Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is a highly productive crop economically significant for food, cosmetics, and biofuels. Abiotic stresses such as low water availability, salt accumulation, high temperatures severely impact oil growth, physiology, yield by restricting flux among soil, plants, the environment. While drought stress’s physiological biochemical effects on have been extensively studied, molecular mechanisms underlying stress tolerance remain unclear. Under deficit conditions, this study investigates two commercial E. cultivars, IRHO 7001 2501. Water adversely affected physiology of both with 2501 being more impacted. After several days deficit, there was 40% reduction in photosynthetic rate (A) 58% decrease Further into 75% A 91% drop Both cultivars reacted to conditions closing stomata reducing transpiration rate. Despite these differences, no variations were observed between stomatal conductance, transpiration, or instantaneous leaf-level use efficiency. This indicates that tolerant than differential gene expression network analysis conducted elucidate responses cultivars. The DESeq2 algorithm identified 502 differentially expressed genes (DEGs). coexpression comprised 274 DEGs 46 predicted HUB genes, whereas 2501’s included 249 3 genes. RT-qPCR validation 15 confirmed RNA-Seq data. transcriptomic profiles revealed set associated regulatory transcriptional functions. Notably, zinc finger protein ZAT11 linoleate 13S-lipoxygenase 2-1 (LOX2.1) overexpressed but under-expressed 7001. Additionally, phytohormone crosstalk central component response adaptation stress.

Lignin is a phenolic heteropolymer found in most terrestrial plants that contributes an essential role plant growth, abiotic stress tolerance, and biotic resistance. Recent research grass lignin biosynthesis has differences compared to dicots such as Arabidopsis thaliana . For example, the prolific incorporation of hydroxycinnamic acids into secondary cell walls improve structural integrity vascular elements via covalent crosslinking. Conversely, fundamental monolignol chemistry conserves mechanisms translocation polymerization across phylum. Emerging evidence suggests compositions contribute periods often alter cereal hinder pathogenesis. This same recalcitrance also inhibits industrial valorization biomass, making alterations reductions field research. review presents update biosynthesis, translocation, polymerization, highlights how lignified development responses, briefly addresses genetic engineering strategies may benefit applications.

Drought stress poses a significant risk to soybean production, as it relies on optimum rainfall under rainfed conditions. Exposure brief dry periods during early vegetative growth impacts and development.

Abstract Tree species grown at high altitudes experience significantly greater stress than those lower altitudes. A notable example is Abies koreana , a conifer recently classified as endangered due to decline in normal seedling distribution within Korean natural forests. While several hypotheses have been proposed explain this phenomenon, the underlying causes remain unclear. Recent studies highlight that forest tree are increasingly vulnerable flash drought (FD) events. However, it still unknown whether intense FD event affects growth and of high‐altitude like . To address gap, we investigated effects on root carbon allocation, volatile biosynthesis, fatty acid modulation, genome‐wide modifications. Exposure three‐year‐old A. seedlings primarily disrupted leaf chlorophyll likely depletion water non‐structural carbohydrates (NSC) transport above‐ground parts. Additionally, caused severe morphological changes, including reductions collar diameter along with cortical senescence. These alterations linked transcriptomic variations, particularly mRNA decay repression genes coding for ribosomal proteins. Seedlings exposed also exhibited increased levels abscisic (ABA) poly‐unsaturated acids. The observed patterns molecular mechanisms FD‐treated differed from control mild (MD) treatments. findings suggest conditions trigger rapid reserve gene associated structural integrity, potentially leading mortality seedlings.
