Journal ArticleDOI
Chitosan as a promising natural compound to enhance potential physiological responses in plant: a review
TL;DR: A closer look is taken at the physiological responses of chitosan molecule, which induces mechanisms in plants against various biotic (fungi, bacteria, and insects) and abiotic stresses and helps in formation of barriers that enhances plant's productivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
A vital role of chitosan nanoparticles in improvisation the drought stress tolerance in Catharanthus roseus (L.) through biochemical and gene expression modulation.
Esmat F. Ali,Ahmed M. El-Shehawi,O. H. M. Ibrahim,E. Y. Abdul-Hafeez,M.M. Moussa,F.A.S. Hassan +5 more
TL;DR: This study is the first on using CSNPs to mitigate drought stress of C. roseus by inducing the antioxidant potential and gene expression of alkaloid biosynthesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exogenous priming of chitosan induces upregulation of phytohormones and resistance against cucumber powdery mildew disease is correlated with localized biosynthesis of defense enzymes
Sudisha Jogaiah,Praveen Satapute,Savitha De Britto,Narasimhamurthy Konappa,A. C. Udayashankar +4 more
TL;DR: It is determined that the susceptible cucumber cultivar elicits immunity after perception of priming with chitosan to upregulate phytohormones and synthesize defense-responsive enzymes, thereby induce resistance against powdery mildew disease and strengthen the growth-promotion of cucumber plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chitosan elicitation for increased curcumin production and stimulation of defence response in turmeric (Curcuma longa L.)
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that this eco-friendly compound can be used to stimulate curcumin production in turmeric for industrial endeavours, and points at its potential as a defence elicitor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of foliar application of oligochitosan with different molecular weight on growth promotion and fruit yield enhancement of chili plant
Pham Dinh Dzung,Dang Van Phu,Bui Duy Du,Le Si Ngoc,Nguyen Ngoc Duy,Hoang Dac Hiet,Dang Huu Nghia,Nguyen Tien Thang,Bui Van Le,Nguyen Quoc Hien +9 more
TL;DR: OC with low Mw (2.5 kDa) that can be suitably produced on large scale by gamma Co-60 ray irradiation degradation of chitosan solution is potentially promising to apply as a biostimulant to enhance chili fruit yield significantly.
