Application


  • Non-proteinogenic amino acids mitigate oxidative stress and enhance the resistance of common bean plants against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum.: Demonstrating the utility of ß-Alanine in plant science, this study explores its role in enhancing plant resistance to pathogens by modulating oxidative stress responses. The findings contribute to the development of more resilient agricultural practices (Nehela Y et al., 2024).
