... Exploration of the mechanisms of cadmium (Cd) activation mediated by the rhizosphere process is important to advance our understanding of Cd accumulation in plants. In this study, two oilseed rape cultivars (L338, L351) with varied Cd accumulation traits were applied and the responses of their rhizosphere ecology to Cd stress were investigated by metabolome and microbiome. The results showed that ...

Abstract:
... This study aimed to examine the impact of sucrose treatment on the growth conditions, dietary nutritional quality, and biological activities of mung bean sprouts. Mung bean seeds were sprouted with solutions containing different sucrose concentrations (10, 20, and 30 g/L). The application of exogenous sucrose significantly decreased the height and fresh weight of mung bean sprouts. However, the su ...
... Mother of FT and TFL1 (MFT) is a member of the phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein (PEBP) family, which plays important roles in seed development, the stress response, and flowering time regulation. In the present study, the MFT homologous gene MiMFT was identified in mango cultivar ‘SiJiMi’. The promoter of MiMFT contained phytohormone-, plant growth-, plant development-, and abiotic stress- ...

... Droplet-based single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-Seq) has moved rapidly from a technology with great potential to a method applied to ever-broader questions. The detailed information that scRNA-Seq offers has proven incredibly powerful in resolving cell responses to developmental and environmental cues. However, to maximize the potential of this technology, a panoply of upstream, practical points r ...

Abstract:
... Metabolic interactions between auxotrophs and prototrophs in microbial communities are understudied. Yu et al. showed how intracellular as well as intercellular metabolism affects community fitness in the absence and presence of abiotic stress, that is, drugs. ...
abioticstress, etc ; biomass production; ribosomes; stress response; Show all 4 Subjects
Abstract:
... As the centerpiece of the biomass production process, ribosome activity is highly coordinated with environmental cues. Findings revealing ribosome subgroups responsive to adverse conditions suggest this tight coordination may be grounded in the induction of variant ribosome compositions and the differential translation outcomes they might produce. In this perspective, we go through the literature ...

Abstract:
... Soil is considered as a vital natural resource equivalent to air and water which supports growth of the plants and provides habitats to microorganisms. Changes in soil properties, productivity, and, inevitably contamination/stress are the result of urbanisation, industrialization, and long-term use of synthetic fertiliser. Therefore, in the recent scenario, reclamation of contaminated/stressed soi ...

Abstract:
... Globally, to meet the increased food demand due to the rapidly expanding population, overuse of nitrogen-based fertilizers is escalating. Unprecedented use of nitrogen besides polluting the environment, it brings about amplified susceptibility to biotic and abiotic stress. Maize is the predominant crop in rainfed regions of Southern Odisha. Hence, there is a need to optimize the use of nitrogen ba ...

Abstract:
... The literature review considers fundamental and applied aspects of plant genetic engineering related to the use of genes that control the synthesis and catabolism of free proline (Pro). The role of this polyfunctional amino acid in the processes of formation of plant resistance to abiotic and biotic stresses is highlighted. Current data on genes and key enzymes of proline biosynthesis and degradat ...

Abstract:
... Interactions between plants and microbes are shaped by the physical world that surrounds them. In nature, the abiotic environment is complex, and factors such as nutrient and water availability, humidity, wind, carbon dioxide levels, salt, pollutants, and temperature all affect the growth and physiology of plants and microbes as well as their interactions. Much of our mechanistic understanding of ...

Abstract:
... Nicotiana is one of the most important economic crops and model plants; however, its growth is affected by various biotic and abiotic stresses. In this study, 27,142 potential resistance genes were identified in six Nicotiana species, belonging to fourteen gene families and transcription factors related to stress resistance. The results indicate that Nicotiana has a potential abundance resistance ...

Abstract:
... Microalgae are highly adaptable to abiotic stress and produce valuable metabolites, but microalgal commercialization is still difficult because of minimal yields. The application of phytohormone-like small biomolecules is effective in simultaneously improving the productivity of valuable microalgal biomass-derived metabolites and stress tolerance. This represents a significant opportunity for micr ...

Abstract:
... The application of nanoparticles (NPs) has been shown to be a very effective technology for increasing plant yield. Their use in agriculture has been associated with the reduction of fertilization, but their effectiveness depends on the concentrations applied, physiochemical properties, and plant species. Nevertheless, one of the most common reported effects, independently on the type of NPs, is t ...
