This study investigates the physiological and morphological responses of wheat (Triticum aestivum) pea (Pisum sativum) grown in a mixture lunar soil (LS) simulant organic (OS). The experiment compared growth both 100% (OS) 3:2 OS LS (OS: LS). Wheat exhibited increased branching root OS: LS, while plants showed enhanced aerial elongation altered branch morphology. Photochemical efficiency (Fv/Fm) pigment concentrations were significantly affected, with showing reduced chlorophyll content LS. Oxidative stress indicators, such as lipid peroxidation, higher levels than plants, particularly mixture. Hormonal analysis performed by LC-MS/MS indicated significant increases abscisic acid (ABA) its catabolites suggesting an adaptive response to suboptimal conditions. results highlight species-specific strategies, investing more development promoting growth. These findings provide important insights into how essential crops could adapt extraterrestrial soils, contributing sustainable agricultural practices for space exploration. Future research should focus on optimising crop performance based adaptative mixed-soil environments.

Drought stress substantially restricts cotton growth, decreasing production potential worldwide. This study evaluated genotypes at the flowering stage to identify drought-resilient under moderate and severe drought conditions using physio-morphic biochemical markers. Five were examined in a completely randomized design with three replicates across treatments. Growth traits measured after 14 days of stress. The Multi-trait Genotype-Ideotype Distance Index (MGIDI) identified most drought-tolerant genotypes. Severe had pronounced negative effect on growth traits, followed by drought. Among genotypes, FH-912 exhibited strongest resilience, significant increases proline, peroxidase, catalase, total chlorophyll. In contrast, chlorophyll transpiration rates largely unaffected. Genotypes VH-351, VH-281, GH-99 showed tolerance, while FH-556 was highly sensitive water Statistical analyses, including ANOVA, PCA, heatmaps, confirmed FH-912's superior performance genotype, FH-912, holds promise for breeding varieties sustain productivity water-limited environments, especially drought-prone regions.

Beneficial microbes enhance plant growth and development, even under stressful conditions. Serratia fonticola (S1T1) Pseudomonas koreensis (S4T10) are two multi-trait growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPRs) that resistant to saline This study evaluated the synergistic effect of these PGPRs on mitigating salinity stress (200 mM) in Cucumis sativus. Presently, both strains enhances attributes cucumber, parameters were significantly higher than those uninoculated plants. The PGPR-treated plants revealed a biomass improved chlorophyll content. inoculation S1T1 S4T10 promoted 23, 24, 28% increases, respectively, fresh 16, 19.8, 24% dry biomass. Similarly, their effects led 16.5, 28.4, 38% water potential 18, 22, decreases, abscisic acid (ABA). A reduction electrolytic leakage (EL) was additional proof successful PGPR activities. decrease antioxidant levels, including malondialdehyde (21–30%), hydrogen peroxide (19–38%), superoxide anions (24–34%), observed, alongside an increase enzymes such as catalase (22–29%) dismutase (17–27%). Additionally, enhanced NaCl tolerance by upregulating expression ion transporter genes HKT1 (1–2-fold), NHX (1–3-fold), SOS1 (2–4-fold). Conclusively, C. sativus L. salt stress.

Cotton is a kind of cash crop widely planted in arid and semi-arid areas. In this study, we performed multi-omics analysis two drought resistant extreme materials, Yumian 4 C460, under stress. Transcriptome showed that DY (post-drought stress 4) had more differentially expressed genes than DC C460), there were 10247 DEGs the comparison groups. Metabolomics identified 1766 metabolites, which divided into 12 classes. The up-regulated metabolites mainly included lipid accumulation, phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, flavonoids. combined transcriptome metabolome highlighted importance biosynthesis enhancing tolerance. Combining omics analysis, it was found enrichment pathway differential phenylpropane pathway, contains 23 related candidate genes. summary, results resistance cotton materials they enhanced by affecting pathways. Promote accumulation osmotic substances. further deepen our understanding molecular mechanism tolerance provide new insights for breeding cotton.
