“…In addition, the level of antifungal activity of S-4 was further evaluated by in vivo experiments and corroborated by SEM and cellular leakage. [24] It deserves further experimentation in the control of harmful fungi. Its antimicrobial level has the potential to replace chemical pesticides or be used synergistically with chemical pesticides.…”

Garlic oil has a wide range of biological activities, and its broad‐spectrum activity against phytopathogenic fungi still has the potential to be explored. In this study, enzymatic treatment of garlic resulted in an increase of approximately 50 % in the yield of essential oil, a feasible GC‐MS analytical program for garlic oil was provided. Vacuum fractionation of the volatile oil and determination of its inhibitory activity against 10 fungi demonstrated that garlic oil has good antifungal activity. The antifungal activity levels were ranked as diallyl trisulfide (S‐3)>diallyl disulfide (S‐2)>diallyl monosulfide (S‐1), with an EC50 value of S‐3 against Botrytis cinerea reached 8.16 mg/L. Following the structural modification of compound S‐3, a series of derivatives, including compounds S‐4~7, were synthesized and screened for their antifungal activity. The findings unequivocally demonstrated that the compound dimethyl trisulfide (S‐4) exhibited exceptional antifungal activity. The EC50 of S‐4 against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum reached 6.83 mg/L. SEM, In vivo experiments, and changes in mycelial nucleic acids, soluble proteins and soluble sugar leakage further confirmed its antifungal activity. The study indicated that the trisulfide bond structure was the key to good antifungal activity, which can be developed into a new type of green plant‐derived fungicide for plant protection.

“…T-resveratrol can be converted into other stilbenes such as viniferins (through oxidation), pterostilbene (via methylation), or piceid (through glycosylation) [ 1 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 ]. T-resveratrol also offers several health benefits to humans, including preventing cardiovascular diseases and potentially protecting against certain cancers through antioxidant activity, apoptotic induction, and immune system boosting [ 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 ]. As a result, many research groups have shown great interest in t -resveratrol.…”

Stilbenes are a group of plant phenolic secondary metabolites, with trans-resveratrol (3,5,4′-trihydroxy-trans-stilbene) being recognized as the most prominent and studied member. Stilbenes have a great potential for use in agriculture and medicine, as they have significant activities against plant pathogens and have valuable beneficial effects on human health. In this study, we analyzed the effects of direct application of stilbenes, stilbene precursor, and stilbene-rich extract solutions to the plant foliar surface for increasing the resistance of Arabidopsis thaliana to various abiotic stresses (heat, cold, drought, and soil salinity). Exogenous treatment of A. thaliana with stilbenes (trans-resveratrol, piceid, and spruce bark extract) and phenolic precursor (p-coumaric acid or CA) during germination resulted in considerable growth retardation of A. thaliana plants: a strong delay in the root and stem length of 1-week-old seedlings (in 1.3–4.5 fold) and rosette diameter of 1-month-old plants (in 1.2–1.8 fold), while the 2-month-old treated plants were not significantly different in size from the control. Plant treatments with stilbenes and CA increased the resistance of A. thaliana to heat and, to a lesser extent, to soil salinity (only t-resveratrol and spruce extract) to drought (only CA), while cold resistance was not affected. Plant treatments with stilbenes and CA resulted in a significant increase in plant resistance and survival rates under heat, with plants showing 1.5–2.3 times higher survival rates compared to untreated plants. Thus, exogenous stilbenes and a CA are able to improve plant survival under certain abiotic stresses via specific activation of the genes involved in the biosynthesis of auxins, gibberellins, abscisic acid, and some stress-related genes. The present work provides new insights into the application of stilbenes to improve plant stress tolerance.
