Abstract Most vegetable crops are severely affected by the uptake of heavy metals from soil. Heavy in bodies generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) that unbalance antioxidant defense system. This study was initiated to determine physiological and biochemical characteristics spinach plants grown on soil contaminated with responding Bacillus cereus aerius were isolated metals. metal contamination led a significant reduction seed germination, seedling biomass, protein, total nitrogen content soils compared control soils. In contrast, increase metallothioneins enzymes observed. Plants inoculated B. significantly reduced oxidative stress induced improving germination (%), growth, nitrogen, protein content. The activities seeds bacterial strains. addition, with, showed greater stomata opening than metals, whose almost closed. These results suggested both strains enhanced plant growth reducing caused

Climate change has exacerbated the rate and intensity of abiotic stresses such as drought salinity, posing significant threats to crop growth yield. This review comprehensively explores recent physiochemical molecular approaches stress tolerance in plants. It highlights complex physiological adjustments, including stomatal regulation, osmotic balance, altered patterns, that plants undergo response environmental stressors. The delves into biochemical pathways involved response, notably glyoxalase system ascorbate-glutathione pathway, emphasizing their roles maintaining cellular homeostasis detoxifying reactive oxygen species. A portion is dedicated elucidating mechanisms underlying plant tolerance, focusing on modulation gene expression, regulation stress-responsive genes, potential genetic engineering enhance resilience. We also discuss contribution secondary metabolites both enzymatic non-enzymatic antioxidants mitigating adverse effects stress. Moreover, addresses advancements technological tools have revolutionized our understanding physiology, genomic editing transcriptomic analyses. comprehensive synthesis current research findings provides valuable insights development innovative strategies stress, contributing significantly field sustainable agriculture global food security era climate change.

Combination of intercropping maize and soybean with root exudate additions reduces metal mobility in soil-plant system under wastewater irrigation

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 266, С. 115549 - 115549

Опубликована: Окт. 9, 2023

The effects of root exudates and irrigation with treated wastewater on heavy metal mobility soil bacterial composition under intercropping remain poorly understood. We conducted a pot experiment maize soybean grown in monocultures or intercultures, irrigated either groundwater wastewater. In addition, the pre-collected from hydroponic culture mono- inter-cropped were applied to at four levels (0 %, 16 32 % 64 %). results showed that application increased plant growth nutrient content. analysis "Technique for Order Preference by Similarity Ideal Solution" higher biomass lower Cd Pb concentrations indicated best performance was recorded exudates, score 0.926 0.953 Pb, respectively. second-best also observed exudates. Root exudate reduced metals migration soil-plant system, greater impact than monocropping. certain microorganisms application, regardless water. This study suggests appropriate could potentially improve health, reduce toxic soils plants

This study investigated the physiological and molecular responses of rice genotype '9311' to Cd stress mitigating effects silicon oxide nanoparticles (SiO NPs). exposure severely hindered plant growth, chlorophyll content, photosynthesis, accumulation. However, SiO NPs supplementation, particularly SiONP100 treatment, significantly alleviated Cd-induced toxicity, adverse on growth while maintaining content photosynthetic attributes. The treatment also reduced accumulation, indicating a preference for Si uptake in 9311. Complex interactions among Cd, Si, Mg, Ca, K were uncovered, with fluctuations MDA H2O2 contents. Distinct morphological changes stomatal aperture mesophyll cell structures observed, including starch granules, grana thylakoids, osmophilic plastoglobuli. Moreover, following 9311 increased peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, catalase activities by 56%, 44%, 53% shoots 62%, 49%, 65% roots, respectively, robust defense mechanism against stress. Notably, OsNramp5, OsHMA3, OsSOD-Cu/Zn, OsCATA, OsCATB, OsAPX1 showed significant expression after suggesting potential translocation within tissues. Overall, supplementation holds promise enhancing tolerance plants essential functions.

In the current industrial scenario, cadmium (Cd) as a metal is of great importance but poses major threat to ecosystem. However, role micronutrient - amino chelates such iron lysine (Fe lys) in reducing Cr toxicity crop plants was recently introduced. experiment, exogenous applications Fe lys i.e., 0 and10 mg L 1, were examined, using an vivo approach that involved plant growth and biomass, photosynthetic pigments, oxidative stress indicators antioxidant response, sugar osmolytes under soil contaminated with varying levels Cd 0, 50 100 µM two different varieties canola Sarbaz Pea 09. Results revealed increasing decreased growth-related attributes apparatus also soluble protein sugar. contrast, addition significantly increased contents malondialdehyde (MDA) hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), which induced damage both activities superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), catalase (CAT), non-enzymatic compounds phenolic, flavonoid, proline, anthocyanin, scavenge over-production reactive oxygen species (ROS). can be overcome by supplementation lys, improved machinery contents, antioxidative enzymes, even grown soil. Research findings, therefore, suggested application ameliorate result composition stress.
