Microsomal detoxification enzymes in yam bean [Pachyrhizus erosus (L.) urban].
Cytochrome P450s and glutathione-S-transferases (GSTs) constitute two of the largest groups of enzyme families that are responsible for detoxification of exogenous molecules in plants. Their activities differ from plant to plant with respect to metabolism and substrate specificity which is one of the reasons for herbicide selectivity.

متن کاملCyclodextrins as encapsulation agents for plant bioactive compounds.
Plants possess a wide range of molecules capable of improve healing: fibre, vitamins, phytosterols, and further sulphur-containing compounds, carotenoids, organic acid anions and polyphenolics. However, they require an adequate level of protection from the environmental conditions to prevent losing their structural integrity and bioactivity. Cyclodextrins are cyclic oligosaccharides arising fro...
متن کاملInduction of chilling injury in jicama (Pachyrhizus erosus) roots: changes in texture, color and phenolics
Storage of jicama roots at 10 °C resulted in characteristic chill-induced changes in pulp color (decreased L* values and increased chroma) and texture (increased distance to rupture) after 7–14 days. Discoloration or browning of the pulp occurred first in exterior pulp tissue and then progressed to the interior tissue. Changes in texture during storage were similar in exterior and interior pulp...
