Climate change has significantly exacerbated the effects of abiotic stresses, particularly high temperatures and drought stresses. This study aims to uncover mechanisms underlying heat tolerance in lentil accessions. To achieve this objective, twelve accessions were subjected high-temperature stress (32/20 °C), while seven underwent assessment under conditions (50% field capacity) during reproductive stage. Our findings revealed a significant increase catalase activity across all both conditions, with ILL7814 ILL7835 recording highest accumulations 10.18 9.33 stress, respectively, 14 µmol H2O2 mg protein-1 min-1 temperature. Similarly, ascorbate peroxidase increased tolerant due temperatures, ILL6359, ILL7835, ILL8029 accumulating values up 50 min-1. In contrast, no was obtained for water although drought-tolerant accumulated more APX (16.59 t 25.08 min-1) than sensitive The ILL6075, ILL7814, had superoxide dismutase temperature, ILL6363, each 22 25 units protein-1.

ABSTRACT Plant growth regulators (PGRs) improve crop and mitigate the adverse effects of drought stress. This study explores various PGRs including melatonin (MT), indole‐butyric acid (IBA) gibberellic (GA 3 ) on drought‐tolerant Zhongzhe 9 (ZZ9) Xintaitang 22 (ROC22), as well drought‐sensitive varieties Guitang‐44 (GT44) Funong 41 (FN41) varieties. A pot experiment was conducted to evaluate foliar application these hormones alone or in combination sugarcane seedlings under stress conditions. At sixth leaf stage, induced by reducing soil moisture 40%–45% field capacity. Results showed that variety GT44 had highest plant height (17.97 cm), while enhanced relative water content (RWC) FN41 0.96%. treatment also increased 33.98% RWC 3.26% compared controls. MT significantly chlorophyll a b contents 4.82% 4.51%, respectively. Antioxidant enzyme activities superoxide dismutase peroxidase 16.39% 12.57%, respectively, indicating oxidative defence. Moreover, applications reduced hydrogen peroxide malondialdehyde (MDA) accumulation, signifying decreased damages. The combinations + GA IBA improved attributes, antioxidant enzymes, osmolytes accumulation ROS MDA both tolerant sensitive Thus, combined treatments effectively mitigated seedlings, providing valuable insights for sustainable agricultural practices.
