Variances in auxin (IAA) content between straight and bending cultivars have been noted, yet the underlying mechanism remains elusive. Here, we treated the bending cultivar ‘Qi Hualushuang’ with 150 mg·L⁻¹ IAA across five developmental stages, examining morphological, anatomical, and cellulose metabolism-related changes. The results showed that exogenous IAA significantly improved stem straightness, plant height, and stem diameter. This improvement coincided with the early development of vascular tissue at the early and mid-stage of stem growth. IAA application down-regulated the expression of cellulose synthase genes, altering sucrose synthase and cellulase activities, ultimately resulting in higher cellulose content during the bud-breeding stage. Notably, an early accumulation of cellulose in vascular tissue was observed, characterized by earlier and more orderly arranged cellulose microfibrils, oriented at a smaller angle to the growth direction. This observation suggests that early cellulose development is advantageous for achieving stem straightness. Our study also found that the promotional effect of IAA on stem growth was mainly in the early stages, and other phytohormones may be jointly involved in the regulation. In summary, our study suggests that IAA enhances stem straightness by modulating the development of cell wall cellulose and vascular tissue. These findings provide a theoretical basis for the cultivation and trait improvement of <i>P. lactiflora</i> cut flower cultivars.</p>","PeriodicalId":16842,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Plant Growth Regulation","volume":"1 5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142220205","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}

In plants, GABA was found to be a signaling molecule after the discovery of its binding sites. GABA metabolism takes place through the GABA shunt. It occurs in mitochondria and bypasses two steps of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. It is also produced via proline and polyamine metabolic pathways. Both abiotic and biotic stress conditions affect plant’s growth and development. These stresses impact respiration and energy production in mitochondria, resulting in the elevated production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which ultimately leads to cell death. The synthesis of GABA aids in the restoration of respiratory processes and energy production. Its accumulation is observed during plant stress conditions. In stress conditions, GABA concentration increases which raises the tolerance level of plants. It mitigates ROS formation, improves photosynthetic machinery, regulates the opening of stomata, and activates antioxidant enzymes. The transport of GABA is crucial for its functioning throughout plants, making it important to understand its cell and organelle transport.

Accordingly, a two-year field experiment was conducted to examine the effects of carbon quantum dots on physiological efficiency of soybean plants under drought stress. The carbon quantum dots were applied as a foliar treatment at a concentration of 5 mg L⁻¹ on soybean plants under normal and water-stress conditions. The results showed that the application of carbon quantum dots did not have a noticeable impact on the physiological performance of plants under regular irrigation. However, under drought stress, carbon quantum dots significantly improved various parameters, including soybean ground green cover (about 14%), leaf area (21%), chlorophyll content (18%), maximum efficiency of photosystem II (19%), relative photosynthetic electron transport rate (23%), leaf water content, osmolyte production, antioxidative activities, and grain yield (25%). Additionally, carbon quantum dots reduced the generation of reactive oxygen species, lipid peroxidation, and osmotic stress during drought conditions. These findings suggest that carbon quantum dots can protect plant cells from oxidative and osmotic damage, thereby enhancing physiological performance during periods of drought stress. These results reveal the potential of CQDs as a promising tool for enhancing drought tolerance in soybean plants, with implications extending beyond this crop. The mechanistic insights highlighted the broader applicability of CQD treatments in agriculture, offering a novel strategy to mitigate drought stress across diverse crop species.

This study investigated the potential of enhancing TBS resistance through root irrigation with SO₂ derivatives and elucidates the underlying mechanisms. Our findings revealed that SO₂ derivative root irrigation significantly enhanced tobacco resistance to TBS. This was evidenced by reduced malondialdehyde levels, increased hydrogen peroxide accumulation, and elevated activities of antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase and peroxidase. Moreover, analyses of phytohormones—jasmonic acid (JA), salicylic acid, abscisic acid, and ethylene—indicated a notable increase in endogenous JA levels in SO₂-pretreated plants. The application of the JA biosynthesis inhibitor diethyldithiocarbamate acid (DIECA) significantly decreased JA levels and attenuated the SO₂-induced TBS resistance. Furthermore, transcription of several JA-responsive defense genes was significantly upregulated in SO₂-pretreated plants during <i>P. nicotianae</i> infection. These results demonstrate that SO₂ application elevates endogenous JA levels, thereby activating the antioxidant defense system and enhancing TBS resistance in tobacco plants.
