Identification of Antioxidant Plant Extracts and Garcinia amplexicaulis Metabolites with Ferroptosis Inhibitor-like Chemical Properties for Alternative Crop Protection

Background

Sustainable strategies to control fungal diseases are urgently needed due to the environmental and human health impacts of conventional fungicides and the rise in fungicide resistance. Ferroptosis modulation, an iron-dependent programmed cell death, could represent an alternative strategy for crop protection, although its potential for fungal disease management remains largely unexplored.
