Plants have large amounts of the late embryogenesis abundant protein (LEA) family proteins, which is involved in osmotic regulation. The Korla Pear (Pyrus sinkiangensis Yu) an uncommon pear species that thrives Xinjiang and can survive below-freezing conditions. We found PsLEA4 gene was more expressed after cold treatment by looking at transcriptome data Pear. In order to evaluate biological function under low-temperature stress its potential for use agricultural breeding, we cloned from Pear, made a plant overexpression vector, transformed it into tomato via Agrobacterium transformation. When exposed low temperatures, regulate proline metabolism antioxidant enzyme activity tomatoes compared wild tomatoes. Because this, transgenic are resilient temperatures produce than their counterparts. Thus, expressing has multiple advantages: (1) Improving frost resistance reducing damage. (2) Increasing crop yield. Therefore, this study provides theoretical basis role plants’ resilience as well application breeding.

The resilience of plants to concurrent abiotic stresses—such as drought, salinity, extreme temperatures, heavy metals, and elevated CO2 levels—is paramount in the era climate change. Reactive oxygen species (ROS), traditionally perceived mere byproducts metabolic processes, serve a dual role: crucial signaling molecules that facilitate plant adaptation deleterious agents causing cellular damage when excessively accumulated. In this review, we highlighted intricate equilibrium maintain through both enzymatic non-enzymatic antioxidant defenses mitigate ROS-mediated oxidative stress, emphasizing sophisticated strategies deploy counteract spectrum combined stresses. Some species, however, exhibit insufficient enhancement their intrinsic counterbalance stress-induced ROS accumulation consequent damage. Consequently, explored pivotal role diverse further strengthening defenses, offering profound insights into bolstering resilience. Furthermore, advent genetic engineering technologies unveils novel avenues for crop improvement, with strategic overexpression genes such SOD, APX, CAT, GPX, DHAR, GR, GST showing immense potential fortifying against challenges imposed by multiple Future perspectives entail deepening our understanding molecular mechanisms governing generation scavenging, investigating synergistic effects co-expressing genes, elucidating interactions between endogenous hormones exogenously applied molecules. We advocate integrative research methodologies, combining field experiments, controlled environmental studies, computational modeling, bridge gap laboratory discoveries practical agricultural applications.

However, the biological implications of variation have remained largely unknown. universal stress phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) as well major stimuli drought and salinity were selected representative cases investigate how changes relate plant behaviors Arabidopsis . Variations negatively regulated cotyledon greening inhibition hormone ABA or through action extracellular hydrogen peroxide (eH 2 O ). Further studies revealed that an increase diminishes chemical reactivity eH , effectively functioning ‘off’ switch for its oxidizing thiols plasma membrane proteins. Consequently, this suppresses ‐mediated ABA, alongside inhibiting intracellular Ca 2+ signaling. Conversely, a decrease serves ‘on’ In summary, crucial messenger signal transduction, notwithstanding apparent simplicity underlying mechanism. Our findings provide novel fundamental insight into significance pH.

Low-temperature stress, including chilling and freezing injuries, significantly impacts plant growth in tropical temperate regions. Plants respond to cold stress by activating mechanisms that enhance tolerance, such as regulating photosynthesis, metabolism, protein pathways producing osmotic regulators antioxidants. Membrane stability is crucial, with cold-resistant plants exhibiting higher lipid unsaturation maintain fluidity normal metabolism. Low temperatures disrupt reactive oxygen species (ROS) leading oxidative damage, which mitigated antioxidant defenses. Hormonal regulation, involving ABA, auxin, gibberellins, others, further supports adaptation. also manage balance accumulating like proline sugars. Through complex regulatory pathways, the ICE1-CBF-COR cascade, optimize gene expression survive ensuring adaptability conditions. This study reviews recent advancements genetic engineering technologies aimed at enhancing resistance of agricultural crops. The goal provide insights for improving tolerance developing new cold-tolerant varieties.

Bell pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) is a commercially important and nutritionally rich vegetable crop in the Solanaceae family. Alkaline stress (AS) can disrupt growth, metabolism, and, particularly, nutritional quality. This study aims to evaluate role of iron oxide nanoparticles (FeNP) mitigating AS enhancing plant growth metabolic functions by conducting experiments under controlled greenhouse conditions with four main treatments: (irrigating plants alkaline salts mixture solution); FeNP (foliar application Fe3O4 at 100 mg L−¹); + (integrated treatment FeNP); CK (control). The results clearly demonstrated that negatively affects biomass, photosynthetic attributes, membrane integrity, carbohydrate balance antioxidant system. Additionally, key phenolic flavonoid compounds decreased AS, indicating detrimental effect on plant's secondary metabolites. In contrast, not only improved attributes but also enhanced integrity restored balance. restoration was driven accumulation sugars (glucose, fructose, sucrose) starch, along metabolism enzymes—sucrose phosphate synthase (SPS), sucrose (SuSy), neutral invertase (NI), vacuolar (VI)—and their associated gene expression. correlation analysis further revealed tight regulation both enzymatic transcript levels all tissue types, except for SPS roots. Furthermore, resulted increased phenolics (dihydrocapsaicin, capsaicin, p-coumaric acid, sinapic p-OH benzoic benzaldehyde, ferulic acid) (dihydroquercetin, naringenin, kaempferol, dihydrokaempferol, quercetin) compared treatment, thus suggesting these metabolites likely contribute stabilization cellular structures membranes, ultimately supporting physiological resilience stress. conclusion, demonstrate potential bell against improving
