A Salt-Tolerant Strain of Trichoderma longibrachiatum HL167 Is Effective in Alleviating Salt Stress, Promoting Plant Growth, and Managing Fusarium Wilt Disease in Cowpea

Zhen Liu et al.

Summary: In this study, a salt-tolerant strain of Trichoderma longibrachiatum HL167 was isolated and found to have inhibitory effects on Fusarium oxysporum under salt stress. It was also observed that HL167 can penetrate and break the hyphae of F. oxysporum. Furthermore, when applied to cowpea plants, HL167 reduced ROS accumulation, alleviated salt damage, improved K+/Na+ ratio, and effectively colonized cowpea roots, leading to successful prevention and control of cowpea Fusarium wilt.

Exploitation of next generation sequencing technologies for unraveling metabolic pathways in medicinal plants: A concise review

Mehdi Younessi-Hamzekhanlu et al.

Summary: Medicinal plants with high-value and unique active ingredients are of interest in various industries. The synthesis of phytochemicals in these plants involves diverse biosynthetic pathways and key enzymes. By identifying rate limiting enzymes and their encoding genes, bottlenecks in these pathways can be determined and breeding strategies can be developed. Next-generation sequencing methods have greatly advanced the study of medicinal plants, providing data for the development of molecular markers, more accurate analysis, and deeper exploration.

Salt stress resilience in plants mediated through osmolyte accumulation and its crosstalk mechanism with phytohormones

Pooja Singh et al.

Summary: Salinity stress adversely affects plant growth and development, limiting crop productivity. Plants adapt to salt stress by synthesizing, signaling, and regulating osmolytes and phytohormones. Osmolytes stabilize osmotic differences and facilitate protein functioning and stress signaling. Phytohormones play critical roles in plant adaptation to salt stress by regulating osmolyte accumulation and minimizing detrimental effects.

ROS generated from biotic stress: Effects on plants and alleviation by endophytic microbes

Pramod Kumar Sahu et al.

Summary: Aerobic living generates ROS which play important roles in plant response to pathogenic stress. ROS act as signaling molecules at moderate concentrations to suppress pathogens, but excess ROS is detrimental to plants. Plants and endophytic microbes have mechanisms to maintain ROS homeostasis, with endophytes producing antioxidants and inducing plant machinery to scavenge ROS.

Foliar-applied silicon nanoparticles mitigate cadmium stress through physio-chemical changes to improve growth, antioxidant capacity, and essential oil profile of summer savory (Satureja hortensis L.)

Elnaz Farajzadeh Memari-Tabrizi et al.

Summary: The use of nanofertilizers shows promise in increasing plant productivity and reducing environmental pollution. The study demonstrated that moderate cadmium levels can enhance phenolic, flavonoid, and essential oil content in plants, while high cadmium levels lead to decreased growth and increased stress indicators. The application of 1.5-2.25 mM Si-NPs was effective in improving plant growth and essential oil yield under Cd stress.

Sneha Gupta et al.

Summary: Inoculation with fungal endophytes can effectively alleviate the impact of soil salinity on plant growth, especially in sensitive cultivars. Metabolomics analysis showed that inoculation led to changes in sugar content and reduced lipid changes in roots under salt stress. However, the effects of inoculation varied between cultivars depending on their salt tolerance levels.
