Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleSuppression of Salicylic Acid-Mediated Plant Defense Responses During Initial Infection of Dyer's Woad by Puccinia thlaspeosBradley R. Kropp, Elizabeth ThomasProblem statement: Puccinia thlaspeos is a microcyclic rust pathogen that is being investigated as a potential biocontrol agent of the noxious weed, dyer’s woad (Isatis tinctoria). Although, the initial events in the colonization of dyer’s woad by the rust pathogen has been elucidated using scanning electron microscopy and PCR, little is known regarding the susceptibility response of this plant to … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 4 Aug 2011 · 8,033 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleUnraveling the Mechanisms of Plant Structural Defenses against Insect PestsAroni Preya Biswas, Roksana Al Nafiu Insha, Md. Khairul Mazed et al.Plants employ a variety of physical, chemical, and genetic strategies to defend against herbivore attacks. These biochemical defense mechanisms are complex and dynamic, encompassing both direct and indirect responses. Defense-related chemicals, whether constitutive or induced by herbivore damage, significantly influence herbivore feeding behavior, growth, and survival. Plant defense systems impact herbivore nutrition, development, and survival, highlighting the importance of chemical … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 7 Jan 2025 · 5,793 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDoes Trichomes on the Plant Epidermic Surface Disturb Ants Locomotion?Danon Clemes Cardoso, Maykon Passos Cristiano, Lenise Cristina Moraes Vilela, Tiago de Arruda MartinsProblem Statement: Many morphological characteristics, both physical and chemical, are used in the defense against herbivores on plants. Trichomes are structures used by plants as physics defense and when associated with glands combine physics and chemistry defense. Many species of ants are herbivores and use leaves and seeds, others ants use Extra Floral Nectars as a food resource, and the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 9,350 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdvances in Modern Biotechnological Tools for Sustainable Control of Plant Viral DiseasesNabela Akter, Ankita Saha, Md. Abdullah Al Sabbir, Md. Motaher HossainPlant viruses pose a major threat to global food production, causing yield losses across many staple and horticultural crops. Conventional breeding for resistance is typically slow and constrained by the number of available natural resistance genes. Recent breakthroughs in biotechnology have enabled the development of accurate, flexible, and environmentally friendly technologies to confer virus resistance. This review summarizes exciting developments … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 2 · 16 Jul 2026 · 726 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBio-Exploration of Plant Growth-Promoting Fungus Trichoderma as a Potent Candidate for Plant Disease Management: An OverviewMd. Tanbir Rubayet, Md. Motaher HossainChemical pesticides are widely used to control plant diseases, but their widespread use can have a detrimental impact on the environment and human health. This has led researchers and growers to seek out alternative solutions. One promising approach is the use of the Plant Growth-Promoting Fungus (PGPF) Trichoderma spp. as a biological control agent. This method is effective, cost-efficient, and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 21 Sep 2024 · 5,107 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Root Rot in Soybean Cultivars with Diverse Susceptibility to the Disease on Plant Physiology, Yield, Amino Acids and Mycotoxins Profile in Climatic Conditions of KazakhstanNurlan Kuldybayev, Yerlan Dutbayev, Bozena Lozowicka et al.Soybean is an important high-value crop but susceptible to soil-borne diseases. A field trial was conducted in Kazakhstan to evaluate the effects of soybean cultivars and Fusarium root rot severity on soybean crop physiology, chlorophyll fractions and amino acids profile. The highest yield was achieved in 2018 (up to 4 t ha-1) for K-9648 cultivar. The greatest root rot severity … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 4 · 27 Dec 2021 · 6,299 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEmployer Rights and Legal Defenses to OSHA CitationsThomas Oriet, Dr. Leo OrietCongress placed a statutory duty on the employer and employee to be safe in the workplace, but the courts do not reciprocate this duty onto employees. 1With plant managers understandably unaware of their rights,2 and with governmental tactics to obtain consent for administrative ease,3 a company's threat to litigation may derive from its ignorance of the law. This paper aims … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 13 Aug 2018 · 16,501 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Dietary Kaempferia parviflora on Ischemic Brain Injury in the ratWathita Phachonpai, Sinthuporn Maharun, Supaporn Muchimapura et al.Problem statement: Stroke often causes irreversible neuronal damage and related behavioral deficits. The lack of effective and widely applicable pharmacological treatments for ischemic stroke patients may explain a growing interest in traditional plant medicines. We investigated the ability of consuming Kaempferia parviflora extract, a Thai medicinal plant reputed for neuroprotective effects against brain damage, reduced infarct volume and improve neurological … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 20 Mar 2012 · 9,088 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUnderstand the Role of Natural KillerHan Yuen Lam, Swee Keong Yeap, Noorjahan Banu Alitheen et al.Problem statement: Immunosuppression is a common approach for pathogens or cancer to escape from immune system of the infected host. Some of the antimicrobe or anticancer drugs may also weaken the body immune system. Among various types of immune cell, natural killer cells are the key component of the innate immunity which plays an important role in first line defense … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 5 Aug 2011 · 7,935 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractResistance to Citrus Canker in Key/Mexican Lime Induced by β-Aminobutyric Acid and Green TeaB. Beheshti, G.R. Sharifi-Sirchi, M. Mansouri et al.Citrus bacterial canker, caused by Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (Xcc), is a destructive disease. So far used chemicals to control this pathogen are either not effective or have harmful effects on the environment.
