Abstract Plant nutrient composition is a reliable tool to identify plant ecological strategies and niche differentiation. Here, we aimed (i) reveal the potential physiological mechanisms governing distinct foliar compositions among coexisting grassland species (ii) clarify role of taxonomy environmental conditions in these compositions. At local (grassland) scale, measured root morphological traits, photosynthetic parameters concentrations six macronutrients (N, P, S, K, Ca Mg) four micronutrients (Fe, Mn, Zn Cu) across 18 species. regional macro‐ micronutrient 76 site‐species combinations grasses forbs temperate meadow, typical, desert saline grasslands were Inner Mongolia. national collected data on macronutrient 513 Xinjiang, Qinghai‐Tibet Mongolia China. Compared with forbs, had 3.9 times higher branching intensity, but 58% 48% lower carboxylate exudation leaf transpiration rate. These acquisition transport led Ca, Mg Mn) than at scale. Most did not differ between whereas regardless type both scales. All exhibited stronger phylogenetic conservatism less control micronutrients. The biogeochemical segregation (Euclidean distance based PCA score concentrations) sympatric was meadow grasslands. Our results suggest that diverse can underlie forbs. linkage differentiation will advance our understanding coexistence adaptive strategy.

The sweet potato weevil Cylas formicarius is a notorious underground pest in (Ipomoea batatas L.). However, little known about the effects of cadmium (Cd) stress on biology and resistance to pesticides biotic agents. Therefore, we fed weevils with Cd-contaminated assessed adult food intake survival larval developmental duration mortality rates, as well insecticide spinetoram susceptibility entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana. With increasing Cd concentration, number feeding holes, life span, decreased significantly, whereas rates increased significantly. at lowest concentration (30 mg/L), was stimulated. Resistance low contamination did not affect sensitivity B. Thus, affected resistance, further studies will investigate accumulation detoxification mechanisms.

Abstract Background Glucosinolates (GSL) play an important role in providing defense to plants and helping them cope with various biotic, as well abiotic, stresses. Many living beings including humans animals, some herbivores, have adapted themselves use this mechanism for their own use. More than 120 glucosinolates are distributed within a large number of plants. factors known influence the GSL composition plant. Among these, cofactors, myrosinase isozymes, heavy metals environmental conditions such light, CO2 temperature regulation. These ensure that different glucosinolate compositions can be produced by plants, thus impacting mechanism. Objective The objective current review is highlight importance responsible affecting concentration. Methods has been compiled using accessible literature from Pubmed, Scopus, Google scholar. Efforts made restrict last 5 years (2018–2023), exceptions. Results critical acts resource all researchers working on these essential compounds. It provides information may production. also gives opportunity modify plant given information. Conclusions long ignored class biomolecule. plethora biological activities compounds useful. Though there harmful components goitrin progoitrin, easily removed modulating highlighted review. Highlights covered most ability mechanistic action discussed available literature.

Abstract Soil pollution by metals and metalloids as a consequence of anthropogenic industrialisation exerts seriously damaging impact on ecosystems. However, certain plant species, termed hyperaccumulators, are able to accumulate extraordinarily high concentrations these metal(loid)s in their aboveground tissues. Such hyperaccumulation is known act defence against various antagonists, such herbivores pathogens. We investigated the influences potential traits, foliar elemental, organic mechanical defences, hyperaccumulator species Arabidopsis halleri (Brassicaceae) artificially amending soil with common metallic pollutants, namely cadmium (Cd) zinc (Zn). Additionally, unamended metal-amended soils were supplemented metalloid silicon (Si) study whether Si could alleviate metal excess. Individuals originating from one non-/low- two moderately highly metal-contaminated sites different (hereafter called accessions ) grown for eight weeks full-factorial design under standardised conditions. There significant interactive effects amendment supplementation elements (Zn, Si, aluminium (Al), iron (Fe), potassium (K) sulfur (S), but accession-specific. Profiles glucosinolates, characteristic defences Brassicaceae, distinct among accessions, composition was affected amendment. Moreover, plants contained lower total glucosinolates which suggests trade-off between inorganic acquisition biosynthesis defence. The density trichomes, proxy first layer defence, also influenced and/or an accession-dependent manner. Our highlights importance examining co-occurring traits hyperaccumulating species.
