ABSTRACT This meta‐analysis assesses the effects of melatonin (Mel) on various wheat agronomic traits, revealing significant heterogeneity and potential publication bias. comprehensive analysis highlights variability across studies ( I 2 > 98% for overall, leaf area, root shoot weight), indicating a selective reporting in analysed studies. Grain yield weight showed values 93.78% 99.54%, respectively, confirming complex nature melatonin's impact, which necessitates use random‐effects models. Notably, study uncovers traits p < 0.05). Mel increased grain by 33.50% positively influenced weights compared to control (no melatonin; nMel). However, varied different concentration, application method environmental stressors. significantly with application, particularly foliar spray 41.40%, nMel. consistently enhanced overall response ratio (ln RR ) yield, weight, length, plant height, 33.50%, 24.01%, 21.28%, 32.99%, 36.33%, 15.94%, 22.14% 20.86% Compared nMel, most pronounced was observed under salt stress conditions.

Melatonin plays a pivotal role in alleviating abiotic stresses, yet its biosynthesis regulation crops, particularly wheat, remains unclear. This study explores regulatory components of melatonin under drought stress using bioinformatic, physiochemical, and molecular approaches contrasting wheat genotypes. Bioinformatic analysis identified SNAT, key gene, 88 transcription factors (TFs) from 26 families as potential regulators. The network for SNAT highlighted CYTOKININ-RESPONSIVE GATA FACTOR 1 (CGA1) significant TF. Under stress, genotypes exhibited distinct CGA1-SNAT module expression, cytokinin levels, photosynthetic activity, oxidative damage. Cytokinin treatments regulated the module, altering content, SPAD values, chloroplast numbers, drought-susceptible uncovers interaction with pathway regulating during stress. These findings enhance our understanding mechanisms underpinning tolerance offer promising targets genetic biochemical interventions to improve crop resilience.

Plum is one of the most produced stone fruits worldwide. Melatonin an environmentally eco-friendly substance that, in low concentrations, activates defence systems against biotic and abiotic stresses. This considered a tool that could increase fruit quality. study aimed to evaluate impact different preharvest foliar applications with melatonin concentrations (0.1, 0.3, 0.5 mmol L−1) enhance content shelf life ‘Primetime’ plum. To this purpose, two three were carried out at critical stages growth. Different quality characteristics such as size, colour, titratable acidity, total soluble solids, ripening index, respiration rate, ethylene production anthocyanins antioxidant activity, well endogenous content, tested harvest after 40 days cold storage. Results showed plums received 3 L−1 enhanced less softening, delayed darkening, higher anthocyanin concentration activity Therefore, was effective improving plums.

Melatonin is among one of the promising agents able to protect agricultural plants from adverse action different stressors, including salinity. We aimed investigate effects melatonin priming (0.1, 1.0 and 10 µM) on salt-stressed potato (125 mM NaCl), by studying growth parameters, photochemical activity photosystem II, water status, ion content antioxidant system activity. as a pleiotropic signaling molecule was found decrease negative effect salt stress stolon formation, tissue status without significant expression Na+/H+-antiporter genes localized vacuolar (NHX1 NHX3) plasma membrane (SOS1). effectively decreases accumulation lipid peroxidation products in leaves whole range concentrations studied. A melatonin-induced dose-dependent increase Fv/Fm together with uncontrolled non-photochemical dissipation Y(NO) also indicates decreased oxidative damage. The observed protective ability unlikely due its influence enzymes, since neither SOD nor peroxidase were activated melatonin. exerted positive water-soluble low-molecular-weight antioxidants, proline flavonoids, which could aid decreasing stress. most consistent carotenoids, are well-known lipophilic antioxidants playing an important role protection photosynthesis Finally, it possible that accumulated during pretreatment exert direct antioxidative ROS scavenging molecules.
