Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (formerly Lactobacillus arabinosus and Lactobacillus plantarum) [3] is a widespread member of the genus Lactiplantibacillus and commonly found in many fermented food products as well as anaerobic plant matter. [4] L. plantarum was first isolated from saliva. Based on its ability to temporarily persist in plants ...
F. oxysporum strains are ubiquitous soil inhabitants that have the ability to exist as saprophytes, and degrade lignin [11] [12] and complex carbohydrates [13] [14] [1] associated with soil debris. They are pervasive plant endophytes that can colonize plant roots [ 15 ] [ 16 ] and may even protect plants or form the basis of disease suppression.
Pseudomonas syringae overwinters on infected plant tissues such as regions of necrosis or gummosis (sap oozing from wounds on the tree) but can also overwinter in healthy looking plant tissues. In the spring, water from rain or other sources will wash the bacteria onto leaves/blossoms where it will grow and survive throughout the summer. [16]
Protein supplements are extracts or concentrates of high protein foodstuffs, used in bodybuilding and as dietary supplements to fulfill protein intake in a lean and pure source of proteins and amino acids. They have three main variants: concentrate (food is taken and concentrated into a smaller volume with some fat and carb present), isolate ...
The strain Fusarium venenatum A3/5 (IMI 145425, ATCC PTA-2684 [4]) was developed commercially by an ICI and Rank Hovis McDougall joint venture to derive a mycoprotein used as a food. [1] Because the hyphae of the fungus are similar in length and width to animal muscle fibres [1] the mycoprotein is used as an alternative to meat and is marketed ...
Also mentioned in this review, as well as in more recent articles, is that mycoprotein contains no or very low levels of phytic acids (also known as phytates), which are notorious anti-nutrients present in many plant-based protein sources. This means that in contrast to most beans and legumes, consumption of mycoprotein does not inhibit the ...
Plant disease resistance is crucial to the reliable production of food, and it provides significant reductions in agricultural use of land, water, fuel, and other inputs. Plants in both natural and cultivated populations carry inherent disease resistance, but this has not always protected them.
The introduction of an ice-minus strain of P. syringae to the surface of plants would incur competition between the strains. Should the ice-minus strain win out, the ice nucleate provided by P. syringae would no longer be present, lowering the level of frost development on plant surfaces at normal water freezing temperature – 0 °C (32 °F).
