile has a characteristic propensity to persist and recur 1 to 4 weeks after treatment, but the mechanism is unknown. We hypothesized that C.

Indole-3-Acetonitrile Production from Indole Glucosinolates Deters Oviposition byPieris rapae [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2008 AbstractLike many crucifer-specialist herbivores, Pieris rapae uses the presence of glucosinolates as a signal for oviposition and larval feeding. Arabidopsis thaliana glucosinolate-related mutants provide a unique resource for studying the in vivo role of these compounds in affecting P. rapae oviposition.

Effect of feeding fermentable fibrerich feedstuffs on meat quality with emphasis on chemical and sensory boar taint in entire male and female pigs [PDF]
, 2008 Skatole, androstenone and other compounds such as indole cause boar taint in entire male pork. However, female pigs also produce skatole and indole. The purpose of this experiment was to minimise boar taint and increase overall impression of sensory ...

Anti-aphrodisiac compounds of male butterflies increase the risk of egg parasitoid attack by inducing plant synomone production [PDF]
, 2009 During mating in many butterfly species, males transfer spermatophores that contain anti-aphrodisiacs to females that repel conspecific males. For example, males of the large cabbage white, Pieris brassicae (Lepidoptera: Pieridae), transfer the anti ...

Characterization of indole-3-pyruvic acid pathway-mediated biosynthesis of auxin in Neurospora crassa. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Plants, bacteria and some fungi are known to produce indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) by employing various pathways. Among these pathways, the indole-3-pyruvic acid (IPA) pathway is the best studied in green plants and plant-associated beneficial microbes ...

Bacterial Indole as a Multifunctional Regulator of Klebsiella oxytoca Complex Enterotoxicity
mBio, 2022 Gastrointestinal microbes respond to biochemical metabolites that coordinate their behaviors. Here, we demonstrate that bacterial indole functions as a multifactorial mitigator of Klebsiella grimontii and Klebsiella oxytoca pathogenicity.

Production of indole pigments byCandida glabrata [PDF]
Medical Mycology, 2007 When provided as the sole nitrogen source tryptophan induces the production of several indole alkaloids, e.g., pityriacitrin, malasseziaindole, pityriaanhydride and pityriarubin with proven biological activity in the lipophilic yeast Malassezia furfur. So far these pigments seem to have been unique and only produced by highly specialized basidiomycetal

Production of indolic compounds by rhizobial bacteria
Zemljiste i biljka, 2023 Rhizobial bacteria, besides nitrogen fixation in symbiosis with legumes, can colonize the roots of nonlegumes and promote their growth by different mechanisms, independently of N2 fixation. Owing to this, rhizobia are considered a plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR). Some of the mechanisms of PGPR activity are phytohormone production. Selection
