The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has
underscored the lack of approved drugs against acute viral
diseases. Plants are considered inexhaustible sources of drugs
for several diseases and clinical conditions, but plant-derived
compounds have seen little success in the field of antivirals.
Here, we present the case for the use of compounds from vascular
plants, including alkaloids, flavonoids, polyphenols,
and tannins, as antivirals, particularly for the treatment of
COVID-19. We review current evidence for the use of these
phytochemicals against SARS-CoV-2 infection and present
their potential targets in the SARS-CoV-2 replication cycle.

The use of heat- and alkali-resistant bacteria is essential for
the biological repair of damaged concrete. Lysinibacillus boronitolerans
YS11 was isolated from the rhizosphere of Miscanthus
sacchariflorus. The increased pH in the urea-minus
condition during the growth of the YS11 strain promoted calcium
carbonate (CaCO3) formation. To identify the optimum
medium that promoted the growth of the YS11 strain, a Plackett-
Burman design was conducted for the screening process.
Consequently, malt powder, rice bran, (NH4)2SO4, and corn
syrup were chosen to enhance YS11 growth. The optimization
of these four useful factors was carried out using a central
composite design. To obtain higher survivability in mortar,
the sporulation process is essential, and additional factors
such as Mn2+, Fe2+, and Ca2+ were found to contribute
to sporulation. A mixture of L. boronitolerans YS11 spore
powder, cement, paste, sand, yeast extract, calcium lactate,
and water showed a healing effect on a 0.3 mm mortar crack
in 7 days. Furthermore, calcium carbonate precipitation was
observed over the crack surface. Thus, we confirmed that mortar
treated with YS11 spore powder was effective in healing
micro-cracks in concrete.

Although microbially induced calcium carbonate precipita-tion (MICP) through ureolysis has been widely studied in en-vironmental engineering fields, urea utilization might cause environmental problems as a result of ammonia and nitrate production. In this study, many non-ureolytic calcium car-bonate-precipitating bacteria that induced an alkaline envi-ronment were isolated from the rhizosphere of Miscanthus sacchariflorus near an artificial stream and their ability to pre-cipitate calcium carbonate minerals with the absence of urea was investigated. MICP was observed using a phase-contrast microscope and ion-selective electrode. Only Lysinibacillus sp. YS11 showed MICP in aerobic conditions. Energy disper-sive X-ray spectrometry and X-ray diffraction confirmed the presence of calcium carbonate. Field emission scanning elec-tron microscopy analysis indicated the formation of morpho-logically distinct minerals around cells under these condi-tions. Monitoring of bacterial growth, pH changes, and Ca2+ concentrations under aerobic, hypoxia, and anaerobic con-ditions suggested that strain YS11 could induce alkaline con-ditions up to a pH of 8.9 and utilize 95% of free Ca2+ only under aerobic conditions. Unusual Ca2+ binding and its re-lease from cells were observed under hypoxia conditions. Bio-film and extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) formation were enhanced during MICP. Strain YS11 has resistance at high pH and in high salt concentrations, as well as its spore- forming ability, which supports its potential application for self-healing concrete.
