Toxicity of coumarins in plant defense against pathogens
Coumarins are a specific type of secondary metabolite that can be found in many plants. These compounds are predominantly produced through the phenylpropanoid pathway. Coumarins have been proven to possess a range of biological activities, including antimicrobial properties and antioxidant functions that aid in plant disease resistance response. The antimicrobial effect of coumarins is achieved through various mechanisms. They disrupt the cell membranes of pathogens, inhibit enzymatic activity, and hinder nucleic acid synthesis. Additionally, coumarins stimulate plant defense responses by triggering the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and activating the expression of immunity-related genes and signaling pathways such as the salicylic acid-dependent pathway. Due to their crucial role in defense mechanisms, coumarins can be effectively used in sustainable agriculture practices that emphasize environmentally friendly integrated pest management strategies. By providing a comprehensive overview of the biosynthetic pathways, mode of action, and application of coumarins in plant defense, this review aims to highlight the potential importance of coumarins in developing safe and sustainable crop protection strategies.
期刊介绍:
Toxicon has an open access mirror Toxicon: X, sharing the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review. An introductory offer Toxicon: X - full waiver of the Open Access fee.
Toxicon''s "aims and scope" are to publish:
-articles containing the results of original research on problems related to toxins derived from animals, plants and microorganisms
-papers on novel findings related to the chemical, pharmacological, toxicological, and immunological properties of natural toxins
-molecular biological studies of toxins and other genes from poisonous and venomous organisms that advance understanding of the role or function of toxins
-clinical observations on poisoning and envenoming where a new therapeutic principle has been proposed or a decidedly superior clinical result has been obtained.
-material on the use of toxins as tools in studying biological processes and material on subjects related to venom and antivenom problems.
-articles on the translational application of toxins, for example as drugs and insecticides
-epidemiological studies on envenoming or poisoning, so long as they highlight a previously unrecognised medical problem or provide insight into the prevention or medical treatment of envenoming or poisoning. Retrospective surveys of hospital records, especially those lacking species identification, will not be considered for publication. Properly designed prospective community-based surveys are strongly encouraged.
-articles describing well-known activities of venoms, such as antibacterial, anticancer, and analgesic activities of arachnid venoms, without any attempt to define the mechanism of action or purify the active component, will not be considered for publication in Toxicon.
-review articles on problems related to toxinology.
To encourage the exchange of ideas, sections of the journal may be devoted to Short Communications, Letters to the Editor and activities of the affiliated societies.
