In spinach, cotyledons and the first true leaves contain more PEs than the later leaves.
“In spinach, cotyledons and the first true leaves contain more PEs than the later leaves [21,22].”

Invertebrates cannot synthesize ECs; rather, they consume phytosterols and convert them into ECs.
“Additionally, invertebrates cannot synthesize ECs; rather, they consume phytosterols and convert them into ECs.”

Plants produce ECs via mevalonic acid (MVA) and cholesterol.
“On the other hand, plants produce ECs via mevalonic acid (MVA) and cholesterol [21,22,115,116].”

In Spinacia oleracea roots, PE production increases during pathogenic attack.
“In Spinacia oleracea roots, it has been found that PE production increases during pathogenic attack [21,22,149,150,151].”

PE biosynthesis increases during mechanical wounding or pathogenic attack.
“PEs provide plants tolerance against several soil nematodes and insects; thus, PE biosynthesis increases during mechanical wounding or pathogenic attack.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
