In this study, the chemical composition of Magnolia essential oil (MEO) was analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The results indicated that terpenoids were primary constituents, with main components being 1,8-cineole (44.87%), (+)-citronellal (6.93%), and linalool (29.1%). antibacterial activity MEO against four target bacteria confirmed through inhibition zone assays, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), bactericidal (MBC) tests. bacterial growth curve demonstrated significantly inhibited effectively delayed logarithmic phase. Mechanistic studies suggested primarily acts in initial stages by disrupting cell membrane, leading to substantial leakage intracellular materials, impairing metabolic activities, inducing lipid peroxidation, enhancing oxidative stress, thereby inhibiting normal proliferation. Furthermore, MEO's antioxidant properties evaluated its scavenging effects on DPPH hydroxyl radicals, as well ferric reducing power (FRAP). findings revealed exhibited strongest followed radical scavenging, FRAP comparatively weaker. These suggest not only possesses potent but also exhibits notable activity, indicating potential for broader applications.

Amidst escalating climate challenges, understanding microbe-mediated plant growth regulation and stress resilience is pivotal for sustainable agriculture. Non-pathogenic microbes, which reside in the phyllosphere, rhizosphere, as endophytes or epiphytes, play crucial roles enabling plants to withstand climate-induced stresses such extreme temperatures, drought, salinity, shifting pathogen dynamics.

Understanding the regulatory mechanism underlying AsA biosynthesis imperative to of high plants. In this study, we reveal auxin response factor SlARF4 transcriptionally inhibits SlMYB99, which subsequently modulates accumulation via transcriptional activation genes GPP, GLDH, DHAR. The auxin-dependent cascade SlARF4-SlMYB99-GPP/GLDH/DHAR synthesis, while mitogen-activated protein kinase SlMAPK8 not only phosphorylates but also activates its activity. Both SlMYB99 SlMYB11 proteins physically interact with each other, thereby synergistically regulating by upregulating expression DHAR genes. Collectively, these results demonstrate abscisic antagonistically regulate during drought tolerance tomato SlMAPK8-SlARF4-SlMYB99/11 module.
