Abstract
Essential oils (EOs) have been investigated for their effectiveness against fungal fruit pathogens. The present review article summarises the EOs that inhibit Alternaria alternata and Colletotrichum gloeosporioides in the pre- and post-harvest stages of fruits. Thirty-nine scientific papers focusing on the extraction conditions and the antifungal activity of EOs were selected. The retrieved studies came mainly from China and Brazil. Hydrodistillation has been identified as the most used extractive method. The yields and chemical profiles were variable among the species. The in vitro studies were larger than the in vivo studies. The application of EOs reduced the incidence of fungal diseases in tomatoes (Lycopersicon esculentum), papaya (Carica papaya) and mango (Mangifera indica). EOs resulted as a potential ecological alternative for treating fungal diseases in fruits requiring further investigation.

Abstract
This study explored the composition of essential oil (EO) and the first phytotoxic screening of EO obtained from the stems and leaves of Mentha vagans Boriss (MVEO) via hydro-distillation technique. The EO ingredients were detected through Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS). GC-MS analysis revealed that MVEO contained 49 constituents, constituting 93.95 % of the total oil. Among MVEO constituents, dihydrocarvone was observed as the dominant constituent (24.14 %), followed by D-carvone (16.28 %) and piperitone (18.14 %). The phytotoxic effects of MVEO and its dominant compounds were examined against Amaranthus retroflexus, Lolium perenne, and Poa annua. Significant inhibition was observed by MVEO in comparison with the major constituents and their mixture, suppressing the seedling growth of tested species at the lowest dosage (0.01 mg/mL); in general, seedling growth of all tested species was markedly inhibited when applied concentration of the EO and its constituents reached 0.05 mg/mL. Our results also indicated that constituents other than the dominant compounds of MVEO possessed considerable phytotoxic effects because the EO's activity was stronger than its major constituents and their mixture. Thus, additional studies are required to investigate MVEO and its constituents and commercialize them as environment-friendly bio-herbicides.

Bernard A, Cha S, Shin H, Lee D, Hahn JS. Efficient production of (S)-limonene and geraniol in Saccharomyces cerevisiae through the utilization of an Erg20 mutant with enhanced GPP accumulation capability. Metab Eng 2024; 83:183-192. [PMID: 38631459 DOI: 10.1016/j.ymben.2024.04.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2023] [Revised: 04/12/2024] [Accepted: 04/14/2024] [Indexed: 04/19/2024]
Abstract
Monoterpenes and monoterpenoids such as (S)-limonene and geraniol are valuable chemicals with a wide range of applications, including cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and biofuels. Saccharomyces cerevisiae has proven to be an effective host to produce various terpenes and terpenoids. (S)-limonene and geraniol are produced from geranyl pyrophosphate (GPP) through the enzymatic actions of limonene synthase (LS) and geraniol synthase (GES), respectively. However, a major hurdle in their production arises from the dual functionality of the Erg20, a farnesyl pyrophosphate (FPP) synthase, responsible for generating GPP. Erg20 not only synthesizes GPP by condensing isopentenyl pyrophosphate (IPP) with dimethylallyl pyrophosphate but also catalyzes further condensation of IPP with GPP to produce FPP. In this study, we have tackled this issue by harnessing previously developed Erg20 mutants, Erg20K197G (Erg20G) and Erg20F96W, N127W (Erg20WW), which enhance GPP accumulation. Through a combination of these mutants, we generated a novel Erg20WWG mutant with over four times higher GPP accumulating capability than Erg20WW, as observed through geraniol production levels. The Erg20WWG mutant was fused to the LS from Mentha spicata or the GES from Catharanthus roseus for efficient conversion of GPP to (S)-limonene and geraniol, respectively. Further improvements were achieved by localizing the entire mevalonate pathway and the Erg20WWG-fused enzymes in peroxisomes, while simultaneously downregulating the essential ERG20 gene using the glucose-sensing HXT1 promoter. In the case of (S)-limonene production, additional Erg20WWG-LS was expressed in the cytosol. As a result, the final strains produced 1063 mg/L of (S)-limonene and 1234 mg/L of geraniol by fed-batch biphasic fermentations with ethanol feeding. The newly identified Erg20WWG mutant opens doors for the efficient production of various other GPP-derived chemicals including monoterpene derivatives and cannabinoids.

FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2023; 14:1132555. [PMID: 37457343 PMCID: PMC10339834 DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2023.1132555] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2022] [Accepted: 05/22/2023] [Indexed: 07/18/2023]
Abstract
Plants are the sources of many bioactive secondary metabolites which are present in plant organs including leaves, stems, roots, and flowers. Although they provide advantages to the plants in many cases, they are not necessary for metabolisms related to growth, development, and reproduction. They are specific to plant species and are precursor substances, which can be modified for generations of various compounds in different plant species. Secondary metabolites are used in many industries, including dye, food processing and cosmetic industries, and in agricultural control as well as being used as pharmaceutical raw materials by humans. For this reason, the demand is high; therefore, they are needed to be obtained in large volumes and the large productions can be achieved using biotechnological methods in addition to production, being done with classical methods. For this, plant biotechnology can be put in action through using different methods. The most important of these methods include tissue culture and gene transfer. The genetically modified plants are agriculturally more productive and are commercially more effective and are valuable tools for industrial and medical purposes as well as being the sources of many secondary metabolites of therapeutic importance. With plant tissue culture applications, which are also the first step in obtaining transgenic plants with having desirable characteristics, it is possible to produce specific secondary metabolites in large-scale through using whole plants or using specific tissues of these plants in laboratory conditions. Currently, many studies are going on this subject, and some of them receiving attention are found to be taken place in plant biotechnology and having promising applications. In this work, particularly benefits of secondary metabolites, and their productions through tissue culture-based biotechnological applications are discussed using literature with presence of current studies.

Biotransformation of Hops-Derived Compounds in Beer – A Review. ACTA UNIVERSITATIS CIBINIENSIS. SERIES E: FOOD TECHNOLOGY 2022.

Abstract
Abstract
Besides providing bitterness to beer, hops also impart a whole range of aromas, such as herbal, spice, floral, citrus, fruity and pine to this beverage. Although hops are usually added in relatively small amounts, they have a significant impact on the sensory characteristics of the product. Raw hop aroma significantly differs from the aroma resulting from its addition to the beer. The final aroma of the beer arises from substances in the malt, hops, other additives, and yeast metabolism. The biochemical transformation of hop compounds by yeast has become more and more popular in recent years. Knowledge of this process may allow more precise control over the final sensory characteristics of the beverage. The article describes the chemical composition of hops and discusses the influence of the hopping regime on the concentration of volatile compounds in the finished product. Moreover, the article describes the biotransformation of hop-derived compounds by traditionally used Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast, as well as less commonly used non-Saccharomyces yeast. The paper outlines the current state of knowledge on biotransformation of hop-derived hydrocarbons, terpenoids, esters, sulfur compounds and glycosidically bound aroma precursors.
