Wheat bran contains a significant amount of the anti-nutritional factor phytate. This study is the first to explore the effectiveness of activating endogenous phytase and further reducing phytate content through resulting programmed cell death (PCD). Effects of solid–liquid ratio (1:1, 1:2, 1:3, and 1:6), incubation temperature (4, 20, 38, 55, and 70 °C), metal ions (Na+, K+, Ca2+, and Mg2+), gibberellin concentration (0, 5, 50, 500, 2000, and 5000 mg/L), hydrogen peroxide concentration (0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, and 1.0%), and incubation time (30, 80, 180, and 360 min) on activation of endogenous phytase activity and phytate degradation in wheat bran samples are discussed in this study. It was found that when the wheat bran was incubated with distilled water at 55 °C for 80 min, its endogenous phytase activity was dramatically increased 4-fold from 12.96 to 53.54 FTU/g, whereas the phytate content was reduced by about 70% from 45.20 to 13.52 mg/g. By comparison of photomicrographs of raw wheat bran sample and sample incubated with distilled water for 360 min at 55 °C, a conclusion could be drawn that PCD in aleurone cells had occurred.

Compared with the traditional suspension fermentation, immobilised biofilm fermentation has advantages of strong resistance, high yield and continuous fermentation and is conducive to improving the industrial fermentation methods. The formation of a biofilm on correct supports is critical to immobilised fermentation. In this study, Pichia pastoris was used to understand and control the modification of surface properties of supports and cells. Following deletion of gene PAS_chr2-1_0773, in P. pastoris △0773, the cell-surface negative charge density decreased and hydrophobicity improved, which was conducive to adhesion. Therefore, according to the changing trend of cell surface properties, cotton fibre was used with succinic anhydride (SA) to modify the carrier for changing the surface properties for efficient conduction of immobilised fermentation. In the fermentation process, the adhesion between the modified cotton fibre and yeast was better than that between an unmodified cotton fibre and yeast, and the additive amount increased by ∼25 %. The enzyme activity of the △0773-cotton-SA fermentation system reached 302.7 U/mL, which was 39.6 % higher than that of the original fermentation system. Therefore, this study provides a guide for significant improvement of immobilised fermentation of fungi.

Phytate, an anti-nutritional factor in Cinnamomum camphora seed kernel protein isolate (CPI), chelated with minerals and proteins to form complexes that reduced their bioavailability. The study aimed to evaluate the effects of phytase treatment on the structural and functional properties and in vitro digestibility of CPI. The results showed that the degree of phytate degradation was improved with the increase in phytase treatment time. Most of the original secondary structures were retained in the treated CPI samples. The removal of phytate increased the Zeta potential of CPI, and the protein isoelectric point was increased. Low phytate CPI samples showed higher thermal stability and higher Ca 2+ content. In terms of functional properties, foaming capacity was positively correlated with phytate content, whereas foam stability, emulsifying activity index and emulsion stability index were negatively correlated with phytate content. The reduction of phytate content had a positive effect on in vitro gastrointestinal digestion, and the bioavailability of CPI was significantly improved. These results have demonstrated that phytase treatment retained most of the original structure, and improved functional properties and digestibility of the protein isolate from Cinnamomum camphora seed kernel.

Plant subtilases, as hydrolytic enzymes, contribute to certain plant stress response pathways by cleaving precursor proteins into active peptides or through other less well-characterized mechanisms. Phytaspases represent a specific subgroup of subtilases, and their participation in rapid stress responses, particularly to herbivory attacks and drought, is already well established, in contrast to their poorly understood role in long-term responses. This study investigated the involvement of phytaspase NbSBT1.9-2 in the long-term stress responses ofNicotiana benthamiana. Plants were subjected to either mild to severe mechanical wounding or drought stress, followed by the detection of phytaspase activity and gene expression in the leaf tissue. The results revealed a distinct involvement of phytaspase in the wounding response, showing increased activity and upregulated expression correlated with the extent and recurrence of wounding. In contrast, no significant change in phytaspase activity was observed in the leaves under drought, alongside salinity and heat stress conditions. Consequently, phytaspase association with the long-term response to mechanical injury was demonstrated usingN. benthamianaas a model organism.

The potentiality of PGPR and biocontrol bacteria in agriculture is steadily increased as it offers an attractive way to replace the use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides and other supplements. This study aimed to investigate the effects and potential mechanism of inoculation with two Bacillus velezensis strains on the growth and quality improvement of Anoectochilus roxburghii (Wall.) Lindl. (MRH) and Anoectochilus formosanus (Wall.) Lindl. (YYB). The control treatment was non-inoculated (CK) and the coculture treatments were inoculated with Bacillus velezensis D2WM (D2), Bacillus velezensis ZJ-11 (ZJ-11), Bacillus velezensis D2WM and Bacillus velezensis ZJ-11 (D2+ZJ-11). The fresh weight, plant length, amount of active compounds, as well as chlorophyll content were significantly increased under D2, ZJ-11, and D2+ZJ-11 treatments compared with MRH and YYB plants in CK. In particular, D2+ZJ-11 treatment resulted in the greatest growth promotion. In MRH and YYB plants, the fresh weight increased by 82.6 % and 106.6 %, the kinsenoside content increased by 9.33 % and 21.65 % per gram, and the flavonoid content increased by 44.70 % and 21.07 % per gram, respectively. D2WM and ZJ-11 were capable of secreting siderophore, phytase, indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), and zeatin to promote plant nutrient assimilation and growth. Moreover, when D2WM and ZJ-11 were both inoculated with Anoectochilus roxburghii , the rhizosphere soil enzyme activities of urease, phosphatase, and invertase were significantly higher than control, thus helped to provide more nutrients to Anoectochilus . Further, the analysis of microbial community diversity indicated the increase of abundance of beneficial microorganisms, such as nitrogen-fixing bacteria, Basidiomycota and Ascomycota both of which are known to fuel their plant partners with mineral nutrients from the soil. Additionally, the abundance of pathogens belonging to Xanthobacteraceae as well as Cladophialophora and Penicillium were reduced. Hence, coculture with beneficial microorganisms can improve the growth and quality of Anoectochilus plants via promoting nutrient assimilation and regulating rhizosphere microbial community. This technique is of great application value in promoting the efficient cultivation and production of high-quality plant materials.

A new off-on fluorescent probe was successfully synthesized and used to detect ascorbic acid and phytase. The composite material of hydrotalcite and graphene quantum dots were synthesized through citrate intercalated hydrotalcite using hydrothermal carbonization method. The layered structure of hydrotalcite can prevent the aggregation and promote the uniformity of graphene quantum dots. The off-on fluorescent probe detection mechanism is as follows. Fe 3+ ions were firstly added into the solution of the composite material, and the fluorescence was quenched. Then, ascorbic acid was added into the fluorescence probe system, which reduced iron ions and turned on fluorescence to realize the detection of ascorbic acid. In addition, the reaction of phytase and l -ascorbyl-2-phosphate can produce ascorbic acid, further achieving the purpose of phytase detection. The concentration of the analyte and the recovery of the fluorescence intensity show a linear relationship, the linear ranges were 5−300 μmol L −1 and 0.1–4 U mL −1 for ascorbic acid and phytase, respectively. The recoveries of the experiment were 96.3 %–103.1 % and 95.4 %–104.9 %, respectively. The fluorescence method has the advantages of fast, stable, high sensitivity and high selectivity, which has been successfully applied to the determination of ascorbic acid in fruit juice and phytase in feed.

This study investigates enhancing the flavor of rapeseed protein isolate (RPI), a protein-rich substance with an unfavorable taste, through phytase/ethanol treatment. Comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC × GC-TOF-MS) analysis identified 268 volatile compounds in RPI. The study found that this treatment significantly altered the content of these compounds, reducing sourness and enhancing sweetness and fruitiness. The analysis also showed that the treatment notably increased the relative odor activity values (ROAVs) of key aroma compounds, improving RPI's flavor. Sensory evaluation confirmed the positive impact of the treatment, indicating its potential to make RPI a more acceptable ingredient in the food industry.
