The information in the text is summarized as follows:
In this work, the chem. composition of Rubia tinctorum root hydromethanolic extract was analyzed by GC-MS, and over 50 constituents were identified. The main phytochems. were alizarin-related anthraquinones and flavoring phenol compounds The antifungal activity of this extract, alone and in combination with chitosan oligomers (COS) or with stevioside, was evaluated against the pathogenic taxa Diplodia seriata, Dothiorella viticola and Neofusicoccum parvum, responsible for the so-called Botryosphaeria dieback of grapevine. In vitro mycelial growth inhibition tests showed remarkable activity for the pure extract, with EC50 and EC90 values as low as 66 and 88 μg·mL-1, resp. Nonetheless, enhanced activity was attained upon the formation of conjugate complexes with COS or with stevioside, with synergy factors of up to 5.4 and 3.3, resp., resulting in EC50 and EC90 values as low as 22 and 56 μg·mL-1, resp. The conjugate with the best performance (COS-R. tinctorum extract) was then assayed ex situ on autoclaved grapevine wood against D. seriata, confirming its antifungal behavior on this plant material. Finally, the same conjugate was evaluated in greenhouse assays on grafted grapevine plants artificially inoculated with the three aforementioned fungal species, resulting in a significant reduction in the infection rate in all cases. This natural antifungal compound represents a promising alternative for developing sustainable control methods against grapevine trunk diseases. In addition to this study using 3-Hydroxydihydrofuran-2(3H)-one, there are many other studies that have used 3-Hydroxydihydrofuran-2(3H)-one(cas: 19444-84-9Product Details of 19444-84-9) was used in this study.
3-Hydroxydihydrofuran-2(3H)-one(cas: 19444-84-9) is a 5-membered cyclic ester. It was obtained via tin-conversion of biomass-derived 1,3-dihydroxyacetone (DHA) and formaldehyde. And it may be employed as starting reagent in the synthesis of series of seco-pseudonucleoside synthons via aminolysis.Product Details of 19444-84-9
