Total phenolic, flavonoid and tannin contents and antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of organic extracts of shoots of the plant Limonium delicatulum (2014, background): “These include some vitamins, terpenoids, carotenoids, essential oils and phenolic compounds [6], which are important in plants”
Stress and defense responses in plant secondary metabolites production (2019, background): “Competition with microbes and other essential mineral nutrients, defensive pathogens and herbivores attack to plants may induce SM pathways in plant cells [21, 50].”
Secondary metabolites and their multidimensional prospective in plant life (2017, unknown): “…(such as lignans, phenolic acid, tannins, coumarins, lignins, stilbenes and flavonoids), nitrogen containing compounds (such as non-protein amino acids, cyanogenic glucosides and alkaloids) and sulphure containing compounds (such as GSH, GSL, phytoalexins, thionins, defensins and lectins) [13] .”
