Use of mannans as an elicitor of the defense response on Vitis vinifera against fungi causing Grapevine Trunk Diseases. [PDF]
PLoS ONEGrapevine Trunk Diseases (GTDs) are caused by phytopathogenic fungi that compromise grapevine productivity and wine quality. Most GTDs preventive treatments are chemical-based and environmentally harmful. One goal of the European Green Deal is to develop

Softening-up mannan-rich cell walls [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2012 The softening and degradation of the cell wall (CW), often mannan enriched, is involved in several processes during development of higher plants, such as meristematic growth, fruit ripening, programmed cell death, and endosperm rupture upon germination ...

The human gut Firmicute Roseburia intestinalis is a primary degrader of dietary β-mannans
Nature Communications, 2019 How dietary β-mannans are utilized by gut Gram-positive bacteria is unclear. Here, the authors uncover the enzymatic pathway for β-mannan metabolism in Roseburia intestinalis and show that these polysaccharides promote beneficial gut bacteria ...
