“…Although the application of fertilizers did not interfere with the production of mycorrhizal structures (Table ), it was verified that inoculated plants generally accumulated more biomolecules (Tables and ), in agreement with reports by Loit et al and Santana et al This advantage has been reported in some studies, and it is believed that an increase in the production of signaling molecules, activation of key enzymes of the metabolic pathways, modulation in the gene expression of important enzymes of the anabolic routes, hormonal alterations, and the plant's defense response may be competing for the observed optimization (Tables and ).…”

“…The production of vitexin in the inoculated plants grown in soil was 59.4 mg per gram of plant, a value much higher than that seen by Oliveira et al in leaves of P. alata seedlings (3.59 mg per plant). This implies that the technology employing selected AMF may serve as an alternative to creating phytomass with expressive amounts of vitexin.…”

“…However, there are few reports on the joint action of organic fertilizers and AMF to increase the production of biomolecules with phytopharmaceutical importance. Oliveira et al reported an increase in the production of total flavonoids, vitexin‐2‐ O‐ rhamnoside, and orientin in Passiflora alata when inoculated with Gigaspora albida and grown in vermicompost. On the other hand, in a study with another fruit plant, Fragaria ananassa (strawberry), Parada et al reported that anthocyanin values were not affected by the joint action of mycorrhization and organic or chemical fertilizers.…”

BACKGROUND: Low-cost organic fertilizers, such as coconut powder and vermicompost, and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) may benefit the Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa plant. However, it has not been established whether the joint application of these inputs may increase the production of vitexin and other molecules associated with the phytotherapeutic properties of this plant. Here, we tested the hypothesis that the application of AMF and organic fertilizers maximizes the production of bioactive compounds in leaves of P. edulis. RESULTS: The inoculation of Acaulospora longula into P. edulis grown in fertilization-free soil promoted an increase of 86% in the concentration of leaf vitexin, 10.29% in the concentration of total phenols, and 13.78% in the concentration of total tannins in relation to the AMF-free control, rendering soil fertilization superfluous.CONCLUSION: The application of A. longula increases the production of foliar biomolecules, such as vitexin, in yellow passion fruit plants. Thus, the addition of coconut powder and vermicompost to the substrate composition is not necessary, leading to the commercialized production of phytomass in the herbal medicines industry.

“…Other studies have reported that growth was benefited at a shorter time of transplanting to the field and tolerance to drought stress in seedlings of yellow passionfruit inoculated with AMF . However, the efficiency of these fungi in the production of biomolecules is yet to be defined; in contrast, the application of AMF has been reported to have benefited an increase of phenolic compounds and vitexin‐2‐ O ‐ramnoside in P. alata . However, such a benefit has yet to be studied in P. edulis f. flavicarpa , a source of passionfruit biomass in Brazil to produce this herbal medicine group.…”

Production of biomolecules of interest to the anxiolytic herbal medicine industry in yellow passionfruit leaves (Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa) promoted by mycorrhizal inoculation

et al. 2019

BACKGROUND Our contemporary way of life has led us to consume high amounts of chemically‐synthesized allopathic medicinal products and anxiolytics to which a viable alternative is the use of Passiflora‐based herbal medicines with composition containing vitexin, a flavonoid with anxiolytic and antidepressant properties. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are known for enhancing the production of biomolecules, however, increase production of phytochemistry in Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa has not been reported in the literature. Our aim was to select AMF to benefit the production of vitexin in leaves of P. edulis by inoculating seedlings in the region of roots with Acaulospora longula, Claroideoglomus etunicatum and Gigaspora albida. RESULTS The inoculation increased the concentration of vitexin in 63.64% and the inoculation with A. longula also increased the content of flavonoids and total saponins in the leaves in relation to the control. CONCLUSION The increase in the production of vitexin in the leaf in response to the inoculation with AMF, with emphasis to A. longula, interests the pharmaceutical industry and can generate profit to the production of yellow passionfruit‐based anxiolytic herbal medicine. © 2019 Society of Chemical Industry

Background: Passiflora cincinnata Mast. is used in family farming due to its easy cultivation and pathogens resistance. Moreover, in its leaves are produced secondary metabolites that confer anxiolytic properties to the species. However, these biomolecules are produced at low concentrations, making it necessary to search for alternatives that increase the production of these compounds, such as the application of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and coconut coir dust in the cultivation substrate. This study aimed to select the efficient AMF and coir dust proportion in enhancing the production of foliar metabolites in P. cincinnata.Results: Plants cultivated in substrates with one-third coconut coir dust and inoculated with Acaulospora longula Spain and N.C. Schenck concentrated more total phenols (91.39%), total tannins (147.47%), and total saponins (151.41%) in comparison to noninoculated seedlings. Furthermore, seedlings inoculated with A. longula and grown without coconut coir dust produced more flavonoids than the other treatments. Conclusion:The combined application of AMF and one-third of coir dust is an option to optimize the production of metabolites of interest in P. cincinnata, constituting an alternative for phytomass supply to the anxiolytic herbal medicines industries based on Passiflora.
