Inoculation with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi does not improve pasture legume tolerance to PFAS-contaminated soil, despite increasing plant biomass.
Combined application of melatonin and salicylic acid enhances drought tolerance in pepper by up to the greatest extent among treatments, improving growth and reducing oxidative damage.
Genotype Triticum aestivum shows differential responses to late-spring frost, with Roshan being more sensitive and Superhead more adaptable, affecting yield traits.
Most components of the tomato MAPK cascade are regulated mainly at the translational level under cold stress, with mRNA levels remaining stable.
Exogenous meta-topolin enhances cold stress tolerance in pepper seedlings by increasing antioxidant activity and reducing cellular damage, especially in the cold-tolerant cultivar Çoban F1.
Constitutive elevation of cAMP in Arabidopsis thaliana increases plant height by 13-14%, seed weight by 12-17%, and seed yield by 36-41%, enhancing growth and productivity.
Overexpression of ZmLACS9 enhances maize salt stress tolerance by improving chloroplast lipid metabolism and photosynthetic performance.
Citric acid seed priming enhances antioxidant activity and metabolic responses, reducing nickel stress effects in Abelmoschus esculentus L. by 201.67% seed vigor.
Suaeda salsa achieves optimal growth at 200 mM NaCl and tolerates salinity up to 400 mM NaCl through coordinated salt-tolerance responses.
Twenty-seven CHS genes were identified across five yellowhorn genomes, with four core pangenes and two dispensable genes, revealing their evolutionary conservation and variation.
Radhouane, a Tunisian alfalfa accession, exhibits 250% higher phenolic content and 86% greater antioxidant capacity than Kettana 1 under combined water and nutrient stress.
Coordination of cyclic electron flow and alternative electron sinks protects photosystem I in maize under fluctuating light during drought and heat stress, preventing photoinhibition.
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are potentially present in most trace metal- and Al-hyperaccumulating plant genera in metalliferous and Al-rich soils, but direct confirmation under natural conditions is limited.
Fulvic acid and hydrogen sulfide together reduce chromium accumulation by up to 71.24% in tobacco seedlings under Cr stress.
Combined exposure to difenoconazole and salinity stress causes significant growth reduction and severe pigment degradation in tomato seedlings, with chlorophyll b decreasing by 84%.
Jasmonic acid signaling via the COI1-JAZs-MYCs complex regulates seed germination, root elongation, and leaf senescence in plants.
