TL;DR: The large number of transcripts reported in the current study will serve as a valuable genetic resource for Trigonella foenum‐graecum and could be used for metabolic engineering of Trig onella fenugreek to increase diosgenin content.

TL;DR: A review of the cultivation, genetics, ecophysiology and traditional uses of fenugreek, as well as on its medicinal properties, phytochemical and nutrient contents, complies with the results of pre-clinical studies conducted to establish the various medicinal applications of diosgenin.

TL;DR: The effects of methyl jasmonate (MeJA), an elicitor of plant defense mechanisms, on the biosynthesis of diosgenin, a steroidal saponin, were investigated in six fenugreek varieties and may be considered a promising elicitor for diOSgenin production by fenUGreek plants.

TL;DR: The focus of the present review is to galvanize the potential of medicinal importance of this shrub for health care management.

TL;DR: The complete genome sequence of Bacillus paralicheniformis strain KMS 80 is reported, which contains 4,566,040 bp, 4424 protein-coding genes, 8692 promoter sequences, 67 tRNAs, 20 rRNA genes with six copies of 5S rRNAs along with a single copy of 16S–23S rRNA and genome average GC-content of 45.50%.
