Chromium toxicity and tolerance mechanisms in plants through cross-talk of secondary messengers: An overview of pathways and mechanisms

Pooja Sharma et al.

Summary: Environmental sources of chromium, such as solid waste, industrial waste, and automotive exhaust emissions, have harmful effects on plants. Excessive exposure to chromium can lead to toxic accumulations in tissues of humans, animals, and plants. In plants, signaling molecules like hydrogen sulfide and nitric oxide play important roles during chromium stress. To mitigate the negative effects of chromium, monitoring of soil-plant systems and identification of secondary messengers in plants are necessary.

Effect of exogenous taurine on pea (Pisum sativum L.) plants under salinity and iron deficiency stress

Muhammad Arslan Ashraf et al.

Summary: Soil salinity and Fe deficiency negatively impact plant growth and survival by altering nutrient availability and water balance. Taurine, a growth regulator, shows potential in mediating plant defense responses, but its effects under different stress conditions remain unclear. This study investigates the effects of taurine on pea plants under salt stress and Fe deficiency.

Melatonin Alleviates Chromium Toxicity in Maize by Modulation of Cell Wall Polysaccharides Biosynthesis, Glutathione Metabolism, and Antioxidant Capacity

Xiaoxiao Yang et al.

Summary: This study investigated the mechanism of melatonin in mitigating chromium toxicity in maize plants using transcriptomic and physiological approaches. The results showed that melatonin treatment significantly reduced the chromium content in leaves, while the chromium content in roots remained unchanged. Further analysis revealed that melatonin alleviated chromium-induced oxidative stress by affecting cell wall polysaccharide biosynthesis, glutathione metabolism, and redox homeostasis. These findings highlight the important role of melatonin in alleviating chromium toxicity in maize.

Hexavalent chromium-reducing plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria are utilized to bio-fortify trivalent chromium in fenugreek by promoting plant development and decreasing the toxicity of hexavalent chromium in the soil

Sumit K. Soni et al.

Summary: This study found that using Cr(VI)-reducing plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (MB) can reduce the toxicity of fenugreek to soil and plants, promoting their growth and yield. In addition, by decreasing the bioavailability of Cr(VI), the uptake and translocation of Cr(III) in fenugreek may be improved, thus enhancing its effectiveness in diabetes treatment.

Nitric oxide and brassinosteroids enhance chromium stress tolerance in Glycine max L. (Merr.) by modulating antioxidative defense and glyoxalase systems

Farwa Basit et al.

Summary: Chromium contamination in agricultural soils poses a significant threat to human and plant health, leading to reduced plant growth and crop yields. This study investigated the potential beneficial effects of 24-epibrassinolide (EBL) and nitric oxide (NO) in mitigating chromium-induced phytotoxicity in soybean seedlings. The combined treatment of EBL and NO showed the greatest alleviation of chromium stress, reducing chromium uptake and translocation, as well as improving water content, light-harvesting pigments, and photosynthetic parameters. Additionally, the hormones enhanced enzymatic and non-enzymatic defense mechanisms, reducing membrane damage and electrolyte leakage, and reducing the accumulation of methylglyoxal, a toxic compound. Further research is needed to validate the effectiveness of EBL and NO in chromium-contaminated soils and assess the cost-benefit ratio and yield losses.
