Stilbenic compounds recently have become the focus of a number of studies in medicine
and plant physiology as well as have emerged as promising molecules that potentially affect …

The grapevine phytoalexin resveratrol, the synthesis of which is achieved by stilbene synthase
(STS), displays a wide range of biological effects. Most interest has centred, in recent …

Phytoalexins are low molecular weight antimicrobial compounds that are produced by plants
as a response to biotic and abiotic stresses. As such they take part in an intricate defense …

Phytoalexins are antimicrobial substances of low molecular weight produced by plants in
response to infection or stress, which form part of their active defense mechanisms. Starting in …

Biosurfactants are amphiphilic surface-active molecules that are produced by a variety of
microorganisms including fungi and bacteria. Pseudomonas, Burkholderia, and Bacillus …

Abstract Development and optimisation of alternative strategies to reduce the use of classic
chemical inputs for protection against diseases in vineyard is becoming a necessity. Among …

Plant pathogens have evolved by developing different strategies to infect their host, which in
turn have elaborated immune responses to counter the pathogen invasion. The apoplast, …

The pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) family represents one of the largest gene families in plants,
with >440 members annotated in Arabidopsis thaliana. PPR proteins are thought to have …

Covering: 1976 to 2020. Although constituting a limited chemical family, phytostilbenes
represent an emblematic group of molecules among natural compounds. Ever since their …

Resveratrol, a stilbenic compound deriving from the phenyalanine/polymalonate route, being
stilbene synthase the last and key enzyme of this pathway, recently has become the focus …
