Effects of Raffinose on Growth Performance, Intestinal Function-Related Genes, and Cecal Microbiota in Broilers Fed Low Soybean Meal Diets [PDF]
AnimalsThis study investigated the effects of a low soybean meal (SBM) diet and its supplementation with graded levels of raffinose on the growth performance, expression of genes related to nutrient transport and intestinal function, and cecal microbiota of ...

Raffinose synthase enhances drought tolerance through raffinose synthesis or galactinol hydrolysis in maize and Arabidopsis plants [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2020 Raffinose and its precursor galactinol accumulate in plant leaves during abiotic stress. RAFFINOSE SYNTHASE (RAFS) catalyzes raffinose formation by transferring a galactosyl group of galactinol to sucrose. However, whether RAFS contributes to plant drought tolerance and, if so, by what mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we report that expression

Association of a Soybean Raffinose Synthase Gene with Low Raffinose and Stachyose Seed Phenotype
The Plant Genome, 2008 Oligosaccharides are an important component of soybean [ (L.) Merr.] meal in terms of metabolizable energy for monogastric animals. Sucrose, raffinose, and stachyose are the three main oligosaccharides present in soybean meal.

Raffinose induces autophagy to promote the growth of Arabidopsis Thaliana [PDF]
BMC Plant BiologyBackground Plant growth depends on the integration of environmental signals and nutrient availability. Under stress conditions, growth is often attenuated to prioritise defense, creating a trade-off between growth and stress responses.

Exploring Composition and Within-Population Variation in the Phloem Exudate “Manna” in Eucalyptus viminalis [PDF]
PlantsSugary phloem exudates are produced by many plant species and play key roles in carbon storage, defense, and ecological interactions. Among eucalypts, one such exudate, manna, is an important carbohydrate source for birds, mammals, and insects.

Screening and characterization of Lactobacillus strains producing large amounts of exopolysaccharides [PDF]
, 1998 A total of 182 Lactobacillus strains were screened for production of extracellular polysaccharides (EPS) by a new method: growth in liquid media with high sugar concentrations. Sixty EPS-positive strains were identified; 17 strains produced more than 100
