Pre-Harvest Stress Inducible Strategies to Stimulate Biosynthesis of Human Health Protective Phenolic Bioactives in Food Plants. Mild stress induction at critical reproductive stage drive carbon flux towards biosynthesis of stress protective metabolites like phenolics through upregulation of pentose phosphate pathway (PPP), shikimate pathway, and phenylpropanoid pathway. Metabolically driven screening also help to find plant foods with optimum phenolic bioactive profile and associated anti-diabetic functionalities. Glucose-6-phopshate dehydrogenase (G6PDH); proline dehydrogenase (PDH); succinate dehydrogenase (SDH); superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), guaiacol peroxidase (GPX).
