The impact of rising temperature on various crops needs to be studied under field conditions. Therefore, a study was conducted at Ludhiana (India) during 2021 and 2022 to investigate the effect of high temperature on growth and yield of cowpea (<i>Vigna unguiculata</i> (L.) Walp.), a C3 legume, and pearl millet (<i>Pennisetum glaucum</i> (L.) R. Br.), a C4 cereal grown as fodder crops. Artificial heat stress was imposed during 0–15, 16–30, 31–45, 46–60 and 0–60 days after sowing (DAS). Mini heat tents made up of galvanised iron pipe and polythene sheets were installed which resulted in an increase in maximum and minimum temperature by 4.0°C–5.1°C and 0.5°C–1.5°C, respectively. The heat stress resulted in a statistically significant reduction in the number of branches, plant height, dry matter and fresh fodder yield of cowpea, while it resulted in a statistically significant increase in plant height, dry matter and fodder yield of pearl millet. Physiological parameters like chlorophyll index and flavanol index were decreased under high temperature in both crops indicating stress. Heat stress positively affected chlorophyll fluorescence in pearl millet and negatively in cowpea. Green fodder yield of cowpea decreased by 3.83%–18.56%, while that of pearl millet increased by 9.44%–25.02% under different heat stress treatments. Thus, heat stress resulted in a decrease in fodder productivity of the C3 crop due to a reduction in physiological and growth parameters, while the increase in the same led to an improvement in fodder productivity of the C4 crop.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":14864,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science","volume":"211 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143866009","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, its productivity is affected by abiotic and biotic stresses. Drought is one of the major global problems due to alarming global climate change. Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) help crops improve their resilience and survival in water-scarce environments. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the growth-promoting potential of rhizobacterial isolates to improve sorghum tolerance to drought and other abiotic stress. The bacterial sample from different soil roots of sorghum genotype was isolated from different locations in Ethiopia using serial dilution techniques. The biochemical properties of these isolates were evaluated. The potential of these PGPR traits to improve abiotic tolerance in sorghum was analysed under different temperatures, pH, salinity and drought stress. Furthermore, the potential of the rhizobacterial isolates' performance to improve sorghum drought tolerance was evaluated using four different concentrations of PEG (6000): (10%, 15%, 25% and 32.6%), which induces osmotic stress by reducing water availability, thus mimicking the effects of drought in sorghum. PCR detection of genes associated with abiotic stress, such as phosphate solubilisation, nitrogen fixation, ACC (1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate) deaminase and phytohormone production was performed using the designed primers. In addition, identification and molecular characterisation of PGPRs was performed using 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene-specific primers. Serial dilution techniques of soil from different sorghum genotype roots resulted in the identification of 210 rhizobacterial isolates. Biochemical analysis revealed that 68 isolates exhibited their potential for nitrogen fixation, while 50 isolates showed their ability to solubilise phosphate. PCR amplification identified genes involved in phosphate solubilisation, nitrogen fixation, ACC (1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate) deaminase and phytohormone production in several rhizobacterial isolates, suggesting that they have the potential to improve sorghum abiotic stress tolerance. Among the 68 rhizobacterial isolates examined, PCR amplification identified the <i>nifH</i> gene in 16 isolates, the <i>acdS</i> gene in 10 isolates and the <i>pgg</i> gene in 21 isolates. Among these, the <i>Pseudomonas</i> ms22 bacterial isolate showed a high potential to promote sorghum growth under greenhouse performance.

The cultivated potato is a tetraploid tuber propagated crop that is sensitive to drought stress. We revealed that the tuber yield in two subsequent tuber progeny generations strongly depended on the cultivar and drought-induced memory. Upon non-stressed conditions, drought stress memory caused significant tuber yield losses in the first tuber progeny generation. In the second stress-free tuber generation, partial memory resetting was observed. DNA methylation has been shown to play a significant role in plant stress responses. Information on stress memory in crop plants is still limited. This is the first report on alterations in drought-induced DNA methylation levels in the long-term stress memory in potato. We showed that epigenetic changes induced by drought stress differentiated Katahdin and five Katahdin-derived potato cultivars (Cayuga, Dalila, Pontiac, Sebago and Seneca). We determined the cultivar-specific profiles of differentially methylated regions (DMRs) in the first tuber progeny generation of drought-primed and non-primed potato plants planted under non-stressed conditions. The epigenetic stress effects were transmitted to the first progeny generation and then largely lost in the subsequent generation. This suggests that other molecular components of the stress-inducible memory mechanism can affect the transmission of epigenetic information between two potato tuber generations. For cultivars ‘Cayuga’ and ‘Sebago’, primed plants produced lower tuber yields than non-primed plants in the first tuber progeny generation, and nine shared DMRs were localised on potato chromosomes.

Given ongoing hunger-related challenges and the growing global population, developing crop varieties with improved tolerance to abiotic stresses is essential. Plant breeders have long used the natural stress tolerance of crops, selectively breeding cultivars capable of thriving in adverse conditions. Molecular tools have further advanced this success, allowing for identifying and manipulating genes associated with abiotic stress tolerance.

Wheat is a staple crop worldwide, and increasing its drought resilience is crucial. Trehalose, a stress-protective disaccharide, is crucial for enhancing drought tolerance. This review examines strategies for strengthening wheat's drought resilience through trehalose, including genetic modifications to enhance trehalose synthesis and external applications. It discusses how trehalose influences vital physiological processes—such as osmotic adjustment, oxidative stress reduction and cellular stability—that collectively boost drought tolerance. Additionally, this review explores nano-trehalose formulations, particularly nano-trehalose chitosan, as innovative means to improve trehalose delivery and efficacy. The review also synthesises recent findings, highlighting trehalose's role in supporting drought tolerance and its broader potential in sustainable agriculture. Integrating trehalose-based strategies and nanotechnology offers a promising pathway for developing drought-resistant wheat varieties, contributing to sustainable wheat production and global food security.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":14864,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science","volume":"211 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143741218","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
