Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi mitigate drought stress in citrus by modulating root microenvironment

Hui-Qian Cheng et al.

Summary: This study showed that inoculation with Funneliformis mosseae can improve plant growth and root exudate compositions, increase soil glomalin concentrations, and enhance soil aggregate stability. The mycorrhizal fungi can mitigate drought damage by altering root exudate components and soil protein levels in the rhizosphere.

Phosphorus confers tolerance against manganese toxicity in Prunus persica by reducing oxidative stress and improving chloroplast ultrastructure

Iqra Noor et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates the mitigative role of phosphorus (P) in manganese (Mn) toxicity in peach plants. Phosphorus supplementation reduces Mn accumulation, enhances antioxidant defense mechanisms, alleviates oxidative damage, and improves chloroplast ultrastructure and photosynthetic performance in plants.

Heavy metal and metalloid toxicity in horticultural plants: Tolerance mechanism and remediation strategies

Iqra Noor et al.

Summary: Heavy metals and metalloids are major soil pollutants that limit crop production worldwide. The exposure to these pollutants induces oxidative stress in plants and alters their biochemical and morphological characteristics. Plants have evolved complex physiological and cellular defense strategies to cope with heavy metal toxicity, such as sequestration and transportation of metals, activation of signaling pathways, and detoxification mechanisms. Understanding the toxicity, signaling pathways, and tolerance mechanisms of heavy metals will help in developing new crop varieties and improving phytoremediation.

Genome-wide identification of plasma-membrane intrinsic proteins in pumpkin and functional characterization of CmoPIP1-4 under salinity stress

Hamza Sohail et al.

Summary: This study characterized the PIP gene family and examined the role of CmoPIP1-4 in salt stress tolerance in pumpkin. The researchers found that CmoPIP1-4 plays a crucial role in salt stress tolerance, but overexpression of these genes also resulted in hypersensitivity to salt. These findings suggest the potential of CmoPIP1-4 as a candidate for developing stress-resistant cucurbit crops.

Root Osmotic Adjustment and Stomatal Control of Leaf Gas Exchange are Dependent on Citrus Rootstocks Under Water Deficit

Marcela T. Miranda et al.

Summary: The study revealed that citrus species redistribute water under drought conditions, with Rangpur lime showing a higher water redistribution ability compared to Swingle citrumelo. The root hydraulic redistribution in Rangpur lime was associated with osmotic adjustment in well-watered roots and effective stomatal control of leaf gas exchange.

Different strategies lead to a common outcome: different water-deficit scenarios highlight physiological and biochemical strategies of water-deficit tolerance in diploid versus tetraploid Volkamer lemon

Muhammad Fasih Khalid et al.

Summary: This study found that tetraploid Volkamer lemon rootstock showed stronger physiological, antioxidative defense, and osmotic adjustment responses, as well as greater mineral distribution in leaves and roots under water deficit conditions. Tetraploid plants exhibited higher tolerance to both rapid and slow water deficits, with lower water loss, maintaining photosynthesis and enhancing biochemical defense mechanisms compared to diploids.
