Article Abstract
An endophytic actinomycete strain St24 with acaricidal activity was isolated from the root-stem junction of tomato plants, with the taxonomic position of the strain and its control effect against gray mold disease investigated. The St24 was identified as Streptomyces vinaceus, and its broth's petroleum ether extracts could inhibit a variety of pathogens. The inhibitory effect of the extracts on Botrytis cinerea was the strongest, with the EC50 of inhibiting B. cinerea mycelia growth being 11.78 mg x L(-1). After treated with the extracts, the amount of the mycelia decreased, and the mycelia became crenate or broken, with the protoplast extravasated and the tuberculate malformation appeared. The B. cinerea culture treated with the extracts showed the maximum absorption at 260 nm, which was absent in the control, indicating that the St24 extracts increased the pathogens cell membrane permeability. Pot experiment showed that the extracts could protect tomato plants against B. cinerea. Foliar spraying the extracts at 100 mg x L(-1) had the best protective effect, with the controlling effect reached 94.3% after 24 h and 85.4% after 120 h.

Tomato brown rugose fruit virus (ToBRFV) overcomes all known tomato resistance genes, including the durable Tm-2, posing a serious threat to global tomato production. Here, we employed in vitro random mutagenesis to evolve the Tm-2 leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domain and screened ∼8,000 variants for gain-of-function mutants capable of recognizing the ToBRFV movement protein (MP) and triggering hypersensitive cell death. We identified five such mutants.

Soil washing with surfactants is a promising technique for remediating petroleum hydrocarbon-contaminated soils. This study evaluates a biosurfactant extracted from Eichhornia crassipes (water hyacinth), an abundant aquatic weed in Thailand, using ultrasound-assisted extraction for diesel-contaminated soil remediation. The biosurfactant extract (Extract WH) was characterized for its surface tension reduction, critical micelle concentration (CMC), emulsification capacity with diesel, and phytotoxicity.

Fungal endophytes and epiphytes associated with plant leaves can play important ecological roles through the production of specialized metabolites encoded by biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs). However, their functional capacity, especially in crops like lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.), remains poorly understood.

Plastoglobuli (PG) are plant lipoprotein compartments, present in plastid organelles. They are involved in the formation and/or storage of lipophilic metabolites. FIBRILLINs (FBNs) are one of the main PG-associated proteins and are particularly abundant in carotenoid-enriched chromoplasts found in ripe fruits and flowers.

A novel molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP)-based electrochemical sensor has been developed for the selective detection of naringenin (NAR) in various real-world samples, including plant extracts, wine, and herbal supplements. To enhance the active surface area and porosity of the glassy carbon electrode (GCE), a 2D/0D nanocomposite composed of graphene oxide (GO) and cobalt ferrite (CFO) nanoparticles, CFO_GO, was incorporated into the sensor design. 4-aminobenzoic acid (4-ABA) was selected as the functional monomer to prepare the MIPs.
