The central aim in ecometabolomics and chemical ecology is to pinpoint chemical features that explain molecular functioning. The greatest challenge is the identification of compounds due to the lack of constitutive reference spectra, the large number of completely unknown compounds, and bioinform...
AIM: We aimed to study the impact of water deficit on the concentration of key flavour and phenolic secondary metabolites of wines.
METHODS AND RESULTS: A drought-stress field trial was conducted on Vitis vinifera cv. Merlot and Tocai Friulano for two seaso...
Rhododendron species have the potential to be rich in secondary metabolites with pharmaceutical or industrial value. However, there is a lack of in comprehensive metabolome studies at the genome level, particularly for unique and rare species like R. bailiense which exclusively grows in karst env...
Fusarium verticillioides (F. verticillioides) is an important fungal pathogen known to infect a variety of economically critical crops, especially maize, causing substantial yield reductions and economic losses worldwide. In addition to its direct damage to agricultural productivity, F. verticill...
This study focuses on the Helan Mountain East Foothills region of Ningxia, a typical continental climate wine-growing area, with Cabernet Sauvignon grapes as the subject. It combines trime-thylsilyl derivatization -Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (TMS-GC-MS) technology and the independently ...
