Plants are constantly exposed to abiotic and biotic stresses that seriously affect crop yield quality. A coordinated regulation of plant responses combined abiotic/biotic requires crosstalk between signaling pathways initiated by each stressor. Interconnected further finetune stress allow the respond such effectively. The nutritional status might influence disease resistance strengthening or weakening immune responses, as well through modulation pathogenicity program in pathogen. Here, we discuss advances our understanding interactions nutrient stress, deficiency excess, context current agricultural practices. introduction chemical fertilizers pesticides was a major component Green Revolution 1960s greatly boosted production. However, massive application agrochemicals also has adverse consequences on environment animal/human health. Therefore, an in-depth connections caused overfertilization (or low bioavailability nutrients) is timely novel field research with important implications for control species.

Magnesium (Mg 2+ ) is pivotal for the vitality, yield, and quality of horticultural crops. Central to plant physiology, Mg powers photosynthesis as an integral component chlorophyll, bolstering growth biomass accumulation. Beyond basic growth, it critically affects crop factors, from chlorophyll synthesis taste, texture, shelf life. However, Mg2 + deficiency can cripple yields impede development. Transporters (MGTs) orchestrate dynamics, with notable variations observed in species such Cucumis sativus, Citrullus lanatus , Citrus sinensis . Furthermore, key fortifying plants against environmental stressors diseases by reinforcing cell walls spurring defense substances. A burgeoning area research application magnesium oxide nanoparticles (MgO-NPs), which, owing their nanoscale size high reactivity, optimize nutrient uptake, enhance stress resilience. Concurrently, modern breeding techniques provide insights into dynamics develop crops improved efficiency resilience deficiency. Effective management through soil tests, balanced fertilization, pH adjustments holds promise maximizing health, productivity, sustainability. This review unravels nuanced intricacies physiology genetics, its interplay external serving a cornerstone those keen on harnessing potential excellence.

Abstract Providing the world’s population with sufficient and nutritious food through sustainable systems is a major challenge of twenty-first century. Fertilizer use driver crop yield, but comprehensive synthesis effect fertilizer on nutritional quality crops lacking. Here we performed global meta-analysis using 7859 data pairs from 551 field experiment-based articles published between 1972 2022, assessing contribution fertilization wide set plant nutrients to (i.e., fruits, vegetables, cereals, pulses/oil crops, sugar crops). On average, application improved yield by 30.9% (CI: 28.2–33.7%) (referring all nutritionally relevant components assessed; carbohydrates, proteins, oil, vitamin C, representative mineral nutrients, total soluble solids) 11.9% 10.7–12.1%). The improvements were largely nutrient- species dependent, vegetables being most responsive. Potassium, magnesium, micronutrients played important roles in promoting quality, whereas combined inorganic organic source(s) had greatest impact quality. Desirable climatic conditions soil properties silt loam, matter 2.5–5.0%, pH 4.5–8.5) supported further enhancements. Considering cross-continent responsiveness, increase was Africa.

Nanomaterials (NMs), particularly ZnO nanoparticles (NPs), show great promise in sustainable agriculture for enhancing crop production, mineral nutrition, and food safety. However, custom synthesis of NMs to optimize performance is still a bottleneck. This study synthesized three types (NPs) (nZnO-1, nZnO-2, nZnO-3) with different particle size, charge, dissolution properties were foliar-applied wheat under field conditions. Foliar application nZnO-3 significantly increased grain by 15.2% biological yield 9.5% compared that the unamended control. Both nZnO-2 improved Zn content whole (21.0 15.6%, respectively) starchy endosperm (31.8 13.1%, respectively), enhanced bioavailability (40.9 43.3%, estimated daily intake (EDI) (55.1 23.8%, respectively). Impressively, also reduced Cd concentration (17.2%) although it did not affect level flour. Additionally, all treatments levels crude protein (5.2–15.7%) other nutrients (e.g., S, Fe, Mn) grains.
