Bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia solanacearum is the most destructive disease of plants. Fifty-seven isolates of R. solanacearum causing wilt on different host plants viz., tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), brinjal (S. melongena), potato (S. tuberosum), bird of paradise (Strelitzia reginae), ginger (Zingiber officinale), chili (Capsicum annuum), capsicum (Capsicum annuum), davana (Artemisia pall...

The Thailand cultivar pepper 'phrik man bangchang' (Capsicum annuum var. acuminatum, Solanaceae) was originally cultivated in the Bangchang Subdistrict, Amphawa District in Samut Songkhram Province. The cultivated areas are limited; we verified its distribution in Thailand for in situ 'phrik man bangchang' genetic resource conservation. Samples were collected from the original cultivation area ...

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have many benefits in the health sector, it has antimicrobial and biomedical Activity. AgNPs can be synthesized by using green chemistry or chemical substances, such as NaBH4. Green synthesis of is an environmentally friendly alternative cost-effective production. Capsicum annuum L. combined with Saffron extract was used to synthesize AgNPs. The biosynthesis, charac...

Bacillus subtilis 2C-9B, obtained from the rhizosphere of wild grass, exhibits inhibition against root rot causal pathogens in Capsicum annuum, Pb and Zn tolerance, and plant growth promotion in medium supplemented with Pb. The genome of B. subtilis 2C-9B was sequenced and the draft genome assembled, with a length of 4,215,855 bp and 4,723 coding genes.

Excavations at Guilá Naquitz and Silvia's Cave, two dry rockshelters near Mitla, Oaxaca, Mexico, yielded the remains of 122 chili peppers dating to the period A.D. 600-1521. The chilies can be assigned to at least 10 cultivars, all belonging to the species Capsicum annuum or Capsicum frutescens. The specimens are well enough preserved to permit an evaluation of the criteria used to separate wil...

Availability of complete plastid genomes of ten solanaceous species, Atropa belladonna, Capsicum annuum, Datura stramonium, Nicotiana sylvestris, Nicotiana tabacum, Nicotiana tomentosiformis, Nicotiana undulata, Solanum bulbocastanum, Solanum lycopersicum, and Solanum tuberosum provided us with an opportunity to conduct their in silico comparative analysis in depth. The size of complete chlorop...
