Composition and method for stress mitigation in plants

Номер: US20120295788A1
Автор: Albert Liptay, Jerry H. Stoller, Ronald Salzman
Принадлежит: Stoller Enterprises Inc

A composition and method to mitigate plant autophagy and/or apoptosis of newly developing cells in plants grown under environmentally stressful growing conditions, such as high temperature. Exogenous application of a cytokinin, preferably kinetin, to either the roots or the foliage (i.e., flowers and leaves) of plants has been discovered to overcome, or at least substantially mitigate, autophagy when applied during or just prior to flowering. Experimental results indicate that high temperature-induced autophagy, and subsequent new cell apoptosis, is the result of a deficiency of cytokinin in the plant tissues. The application of low concentrations of potassium together with the cytokinin appears to provide a synergistic effect by amplifying the effect of the cytokinin to lessen autophagy and increase crop productivity.

High Unsaponifiables and Methods of Using the Same

Номер: US20140010770A1
Автор: BROWN James H., Copeland Lee R., Cummings Melanie K., Kleiman Robert, Koritala Sambasivarao
Принадлежит: International Flora Technologies, Ltd.

Materials with high levels of unsaponifiable matter, such as extracts from plants, produce hydrolysates with unique properties. The application of a hydrolysis process to materials, particularly materials with a high level of unsaponifiables (e.g., at least 6 weight percent of the material), produces a product with properties significantly different from those products resulting from the conventional saponification of materials with less than 6 weight percent of unsaponifiables. The hydrolysates of the present invention are substantive, resisting both physical and aqueous-based removal from skin and hair, exhibit a unique surfactant property, and are not foaming agents with water. Hydrolysates according to the present invention may be used to enhance the performance of cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. These hydrolysates can be bioactive agents and alternative natural carrying agents for topical application of materials, particularly for application of materials to the skin or hair, providing a substantive support for the materials carried. 1. A method of preparing a composition for enhancing substantivity of cosmetic and pharmaceutical preparations for topical application to skin , comprising the steps of:(a) saponifying jojoba oil to produce hydrolysates of jojoba oil, wherein the hydrolysates comprise a non-polar unsaponifiable fraction and a polar hydrophilic salt fraction corresponding to the tandem reaction products of saponification of jojoba oil; and(b) combining the hydrolysates of step (a) with a cosmetically or pharmaceutically acceptable diluent.2.

Methods and compositions for controlling termite populations by leveraging newly discovered mechanisms for symbiont- and host mediated anti-fungal defenses in the termite hind-gut. Such methods may include administering a composition to a termite, the composition formulated to promote protist dysbiosis in the gut of the termite, or silencing specific host or symbiont genes by RNA interference, and exposing the termite to a pathogen, where the composition increases the susceptibility of the termite to the pathogen. Compositions are also provided for the treatment of fungal infections, the composition comprising a medically effective amount of recombinant glycosyl hydrolase family 7 cellulase, as well as methods for utilizing the same. 1. A method for controlling termite populations , the method comprising the steps of:administering a composition to a termite, the composition formulated to promote symbiont dysbiosis in a gut of the termite; andexposing the termite to a pathogen;wherein administering the composition increases the susceptibility of the termite to the pathogen.2.
