Title: Growth Regulation through Mycorrhiza and Secondary Metabolites of Lamiaceae Herbs in Horticultural Plants

Abstract:

Arbuscularmycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are known as symbiotic fungi with the effect of promoting host plant growth mainly by enhancing phosphorus uptake through symbiosis. AMF is considered to develop a sustainable ecofriendly strategy to overcome biotic and abiotic stresses in plant production as well as safe agricultural production. On the other hand, antimicrobial and preservative activities of essential oils in Lamiaceaeherbs is well documented mainly for agrifoods. However, the antifungal properties of secondary metabolites except EOs in Lamiaceae herbs on horticultural plant diseases is still unclear. In this study, PCR-SSCP (single-strand conformational polymorphism) analysis of early decline or replant problem in vegetable and medicinal plants, tolerance to several environmental stresses such as diseases and salinity in mycorrhizalplants, histological (passage cells in dimorphic exodermis) and physiological (antioxidative ability etc.) mechanisms on such stress tolerance, and metabolome analysis of secondary metabolites in Lamiacease herbs and their functions were introduced.
