Climate change and abiotic stress challenges in crops are threatening world food production. Among others, salinity affects the agricultural sector by significantly impacting yield losses. Plant biostimulants have received increasing attention industry due to their ability improve health resilience crops. The main driving force of these products lies modulate plant metabolic processes involved response. This study's purpose was investigate effect two biostimulant products, including a protein hydrolysate (Clever HX®) seaweed extract with high amino acids content (Ascovip®), combination, on metabolomics profile tomato grown under salt (150 mM NaCl). Several indicators (leaf relative water content, membrane stability index, photosynthesis activity) leaf mineral composition after exposure were assessed evaluate mitigation, together growth parameters (shoot root biomasses). After that, an untargeted approach used mechanism action link increased stress. application reduced detrimental salinity. In saline conditions, improved shoot dry weight while extracts weight. Regarding indicators, found alleviate damage caused compared untreated plants. Surprisingly, photosynthetic activity treatment extracts, suggesting close correlation between development, assimilation capacity activity. Considering reprogramming application, hydrolysates combination reported distinctive modulation, mainly secondary metabolite, lipids fatty acids, phytohormones biosynthetic pathways. However, similar trend Our findings indicate different modulated extract, stronger as mitigator

Citrullus lanatus L. is critical vegetable for salinity stress. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and silicon treatments are known to help as bio-ameliorator of saline soils that can improve tolerance in plants. But their combined effect has never been examined on watermelon therefore, present study investigated the inoculation with along growth yield parameters, antioxidant enzyme activities, pigment mineral content plants grown during salt stress conditions. Outcomes from point out stressed showed best morphological biochemical values when inoculated Silicon (4 mM) + Glomus mosseae Gigaspora gigantean. In addition, by similar treatment demonstrated less osmotic activity, electrolyte leakage, well peroxide content. Treatments comprising either gigantean also performed significantly most traits studied investigation better than only one Antioxidant efficiency melon was certainly appreciably enhanced after incubation AMF Si combination Overall, application mycorrhiza be considered overcome watermelon.

Salinity stress affects plant growth, development, nutrient uptake, and yield. Applications of micronutrients, specifically zinc (Zn), can mitigate the harmful consequences salt stress. During winter season 2022, an experiment was conducted in net house BINA substation Satkhira, Bangladesh, to examine impact different Zn concentrations (5 10 kg ha-1) on tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum L.) yield, fruit quality, acquisition abilities under (SS) conditions (SS0.5%, SS1.0%, SS1.5% NaCl). The result study showed that lowered height, number branches per plant, flower clusters, fruits vitamin C, protein lycopene contents, nutrients, i.e., nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), (Zn) iron (Fe). application ha-1 (Zn10) increased all previously mentioned parameters both saline usual conditions. On other hand, a decrease amount Na observed when from 5 ha-1. Plant Na/K ratios were consequently lowest at highest concentration. Therefore, findings indicate improves traits by mitigating negative impacts environments.

Abiotic stresses are the major stressors affecting wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production worldwide. The world population is increasing continuously. It very difficult to feed because one-third world's consumes as a staple food. Among all abiotic stresses, salinity one that led drastic reduction in crop fitness and productivity. Thus, understanding effects of stress becomes indispensable for improvement programs which have depended mainly on genetic variations present genome through conventional breeding. Therefore, an experiment was conducted using complete randomized design with four replications, determine selection criteria salinity-tolerant germplasm based morphophysiological traits at seedling stage. Three levels salt solutions, i.e., 4, 8, 12 dSm-1 were applied performance different genotypes under these three salinities observed.

Drought and salinity are significant challenges to global food security. This study investigated the interactive impacts of Piriformospora indica inoculation with drought stresses on rice. Two greenhouse experiments were conducted. The first experiment evaluated two P. levels three (0-, 50-, 100-mM sodium chloride), while subsequent assessed under intensities (25%, 50%, 100% available water content). spores inoculated following optimized seed disinfection germination processes. shoot root biomass stress consistently higher in plants compared controls. Sodium concentrations shoots roots exhibited an overall upward trend, trend being less pronounced due increased potassium uptake. Under stress, nitrogen, magnesium, calcium significantly plants. With increasing salinity, there was a increase catalase enzyme activity soluble carbohydrate across all treatments, greater Plants experienced reduced biomass, but maintained biomass. Increasing led decreased reduction severe Catalase rising more non-inoculated ones. By promoting plant growth, nutrient uptake, tolerance, has potential enhance crop productivity extreme climate conditions.
