This study elucidated the adaptations related to PSII photochemistry, photoprotection, and photoinhibition in six C4 xero-halophytes (Atriplex stocksii , Haloxylon stocksii , Salsola imbricata, Suaeda fruticosa, Desmostachya bipinnata , and Saccharum griffithii ) grown in their native habitats. Chlorophyll a fluorescence quenching measurements suggested that S. imbricata and H. stocksii maintained efficient PSII photochemistry by downregulating heat dissipation and keeping a high fraction of open PSII centres that indicates plastoquinone (PQ) pool oxidation. Fluorescence induction kinetics revealed that S. imbricata demonstrated the highest performance index of PSII excitation to the reduction of end electron acceptors. S. fruticosa sustained photochemical efficiency through enhanced dissipation of excess energy and a low fraction of open PSII centres, indicating PQ reduced state. The large light-harvesting antenna size, deduced from the chlorophyll a /b ratio in S. fruticosa apparently led to the superior performance index of PSII excitation to the reduction of intersystem electron carriers. A. stocksii retained more open PSII centres with responsive non-photochemical quenching to safely dissipate excess energy. Despite maintaining the highest pigment contents and stoichiometry, A. stocksii remained lowest in both performance indices. The grass species D. bipinnata and S. griffithii kept fewer PSII centres open during photoinhibition, as evidenced by downregulation of PSII operating efficiency. The results provide insights into the differential modulation of PSII photochemical efficiency through dynamic control of photoprotective energy dissipation, PQ pool redox states, and photoinhibitory shutdown in these xero-halophytes.","PeriodicalId":12483,"journal":{"name":"Functional Plant Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142375378","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Understanding how plants are able to adapt to these changing environmental conditions is a non-trivial challenge. Physiologically, improving a plant's intrinsic water use efficiency (WUEi ) will be essential for plant survival in dry conditions. Physically, plant adaptation and acclimatisation are constrained by a plant's anatomy. In other words, there is a strong link between anatomical structure and physiological function. Former research predominantly focused on using 2D anatomical measurements to approximate 3D structures based on the assumption of ideal shapes, such as spherical spongy mesophyll cells. As a result of increasing progress in 3D imaging technology, the validity of these assumptions is being assessed, and recent research has indicated that these approximations can contain significant errors. We suggest to invert the workflow and use the less common 3D assessments to provide corrections and functions for the more widely available 2D assessments. By combining these 3D and corrected 2D anatomical assessments with physiological measurements of WUEi , our understanding of how a plant's physical adaptation affects its function will increase and greatly improve our ability to assess plant survival.","PeriodicalId":12483,"journal":{"name":"Functional Plant Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142544777","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We analysed three height strata above the ground, establishing a light gradient, and considering seasonal water fluctuations. The upper leaves had higher area and mass and were less pigmented. The dry season induced a reduction of approximately 2h of stomatal opening over the diel 24h crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) cycle in the leaves at all understorey positions. The leaves more exposed to sunlight were larger with higher titratable acidity during the rainy season, while the leaves near the ground maintained the same rates of stomatal conductance and nocturnal acidification between seasons, with lowest values of carbon isotopes in the rainy season. Our research showed that some structural leaf traits (such as specific leaf mass, biomass, and saturated water content) are sensitive to variation in understorey position. In contrast, other physiological traits (stomatal conductance, transpiration, and fluorescence parameters) are more sensitive to seasonal variations.

Potatoes (Solanum tuberosum) are rich in starchy carbohydrates, suggesting the role of GHs in their metabolic pathways. In this study, we examine the GH superfamily in potato where 366 potential GHs were identified using a similarity search method. Genes were subjected to further characterisation to gain insights into their structural composition, functional properties and distribution patterns across tissue types. Several in silico methodologies were also employed to investigate the physicochemical features, conserved motifs, chromosomal mapping, duplication events, syntenic links with tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), subcellular localisations, secondary structures and phylogenetic relationships. Cis-elements in StGHs revealed that the promoters of StGHs contain cis-elements that are responsive to phytohormones that are involved in plant growth and development, and are associated with stress responses. RNA-seq data identified significant changes in expression levels of GH16, GH17, GH18, GH19 and GH28 members under stress conditions. Expression patterns of several GHs were confirmed using real time quantitative PCR in response to stress. StGH16.24 expression increased after 3 days of drought stress, whereas StGH16.30 continuously increased under salt stress. Potential interactions between potato miRNAs and StGH revealed 393 and 627 interactions under drought and salt stress, respectively. Our findings offer insights into specific functions of GHs in diverse developmental stages and stress-related challenges in potato and other plants.","PeriodicalId":12483,"journal":{"name":"Functional Plant Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142211974","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Given the difficulty of determining water relations strategy, there is a need for simple traits with a solid theoretical basis to estimate it. Traits associated with resource allocation patterns along a 'fast-slow' plant economics spectrum are particularly compelling, reflecting trade-offs between growth rate and carbon allocation. Avocado (Persea americana ), fig tree (Ficus carica ), mandarin (Citrus reticulata ), olive (Olea europaea ), pomegranate (Punica granatum ), and grapevine (Vitis vinifera ) were characterised in terms of iso-anisohydric strategy through stomatal behaviour, water potential at the turgor loss point (TLP), and hydroscape area. Additionally, the association of these metrics with leaf mass per area (LMA) and wood density (WDen) was explored. We observed high coordination between LMA and WDen, and both traits were related to metrics of water relation strategy. More anisohydric species tended to invest more carbon per unit leaf area or unit stem volume, which has implications for hydraulic efficiency and water stress tolerance. WDen and TLP were the most powerful traits in estimating the water relation strategy for six fruit species. These traits are easy to measure, time-cost efficient, and appear central to coordinating multiple traits and behaviours along the water relations strategies.","PeriodicalId":12483,"journal":{"name":"Functional Plant Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142119436","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To better understand the lodging phenomenon and determine the best linked trait to lodging, a study of lodging resistance was conducted in both artificially-induced and natural lodging conditions. Various morphological, phenological and biochemical traits, such as acid detergent fibre, acid detergent lignin, cellulose and activity of lignin-synthesising enzymes (phenylalanine ammonia lyase and tyrosine ammonia lyase) were recorded. Anatomical features were also examined by light microscopy, using the Wiesner reaction. Genotype C306 demonstrated the highest susceptibility to lodging compared to other varieties due to its limited production of lignin-synthesising enzymes, as well as its taller plant height and narrower culms. The dwarf mutants (DM6 and DM7) have a stronger resistance against lodging because they have thick stems and a short plant canopy structure. The most suitable donors for lodging are semidwarf varieties (HD2967, DPW621-50, DBW88) because they have higher production of lignin and lignin-synthesising enzymes. Grey correlation analysis also confirmed the ability of these three genotypes to tolerate lodging. The genotypes studied were comprehensively ranked.

Cereals are a very important source of food for the world population. Improved cultivars are needed, with better resistance to abiotic stresses like drought, salt, and increasing temperatures, and resilience to biotic stressors like bacterial and fungal infections, and pest infestation. A popular, versatile, and helpful method for functional genomics and crop improvement is genome editing. Rapidly developing genome editing techniques including clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and CRISPR-associated protein (Cas) are very important. This review focuses on how CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing might enhance cereals' agronomic qualities in the face of climate change, providing important insights for future applications. Genome editing efforts should focus on improving characteristics that confer tolerance to conditions exacerbated by climate change (e.g. drought, salt, rising temperatures). Improved water usage efficiency, salt tolerance, and heat stress resilience are all desirable characteristics. Cultivars that are more resilient to insect infestations and a wide range of biotic stressors, such as bacterial and fungal diseases, should be created. Genome editing can precisely target genes linked to disease resistance pathways to strengthen cereals' natural defensive systems.","PeriodicalId":12483,"journal":{"name":"Functional Plant Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142119437","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results showed that alkaline stress caused greater damage to their photosynthetic and antioxidant systems and led to greater accumulation of organic acid, membrane damage, proline and soluble sugar but a decreased jasmonic acid content compared with NaCl stress. Jasmonate ZIM-Domain (JAZ), the probable indole-3-acetic acid-amido synthetase GH3s, and the protein phosphatase type 2Cs that related to the hormone signalling pathway especially changed under Na2 CO3 stress. Further, the organic acid biosynthesis and metabolism process in rice seedlings were modified by both Na2 CO3 and NaHCO3 stresses through the glycolate/glyoxylate and pyruvate metabolism pathways.
