Diverse bacterial species possess the ability to produce the auxin phytohormone indole-3-acetic acid (IAA). Different biosynthesis pathways have been identified and redundancy for IAA biosynthesis is widespread among plant-associated bacteria. Interactions between IAA-producing bacteria and plants lead to diverse outcomes on the plant side, varying from pathogenesis to phyto-stimulation. Review...

The cause(s) of primary outbreaks of the coral-eating crown-of-thorns starfish (Acanthaster planci) are still subject to scientific controversy. The possibility of primary outbreaks being linked to terrestrial runoff has been postulated a number of times, suggesting that enhanced nutrient supply is critical for enhanced A. planci larval development. This paper examines the evidence for such a c...

Natural phytoconstituents face challenges in exploring the vivo effect despite having enormous vitro therapeutic potential because of their low solubility and large complicated structures. To get over these obstacles, phyto vesicular combination comprising phospholipid complex is effective. This review offers details on phyto-vesicular complex, including information types phospholipids, solvent...

This paper brings up regarding the plant derived compounds with estrogenic activity. The authors correctly emphasize the need for control of estrogenicity of foods containing phyto-oestrogens in view of the significant health effects of various estrogenic derivatives. This is particularly essential in the light of the current wave of enthusiasm for vegetarian food in general and phytooestrogens...

The oestrogenic activity of certain cultivars of subterranean clover (Trifolium subterraneum, L.) first became known through the observation of serious infertility in ewes in the early 1940's in Western Australia (Bennetts, Underwood and Shier-1946). The manifestations in commercial flocks of the syndrome "clover disease" have been dealt with in the preceding paper (Lightfoot 1974). The deleter...

Observations on the role of ovarian hormones in breast cancer growth, as well as interest in contraception, stimulated research into the biology of estrogens. The identification of the classical receptors ERα and ERβ and the transmembrane receptor GPER and the resolution of the structure of the ligand bound to its receptor established the principal molecular mechanisms of estrogen action. The p...

Rose plants are affected by several diseases caused fungi, nematode, bacteria, viruses, and other pests. Among all of these, Curvularia lunata causes significant losses to Roses. Present study was focused on In-vitro In-vivo management the “Curvularia leaf spot Rose” using different fungicides phyto-extracts. Diseased samples were collected from floriculture area University Agriculture, Faisala...
