Illustrative operations of Nano Oud Inoculant (NOI)

[Dinh xuan Ba]

Nano Oud Inoculant (NOI) consists of three parts:

Nanoparticles N1 N2 N3 N4, Natural/chemical elicitor and Agarwood inducer

Agarwood inducer usually consists of:

• Liquid fungal culture,
• Glucose or sugar,
• Some extracts: Yeast, Malt, Chitosan,…
• Some acids: formic, malic, acetic,…
• Growth regulators,
• Others: Agar, Bran, potato,…

Agarwood inducer as an exotic attack into plant, in response to this attack plant has mobilized a range of defensive compounds to reduce the threat of injury. Defensive compounds include:

• Phytohormones: Jasmonic acid, Ethylene, Salicylic acid, Abscisic acid,…
• Plant phenolics: Lignin, Lignan, Tannins, Flavanoids, Stilbenes,…
• Enzymes: Peroxidases, Polyphenol oxidases, Lipoxygenases,…
• Defense elicitors: Yeast, Polysaccharides, Chitosan, Glutathione,…
• ……..

In the infection area there are biochemical reactions between some defensive compounds and components of agarwood inducer, agarwood is a pathological end-product of these reactions.

Roles of nanoparticles:

• N1: Catalysis and accelerating biochemical reactions arising in the infection area,
• N2, N3: Supplementing nutritional matters to plant, enlarging the infection area,
• N4: acting as an elicitor in nano-size.

Natural/chemical elicitor: Plant-based elicitor or derived chemical of MeJa./.
