β, β-Trehalose
This trehalose analog, β, β-Trehalose, is a research tool used to study plant parasitism, specifically supporting the in vitro growth of Cuscuta (dodder) shoot tips. It serves as a substrate cleavable by nonspecific β-glucosidases, facilitating investigations into carbohydrate metabolism and haustorial development in parasitic plants.
