REAGENT FOR DETECTING METHYL SALICYLATE, METHYL SLICYLATE SENSOR, METHOD FOR SENSING METHYL SALICYLATE USING SAME, AND METHOD FOR DETECTING PATHOGEN INFECTION IN PLANT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240010912 titled 'REAGENT FOR DETECTING METHYL SALICYLATE, METHYL SLICYLATE SENSOR, METHOD FOR SENSING METHYL SALICYLATE USING SAME, AND METHOD FOR DETECTING PATHOGEN INFECTION IN PLANT

Simplified Explanation

The present invention is a reagent, sensor, and method for detecting methyl salicylate, a plant hormone released when a plant is infected with a disease. This invention aims to provide an early detection method for pathogen infection in plants, including agricultural crops.

  • Reagent for detecting methyl salicylate
  • Methyl salicylate sensor
  • Method for sensing methyl salicylate using the sensor
  • Early detection method for pathogen infection in plants

Potential Applications

This technology has potential applications in various fields, including:

  • Agriculture: Early detection of pathogen infection in agricultural crops can help prevent the spread of diseases and minimize crop losses.
  • Plant research: Researchers can use this invention to study the response of plants to pathogen infections and develop strategies for disease management.
  • Horticulture: The technology can be used in the cultivation of ornamental plants to ensure their health and prevent the spread of diseases.

Problems Solved

The technology addresses the following problems:

  • Delayed detection: Traditional methods of detecting pathogen infections in plants may not provide early warning signs, leading to the spread of diseases before appropriate measures can be taken.
  • Crop losses: Pathogen infections can cause significant damage to agricultural crops, resulting in economic losses for farmers.
  • Disease management: Early detection of pathogen infections allows for timely intervention and effective disease management strategies.

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include:

  • Early detection: The invention enables the early detection of pathogen infections in plants, allowing for prompt action to prevent the spread of diseases.
  • Increased crop yield: By detecting and managing pathogen infections at an early stage, the technology can help minimize crop losses and increase overall crop yield.
  • Cost-effective: Early detection and intervention can save resources by reducing the need for extensive pesticide use or other disease management measures.


Original Abstract Submitted

the present invention provides a reagent for detecting methyl salicylate, which is a plant hormone released when a plant is infected with a disease, in the cultivation of plants including agricultural crops, a methyl salicylate sensor, and a method for sensing methyl salicylate using the same, thereby providing a method for early detection of pathogen infection in a plant.
