Characterization of Geraniol Synthase from the Peltate Glands of Sweet Basil [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 2004
Abstract The monoterpene fraction of the lemon-scented sweet basil (Ocimum basilicum) cv Sweet Dani consists mostly of citral (a mixture of geranial and neral), with lower levels of geraniol and nerol. These compounds are stored in the peltate glands found on the leaf epidermis. Younger leaves, which have a higher density of such glands,

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Ascetics, slaves, and necessity in Late Antiquity: renouncing all wealth, but for a single slave

open access: yesEarly Medieval Europe, EarlyView.
Slave owners in Late Antiquity viewed the possession of at least one slave to be a necessity and a defining mark that distinguished the dignified social classes from the poor. Ascetics who shared this perspective faced a choice when renouncing all worldly possessions in pursuit of spiritual perfection, one not merely about luxury, but also about status

Theodor Steinbüchel's Great Figures of Christian Humanism

open access: yesModern Theology, EarlyView.
Abstract Theodor Steinbüchel (1888–1949) offers a study of eight figures in Western history who may be regarded as gestalts of Christian Humanism. He argued that none of these eight figures will ever return in the same way, but since there was an eternal conception of Christianity to which their ethos gave human form, each of these gestalts can be ...
