Covering: 2015 to up to 2019 This review presents the recent progress towards elucidating
the structures of chiral natural products and applications using vibrational optical activity …

Paradoxically, trichothecenes have both immunosuppressive and immunostimulatory
effects. The underlying mechanisms have not been fully explored. Early studies show that …

Fungi are widely distributed in the terrestrial environment, freshwater, and marine habitat.
Only approximately 100,000 of these have been classified although there are about 5.1 …

Eight new trichothecene derivatives, trichodermarins GN (1–8), and two new cuparene
derivatives, trichocuparins A (9) and B (10), as well as six known trichothecenes (11–16) …

Plant virus diseases, also known as “plant cancers”, cause serious harm to the agriculture of
the world and huge economic losses every year. Antiviral agents are one of the most …

Improving plant resistance against systemic diseases remains a challenging research topic.
In this study, we developed a dual-action pesticide-loaded hydrogel with the capacity to …

Trichothecenes are terpenoid toxins produced by species in 10 fungal genera, including
species of Trichoderma. The trichothecene biosynthetic gene (tri) cluster typically includes …

Control of plant virus diseases largely depends on the induced plant defence achieved by
the external application of synthetic chemical inducers with the ability to modify defence …

Although demonstrated in 1975, vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) finally started to
popularize during this century as a reliable tool to determine the absolute configuration (AC) …

Trichoderma, a well-known fungal genus and opportunistic plant symbiont, is a
quintessential alternative to chemicals with great potential to minimize disease incidence …
