Abstract Melatonin was found in plants the late 1990s, but its function, signaling, and interaction with other phytohormones still unclear. research has increased substantially recent years, including reports on impact of this putative plant hormone under biotic abiotic stress situations. Temperature extremes, salt, drought, hypoxia or anoxia, nutrient deficiency, herbicides, UV radiation stress, heavy metal toxicity are all important obstacles to horticulture crop production worldwide. To deal these environmental challenges, have evolved complex signaling networks. Phytohormones essential for controlling growth, development, responses. Melatonin, a pleiotropic chemical present variety species, recently emerged as powerful regulator tolerance. The purpose review is investigate interplay between melatonin control responses horticultural crops. We explore interactions several various stresses.

Melatonin is a hormone-like substance that serves as secondary metabolite associated with variety of physiological, hormonal, and natural processes at the cell, tissue, organ levels. It acts plant biostimulant increase tolerance against abiotic stresses like ssalinity, drought, heat, cold heavy metals. in plants, also called phytomelatonin, participating cellular mechanisms ameliorates oxidative toxicity, hence helps to stand stress conditions. These exclusive properties strengthen defense capacity by stimulating detoxification reactive oxygen species (ROS), promoting physiological attributes, activation stress-responsive genes ameliorate toxicity caused stress. As key molecule, it exhibits several important molecular interactions nitric oxide (NO), calcium (Ca2+), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) sulfide (H2S). In this review article, we discuss salient role melatonin morphological adaptation well its involvement mitigation. Besides, under stress, interaction NO, Ca2+, H2O2, H2S has been demonstrated. This study will provide reference for elucidating regulatory mechanism influencing resistance plants.
