Crosstalk of brassinosteroids with other phytohormones under various abiotic stresses
Journal Title: Journal of Applied Biology & Biotechnology - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Brassinosteroids (BRs) are the most important growth hormones which are steroidal in nature play crucially involved in growth and progressions of the plant. In recent years, advancements done in accessibility of biological possessions and approaches led to the most applicable mechanisms involved in BRs de novo synthesis, translocation and signaling pathways. The current researchers are also associated with the flexible roles of BRs. From the previous studies, it was manifest that BRs interaction with salicylic acid, abscisic acid, auxin, gibberellin, ethylene, cytokinin, and jasmonic acid in controlling numerous morphophysiological processes in plants. In this section, an effort is made to understand mysterious development and growth-linked either directly or not directly to BRs signaling and its intra- and interrelations with various phytohormones. This, in sequence, will support emerging extrapolative representations to moderate various valuable qualities in plants and address current encounters in agriculture.
Practiced Gram negative bacteria from dyeing industry effluents snub metal toxicity to survive
Isolation and characterization of metal-tolerant bacteria from dyeing industry effluent was the prime drive of the present investigation. Results yielded during screening and isolation, noted the dominance of bacteria ve...
Mild Acid Hydrolysis-related Release of Water-soluble Sunscreen Pigments from the Exopolysaccharide Matrix of Edible Terrestrial Cyanobacteria
Terrestrial cyanobacteria, Nostoc flagelliforme and Nostoc commune, are important natural resource for producing ultraviolet-absorbing mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs), in addition to their edible value. MAAs can be u...
Determination of phytochemical, antioxidant, antimicrobial, and protein binding qualities of hydroethanolic extract of Celastrus paniculatus
The study was performed to check the chemical, antioxidant, antimicrobial, and protein binding qualities of the hydroethanolic extract of Celastrus paniculatus (CP). Hydroethanolic extract of CP exhibited low antibacteri...
Bioactive potential of Diadema sp. from the South East Coast of Mauritius
As a consequence of the alarming rise in antimicrobial resistance, this study aimed at evaluating the bioactive potential of sea urchin extract, Diadema sp. Two different tissues; shells and gonads were used and two dryi...
Modulation of some biochemical complications arising from alloxan-induced diabetic conditions in rats treated with Senna occidentalis leaf extract
The present study was designed to evaluate the effects of Senna occidentalis in alloxan-induced diabetic and its complications in Wistar rats. Thirty male Wistar rats with body weight ranging from 180–250 g were selected...
