A valuable composition of Mentha piperita L. essential oil is menthol that is widely used fordifferent industries. The plants were treated with different concentrations of Methyl Jasmonate (MeJA) and after 24 h were evaluated for total soluble proteins, chlorophylls (a, b, and total), malondialdehyde, carbohydrates and antioxidant enzymes (Superoxide dismutase and Guaiacol peroxidase). Variance...

This data descriptor introduces a transcriptome dataset of strawberry plant left exposed to an LED light treatment and hormones Methyl Jasmonate (MeJA) Salicylate (MeSA). These consist (four libraries) obtained from the leaves plants treated with LEDs blue red spectrums (MeSA), which allowed us conduct further analysis growth development processes plants. In addition, we describe detailed proce...

We report here the effect of increased amount a water-immiscible ionic liquid (IL), 1-butyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (P14-TFSI), enhancing production paclitaxel with in situ extraction from an aqueous medium plant cell culture. The productivity culture including IL 10 vol% was 1.5 times greater than that 2.5 vol%. Moreover, addition elicitor, methyl jasmonate (MJ...

Jasmonates regulate transcriptional reprogramming during growth, development, and defense responses. Jasmonoyl-isoleucine, an amino acid conjugate of jasmonic acid (JA), is perceived by the protein complex composed of the F-box protein CORONATINE INSENSITIVE1 (COI1) and JASMONATE ZIM DOMAIN (JAZ) proteins, leading to the ubiquitin-dependent degradation of JAZ proteins. This activates basic heli...

Studies on direct and indirect defenses of lima bean (Phaseolus lunatus L.) revealed a quantitative trade-off between cyanogenesis and the total quantitative release of herbivore-induced volatile organic compounds (VOCs). In this addendum we focus on the qualitative variability in the VOC bouquets. We found intraspecific and ontogenetic variation. Five out of eleven lima bean accessions lacked ...

To deter pathogenic microorganisms and herbivores, plants have developed an inducible chemical defense system. It is known that the induced synthesis of low molecular weight compounds can be provoked by exposing cultured cells to fungal cell wall fragments. In this study we show that endogenous jasmonic acid and its methyl ester accumulate rapidly and transiently after treatment of plant cell s...

The connections leading from genotype to fitness are not well understood, yet they are crucial for a diverse set of disciplines. Uncovering the general properties of biochemical pathways that influence ecologically important traits is an effective way to understand these connections. Enzyme flux control (or, control over pathway output) is one such pathway property. The flux-controlling enzyme ...

Behavioural responses of Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae), a generalist, cell sap-feeding insect species with piercing-sucking mouthparts, after continuous exposure to two deterrent secondary plant compounds are investigated. We compared in choice assays on bean leaf discs, the settling, feeding, and oviposition preferences of F. occidentalis females that had no e...

Plant hormones can adjust the physiology and development of plants to enhance their adaptation biotic abiotic challenges. Jasmonic acid (JA), one immunity in plants, triggers genome-wide transcriptional changes response insect attack wounding. Although JA is known affect trichomes, epidermal appendages that form a protective barrier against various stresses, it remains unclear how interacts wit...
