Optimal K nutrition is particularly important when plants are exposed to stress conditions (especially drought and heat) because a cellular demand for K increases. Low K in plant tissues is known to aggravate the effects of drought stress by impairing the osmoregulation process and the photosynthetic carbon metabolism. However, despite numerous publications about the role of K in enhancing tolerance to drought stress in crop plants, our understanding of the major mechanisms underlying the stress-mitigating effects of K is still limited. This paper summarizes and appraises the current knowledge on the major protective effects of K under drought stress, and then proposes a new K-related drought stress-mitigating mechanism, whereby optimal K nutrition may promote partitioning of carbohydrates in stem tissues and subsequent mobilization of these carbohydrates into developing grain under drought stress. The importance of stem reserves of carbohydrates is based on limited photosynthetic capacity during the grain-filling period under drought conditions due to premature leaf senescence as well as due to impaired assimilate transport from leaves to the developing grains. Plants with a high capacity to store large amounts of soluble carbohydrates in stems before anthesis and mobilize them into grain post-anthesis have a high potential to yield well in dry and hot environments. In practice, particular attention needs to be paid to the K nutritional status of plants grown with limited water supply, especially during grain filling. Because K is the mineral nutrient deposited mainly in stem, a special consideration should be given to stems of crop plants in research dealing with the effects of K on yield formation and stress mitigation.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":16808,"journal":{"name":"Journal of plant physiology","volume":"303 ","pages":"Article 154325"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141979746","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Numerous research based on breeding and genomics have been conducted to increase the production of cotton in environments with high and low-temperature stress. High temperature (HT) is a major environmental stressor with global consequences, influencing several aspects of cotton plant growth and metabolism. Heat stress-induced physiological and biochemical changes are research topics, and molecular techniques are used to improve cotton plants' heat tolerance. To preserve internal balance, heat stress activates various stress-responsive processes, including repairing damaged proteins and membranes, through various molecular networks. Recent research has investigated the diverse reactions of cotton cultivars to temperature stress, indicating that cotton plant adaptation mechanisms include the accumulation of sugars, proline, phenolics, flavonoids, and heat shock proteins. To overcome the obstacles caused by heat stress, it is crucial to develop and choose heat-tolerant cotton cultivars. Food security and sustainable agriculture depend on the application of genetic, agronomic, and, biotechnological methods to lessen the impacts of heat stress on cotton crops. Cotton producers and the textile industry both benefit from increased heat tolerance. Future studies should examine the developmental responses of cotton at different growth stages, emphasize the significance of breeding heat-tolerant cultivars, and assess the biochemical, physiological, and molecular pathways involved in seed germination under high temperatures. In a nutshell, a concentrated effort is required to raise cotton's heat tolerance due to the rising global temperatures and the rise in the frequency of extreme weather occurrences. Furthermore, emerging advances in sequencing technologies have made major progress toward successfully se sequencing the complex cotton genome.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":16808,"journal":{"name":"Journal of plant physiology","volume":"302 ","pages":"Article 154324"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142011742","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, irrigation can pose challenges such as mineral scarcity and salt accumulation in the soil, which negatively impact plant growth and crop productivity. While numerous studies have focused on enhancing plant tolerance to high salinity, research targeting various ecotypes of <em>Arabidopsis thaliana</em> has been relatively limited. In this study, we aimed to identify salt-tolerant ecotypes among the diverse wild types of <em>Arabidopsis thaliana</em> and elucidate their characteristics at the molecular level. As a result, we found that Catania-1 (Ct-1), one of the ecotypes of Arabidopsis, exhibits greater salt tolerance compared to Col-0. Specifically, Ct-1 exhibited less damage from reactive oxygen species (ROS) than Col-0, despite not accumulating antioxidants like anthocyanins. Additionally, Ct-1 accumulated more potassium ions (K⁺) in its shoots and roots than Col-0 under high salinity, which is crucial for water balance and preventing dehydration. In contrast, Ct-1 plants were observed to accumulate slightly lower levels of Na⁺ than Col-0 in both root and shoot tissues, regardless of salt treatment. These findings suggest that Ct-1 plants achieve high salinity resistance not by extruding more Na⁺ than Col-0, but rather by absorbing more K⁺ or releasing less K⁺. Ct-1 exhibited higher nitrate (NO₃^-) levels than Col-0 under high salinity conditions, which is associated with enhanced retention of K⁺ ions. Additionally, genes involved in NO₃^- transport and uptake, such as <em>NRT1.5</em> and <em>NPF2.3</em>, showed higher transcript levels in Ct-1 compared to Col-0 when exposed to high salinity. However, Ct-1 did not demonstrate significantly greater resistance to osmotic stress compared to Col-0. These findings suggest that enhancing plant tolerance to salt stress could involve targeting the cellular processes responsible for regulating the transport of NO₃^- and K⁺. Overall, our study sheds light on the mechanisms of plant salinity tolerance, emphasizing the importance of K⁺ and NO₃^- transport in crop improvement and food security in regions facing salinity stress.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":16808,"journal":{"name":"Journal of plant physiology","volume":"302 ","pages":"Article 154321"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141906876","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
