Exploring the Therapeutic Potential of Phytohormones: Bridging Plant Immunity and Human HealthBy Neelesh Kumar Maurya, Neeti Kushwaha, Pratibha Arya, Aditi Rikhari, Gayatri Ramachandra
Abstract: This review highlights the multifaceted roles of phytohormones, including salicylic acid, abscisic acid, cytokinins, and brassinosteroids, emphasizing their contributions to plant immunity and potential therapeutic applications in human health. Phytohormones are critical regulators of plant growth, development, and defense, functioning as signaling molecules that activate and coordinate plant responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. Salicylic acid, in particular, is instrumental in systemic acquired resistance (SAR), a defense mechanism that strengthens …

Harnessing Ethylene and Brassinosteroids for Enhanced Agricultural Productivity and Food QualityBy Neelesh Kumar Maurya, Neeti Kushwaha, Pratibha Arya, Gayatri Ramachandra
Abstract: This study provides a comprehensive review of the roles of ethylene and brassinosteroids, two vital hormonal regulators in plants, focusing on their impact on fruit ripening, stress responses, and overall plant growth. Ethylene, a gaseous plant hormone, is recognized as a key regulator in various physiological processes, particularly in the maturation of fruits. Its involvement in the ripening process has profound implications for agricultural practices, as it directly influences the …
