The rising frequency of extreme climate events requires sustainable strategies to secure food production. Environmental stress impacts seed germination and seedling development, posing a significant agricultural challenge. To address this, we developed applied iron-based nanoparticles (Bio-NPs) synthesized through green biosynthesis from Haematococcus pluvialis, microalga rich in antioxidants like astaxanthin. These Bio-NPs, approximately 21 nm diameter characterized by negative surface charge, were used as priming agents for maize seeds. Their effects on physiological traits analyzed with multispectral imaging, showing enhanced normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) chlorophyll levels seedlings, highlighting Bio-NPs effective biostimulants. Among the tested concentrations, 6 mM yielded most substantial improvements health compared unprimed hydro-primed groups. Importantly, vitro studies confirmed that had no harmful beneficial bacteria fungi agronomic importance, underscoring their safety. Although exact biological pathways responsible these enhancements are yet be fully understood, further research into plant responses could yield new insights biostimulation. thus hold promises strengthening resilience under environmental scenarios, currently observed due global change, offering safe, approach enhancement. By leveraging microalgae-based biostimulants, this work advances technology, fostering crop supporting environmentally friendly practices.

Although exogenous chemicals frequently exhibit a biphasic response in regulating plant growth, characterized by low-dose stimulation and high-dose inhibition, the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. This study demonstrates, for first time, compensatory function of rhizosphere microbiota assisting plants to withstand pesticide stress. It was observed that pak choi plants, foliar-spraying imidacloprid at both low high doses, could increase total number bacteria enrich numerous beneficial bacteria. These have capabilities promoting growth degrading pesticide, such as Nocardioides, Brevundimonas, Sphingomonas. The bacterial communities were recruited stressed through increasing release primary metabolites root exudates, amino acids, fatty lysophosphatidylcholines. At doses application, microbial effect overcame stress, leading promotion. However, with insufficient counteract resulting inhibition. findings pave way designing improved application strategies contribute better understanding how can be used an eco-friendly approach mitigate chemical-induced stress crops.

This study was sought to investigate the chemical composition and antibacterial antiulcerative colitis (UC) effects of essential oil from Pruni Semen (PSEO). A GC-MS assay showed that major compounds in PSEO were products amygdalin hydrolysis, which possessed great anti-inflammatory potential. In vitro experiments demonstrated treatment inhibited activity four kinds intestinal pathogens probably by disrupting cell wall. Further vivo studies administration significantly improved physiological indexes, attenuated histopathological characteristics, proinflammatory cytokine production dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced UC mice. Network pharmacology molecular docking results predicted might prevent via regulating PI3K/AKT pathway.

Polyamines (PAs) are low-molecular-weight compounds that contain amino groups. PAs present in a variety of organisms, including plants, animals and microorganisms. In the main putrescine (PUT), spermidine (SPD) spermine (SPM).

Background: Plants face a wide range of environmental stresses that disrupt growth and productivity. To survive adapt, they undergo complex metabolic reprogramming by redirecting carbon nitrogen fluxes toward the biosynthesis protective secondary metabolites such as phenylpropanoids, flavonoids, lignin. Recent research has revealed these stress-induced processes are tightly regulated epigenetic mechanisms, including DNA methylation, histone modifications, chromatin remodeling, non-coding RNAs. Methods: This review synthesizes current findings from studies on both model crop plants, examining roles key regulators in controlling metabolism under stress. Special focus is placed dynamic changes acetylation, action small RNAs siRNAs miRNAs transcriptional post-transcriptional regulation. Results: Evidence indicates stress triggers rapid reversible modifications modulate gene expression linked to pathways. These not only facilitate immediate responses but can also contribute memory. In some cases, this memory retained transmitted next generation, influencing progeny responses. However, critical knowledge gaps remain, particularly concerning temporal dynamics, tissue specificity, long-term stability marks crops. Conclusions: Understanding how regulation governs metabolite production offers promising avenues enhance resilience productivity context climate change. Future should prioritize dissecting heritability support development epigenetically informed breeding strategies.

Plants are constantly subjected to environmental changes that deeply affect their metabolism, leading the inhibition or synthesis of “specialized” compounds, small organic molecules play a fundamental role in adaptative responses. In this work, Melissa officinalis L. (an aromatic plant broadly cultivated due large amounts secondary metabolites) plants were exposed realistic ozone (O3) dosages (80 ppb, 5 h day−1) for 35 consecutive days with aim evaluate its potential use as elicitor specialized metabolite production. Ozone induced stomatal dysfunction throughout whole experiment, associated low photosynthetic performance, decrease energy conversion activity PSII, and an alteration total chlorophyll content (−35, −36, −10, −17% average compared controls, respectively). The production hydrogen peroxide at 7 from beginning exposure (+47%) resulted lipid peroxidation visible injuries. This result suggests metabolic disturbance within cell concomitant homeostasis, probably limited activation antioxidative mechanisms. Moderate accumulated doses O3 triggered accumulation hydroxycinnamic acids up-regulation genes encoding enzymes involved rosmarinic acid, phenylpropanoid, flavonoid biosynthesis. While high significantly enhanced hydroxybenzoic acid flavanone glycosides. Our study shows application investigated concentration period (such two/three weeks) may become useful tool stimulate bioactive compounds M. officinalis.
