The exploitation of plant resources has long been practiced but on a small scale.
This was attributed to frequent forest fire, fuelwood gathering, logging, hunting, and excessive exploitation of plant-based resources for subsistence and commercial purposes by local communities.
TriForC is an innovative EU-funded collaborative project that has established an integrative pipeline for the exploitation of plant triterpenes for commercialization in agriculture and pharmacology.
They might form a complex network required for the exploitation of plant resources but which might also participate in signaling.
Furthermore, TBDRs might facilitate the exploitation of plant debris generated during disease development, thus resembling bacteria living on dead tissues.
Buccal microwear analysis indicates that Neanderthals from cooler OIS had a more abrasive diet than those from warmer OIS due to the exploitation of plant materials such as roots and tubers [27].
The discovery of such exceptional diversity of nonautonomous structures opened the door to the large-scale in silico exploitation of plant genome sequences to seek novel nonautonomous structures.
White-rot fungi are primarily the major degraders of lignin, a major obstacle for commercial exploitation of plant byproducts to produce bioethanol and other industrially important products.
The importance of indirect effects is currently receiving increased attention as evidence accumulates concerning the exploitation of plant volatiles, especially herbivore-induced plant volatiles (HIPVs), by natural enemies when locating their prey (Mumm and Dicke 2010).
Owing to slow plant growth, over exploitation of wild plants, and ecological destruction of the natural habits in recent years, there is a severe shortage of plant material of this species, while the market demand is ever increasing.
