Abstract
The plants of the genus Salacia L. are the storehouse of several bioactive compounds, and are involved in treating human diseases and disorders. Hitherto, a number of reports have been published on in vitro biotechnology as well as microbial involvement in the improvement of Salacia spp. The present review provides comprehensive insights into biotechnological interventions such as tissue culture for plant propagation, in vitro cultures, and endophytic microbes for up-scaling the secondary metabolites and biological potential of Salacia spp. Other biotechnological interventions such as molecular markers and bio-nanomaterials for up-grading the prospective of Salacia spp. are also considered. The in vitro biotechnology of Salacia spp. is largely focused on plant regeneration, callus culture, cell suspension culture, somatic embryogenesis, and subsequent ex vitro establishment of the in vitro-raised plantlets. The compiled information on tissue cultural strategies, involvement of endophytes, molecular markers, and nanomaterials will assist the advanced research related to in vitro manipulation, domestication, and commercial cultivation of elite clones of Salacia spp. Moreover, the genetic diversity and other molecular-marker based assessments will aid in designing conservation policies as well as support upgrading and breeding initiatives for Salacia spp. KEY POINTS: • Salacia spp. plays a multifaceted role in human health and disease management. • Critical and updated assessment of tissue culture, endophytic microbes, metabolites, molecular markers, and bio-nanomaterials of Salacia spp. • Key shortcomings and future research directions for Salacia biotechnology.

DNA Barcoding, Phylogenetic Analysis and Secondary Structure Predictions of Nepenthes ampullaria, Nepenthes gracilis and Nepenthes rafflesiana. Genes (Basel) 2023; 14:genes14030697. [PMID: 36980969 PMCID: PMC10048361 DOI: 10.3390/genes14030697] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2023] [Revised: 03/02/2023] [Accepted: 03/09/2023] [Indexed: 03/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Nepentheceae, the most prominent carnivorous family in the Caryophyllales order, comprises the Nepenthes genus, which has modified leaf trap characteristics. Although most Nepenthes species have unique morphologies, their vegetative stages are identical, making identification based on morphology difficult. DNA barcoding is seen as a potential tool for plant identification, with small DNA segments amplified for species identification. In this study, three barcode loci; ribulose-bisphosphate carboxylase (rbcL), intergenic spacer 1 (ITS1) and intergenic spacer 2 (ITS2) and the usefulness of the ITS1 and ITS2 secondary structure for the molecular identification of Nepenthes species were investigated. An analysis of barcodes was conducted using BLASTn, pairwise genetic distance and diversity, followed by secondary structure prediction. The findings reveal that PCR and sequencing were both 100% successful. The present study showed the successful amplification of all targeted DNA barcodes at different sizes. Among the three barcodes, rbcL was the least efficient as a DNA barcode compared to ITS1 and ITS2. The ITS1 nucleotide analysis revealed that the ITS1 barcode had more variations compared to ITS2. The mean genetic distance (K2P) between them was higher for interspecies compared to intraspecies. The results showed that the DNA barcoding gap existed among Nepenthes species, and differences in the secondary structure distinguish the Nepenthes. The secondary structure generated in this study was found to successfully discriminate between the Nepenthes species, leading to enhanced resolutions.

Lu Q, Wang S, Yin Z, Chen Q, He X, Wang Q, Hu Q, Gu Y, Tang H, Xie H. Identification of Veratrum Species in Pimacao Based on ITS2 Sequences and Steroidal Alkaloids by a Pseudo-Targeted Metabolomics Method. FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2022; 13:831562. [PMID: 35481147 PMCID: PMC9037537 DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2022.831562] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2021] [Accepted: 03/04/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Pimacao is a traditional Chinese folk medicine and is the main component of the famous Chinese herbal remedy "Yunnan Baiyao" for its significant analgesic activity in the treatment of wounds. Due to increases in consumption, its wild population is now difficult to find, and adulterant from the same genus has occurred. However, this is challenging to distinguish the species of Veratrum in Pimacao using dried roots and rhizomes or medicinal powder. ITS2 sequences and steroidal alkaloids by the non-targeted and pseudo-targeted metabolomics methods were taken advantage of establishing an effective identification method. Based on the ITS2 sequence, metabolite profiling of steroidal alkaloids and morphological characteristics, the classification of two distinct subspecies in V. mengzeanum has been reinforced. In addition, the new subspecies V. mengzeanum subsp. phuwae was collected in China for the first time. The ITS2 sequence could be used in the identification of V. taliense, V. mengtzeanum, V. stenophyllum, and V. nigrum, but is insufficient for intraspecific identification. Simultaneously, 147 variables were labeled by non-targeted analysis accomplished utilizing an ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography electrospray ionization orbitrap tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-ESI-QE-Orbitrap-MS) system consisting of an Orbitrap QE HF-X. Followed by a pseudo-targeted analysis method developed for the Qtrap 6500-plus mass spectrometry system coupled with an ESI source, 29 labeled steroidal alkaloids detected by the MRM mode could distinguish between four species. Notably, 25 labeled steroidal alkaloids could distinguish between three closely related species. These have the potential to be used as markers for identification. Furthermore, there were several variables with statistical differences between two subspecies of V. mengtzeanum and populations of V. taliense, V. mengtzeanum, and V. stenophyllum.
