Rice leaves can assimilate atmospheric mercury (Hg0), which is accumulated by grains and causes health risks to rice consumers. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying Hg0 assimilation in remain poorly understood. Here, we investigated catalase's (CAT) function oxidation within leaves, as well Hg speciation transcriptomic profiles of exposed Hg0. The inactivation catalase reduced 91% leaf homogenate rate increased along with CAT activity, showing CAT's oxidation. was converted Hg(cysteine)2 complexes leaf. Transcriptomic results revealed that expression levels both OsCATA OsCATB (catalase-encoding genes) concentration, suggesting involvement catalase-related network Upstream transcription factors, including NAC (NAM-no apical meristem, ATAF-Arabidopsis activation factor, CUC-cup-shaped cotyledon), ethylene-responsive are likely involved expression. Genes related cysteine metabolism amino acid transport appeared regulate accumulation.

The present day's ongoing global warming and climate change adversely affect plants through imposing environmental (abiotic) stresses disease pressure. major abiotic factors such as drought, heat, cold, salinity, etc., hamper a plant's innate growth development, resulting in reduced yield quality, with the possibility of undesired traits. In 21st century, advent high-throughput sequencing tools, state-of-the-art biotechnological techniques bioinformatic analyzing pipelines led to easy characterization plant traits for stress response tolerance mechanisms by applying 'omics' toolbox. Panomics pipeline including genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, epigenomics, proteogenomics, interactomics, ionomics, phenomics, have become very handy nowadays. This is important produce climate-smart future crops proper understanding molecular responses genes, transcripts, proteins, epigenome, cellular metabolic circuits resultant phenotype. Instead mono-omics, two or more (hence 'multi-omics') integrated-omics approaches can decipher well. Multi-omics-characterized be used potent genetic resources incorporate into breeding program.

Due to their stationary nature, plants are exposed a diverse range of biotic and abiotic stresses, which heavy metal (HM) stress poses one the most detrimental targeting plant processes. HMs instigate overproduction reactive oxygen species (ROS), mitigate adverse effects ROS, induce multiple defence mechanisms. Besides negative implications these molecules play multitude signalling roles in plants, acting as central player complex network cells. One ROS-associated mechanisms is mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade, pathway transduces extracellular stimuli into intracellular responses. Plant MAPKs have been implicated involved response, phytohormone regulation, cell cycle cues. However, influence various on MAPK activation has not well documented. In this review, we address summarise several aspects related HM-induced ROS signalling. Additionally, touch how signals activate cascade downstream transcription factors that responses HMs. Moreover, propose workflow could characterise genes associated with during HM

Due to anthropogenic activities, environmental pollution of heavy metals/metalloids (HMs) has increased and received growing attention in recent decades. Plants HM-contaminated soils have slower growth development, resulting lower agricultural yield. Exposure HMs leads the generation free radicals (oxidative stress), which alters plant morpho-physiological biochemical pathways at cellular tissue levels. evolved complex defense mechanisms avoid or tolerate toxic effects HMs, including absorption accumulation cell organelles, immobilization by forming complexes with organic chelates, extraction via numerous transporters, ion channels, signaling cascades, transcription elements, among others. Nonetheless, these internal defensive are insufficient overcome toxicity. Therefore, unveiling adaptation tolerance is necessary for sustainable agriculture. Recent breakthroughs cutting-edge approaches such as phytohormone gasotransmitters application, nanotechnology, omics, genetic engineering tools identified molecular regulators linked tolerance, may be applied generate HMs-tolerant future plants.
