However, the chemical nature and involvement of strawberry <i>STP</i>s (<i>FaSTP</i>s) in crown rot development is largely elusive. To reveal how strawberry alters soluble sugars and upregulates <i>STP</i>s in responses to <i>C. fructicola</i>, high performance liquid chromatograph and <i>FaSTP</i> expression analysis were performed in the crowns of three strawberry varieties, following a genome-wide identification of <i>FaSTP</i>s.

A total of 56 <i>FaSTP</i> loci scattered across four subgenomes were identified in octoploid strawberry, and most of the protein products of these genes had a preferential location on plasma membrane.

MicroRNAs are known to play an important role in post-transcriptional gene regulation. Here, the aim was to study the effect of abiotic stresses on the <i>Stevia</i> plantlets and then to identify and validate the expression of the conserved microRNAs and their targets under abiotic stress conditions. The effect of dehydration, salinity and cold stress treatment on 7-week-old <i>Stevia</i> plantlets was analyzed. Plant growth, relative water content, malondialdehyde content and antioxidant activity were greatly affected under stress treatment. In the present investigation, amongst the various abiotic stresses studied, 9% PEG treatment greatly affected the <i>Stevia</i> plantlets. To identify the microRNAs, BLAST analysis was performed. A homology search of known miRNAs from the PMRD database against non-redundant <i>Stevia</i> genomic sequences resulted in the prediction of 37 conserved miRNAs and their targets were identified using the psRNATarget server. All the predicted miRNAs had lengths of 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, and 25 nucleotides, respectively. The identified potential conserved miRNAs belong to 34 distinct miRNA families. The highest potential miRNAs are represented by miR169 family followed by miR156, miR172, and miR396 families. Promoter analysis of miRNA-targets genes revealed the presence of numerous <i>cis</i>-acting regulatory elements involved in hormonal and stress-response mechanisms. Further, expression analysis revealed an inverse correlation between the selected identified miRNAs and their targets under abiotic stress treatments. Identifying stress-responsive miRNAs and their targets will help us understand the molecular mechanisms of stress tolerance in <i>Stevia.</i></p><p><strong>Supplementary information: </strong>The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s12298-024-01527-5.</p>","PeriodicalId":20148,"journal":{"name":"Physiology and Molecular Biology of Plants","volume":"30 11","pages":"1795-1818"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11646260/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142838817","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the roles of <i>OsNAC15</i> in rice drought and salt tolerance are largely unknown. In this study, we characterized a nuclear-localized NAC TF in rice, <i>OsNAC15</i>, that positively regulates drought and salt tolerance and directly participates in the biosynthesis of abscisic acid (ABA). Drought and salt treatment significantly induce the expression of <i>OsNAC15.</i> Loss of <i>OsNAC15</i> could made plants more sensitive to drought and salt stress and led to the accumulation of more H₂O₂ and malondialdehyde (MDA) in vivo after drought and salt stress, while overexpression of <i>OsNAC15</i> in plants showed stronger tolerance to drought and salt stress. Results of yeast one-hybrid assay and dual-luciferase (LUC) assay revealed that OsNAC15 interacted with the promoters of nine-cis-epoxycarotenoid dehydrogenases (NCEDs) genes (<i>OsNCED1, OsNCED2</i> and <i>OsNCED5</i>), which are essential genes for ABA biosynthesis in rice, and promoted the expression of these target genes. In summary, our study reveals that OsNAC15, a NAC TF, may enhance drought and salt tolerance in rice by activating the promoters of key ABA biosynthesis genes (<i>OsNCED1, OsNCED2</i> and <i>OsNCED5</i>).

In contrast, reproductive growth improved, with the 20 ppm 2,4-D spray treatment boosting yield by 627.06% compared to the control. Furthermore, the 30 ppm 2,4-D spray produced the highest single fruit weight, a 69.16% increase over the control. However, exogenous hormones also caused fruit cracking, with the highest rate (55.5%) in the 20 ppm 2,4-D spray treatment. As for fruit quality, glucose content decreased, while fructose and sucrose levels significantly increased in hormone-treated fruits compared to the control. No significant differences were observed in flavonoid, total phenol, or vitamin C content. Transcriptome sequencing showed that 16,836 genes were significantly downregulated in pepino flower buds 72 h after a 30 ppm 4-CPA spray. KEGG enrichment analysis suggested that 4-CPA regulates parthenocarpy by influencing amino acid and protein synthesis pathways. Applying plant growth regulators in different concentrations and methods significantly impacts pepino's growth, yield, and fruit quality.

In China, <i>S. tonkinensis</i> is mainly grown naturally on limestone mountains or is cultivated artificially in arable land. Heavy metal contamination in agricultural soil, particularly cadmium (Cd), poses serious threats to soil health, as well as the growth and productivity of <i>S. tonkinensis</i>. However, information regarding the physiological and metabolic mechanism of <i>S. tonkinensis</i> under Cd toxicity conditions remains limited. In this study, a hydroponic experiment was conducted to investigate the physiological and metabolic responses of <i>S. tonkinensis</i> to varying concentrations of Cd (0, 20, 40, 60, 80 μM), designated as T0, T1, T2, T3, and T4 respectively. The results indicated that the Cd stress significantly impaired the growth and physiological activity of <i>S. tonkinensis</i>. Specifically, reductions were observed in plant height (15.3% to 37.1%) along with shoot fresh weight (9.6% to 36.3%), shoot dry weight (8.2% to 34.1%), root fresh weight (6.7% to 38.2%) and root dry weight (5.1% to 51.3%). This impairment was attributed to a higher uptake and accumulation of Cd in the roots. The decrease in growth was closely linked to the increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which led to cellular damage under Cd toxicity; however, increased antioxidant enzyme activities improved the stress tolerance of <i>S. tonkinensis</i>'s stress to Cd toxicity. Non-targeted metabolomic analyses identified 380 differential metabolites (DMs) in the roots of <i>S. tonkinensis</i> subjected to varying level of Cd stress, including amino acids, organic acids, fatty acids, ketones, and others compounds. Further KEGG pathway enrichment analysis revealed that several pathways, such as ABC transporters, isoflavonoid biosynthesis, and pyrimidine metabolism were involved in the response to Cd. Notably, the isoflavonoid biosynthesis pathway was significantly enriched in both T0 vs. T2 and T0 vs. the higher level (80 μM) of Cd stress, highlighting its significance in the plant responses to Cd stress.

Therefore, the rhizosphere bacterial community dynamics and plant growth for wheat were investigated under different levels of soil Cd contamination in accordance with risk control standard for soil contamination of agricultural land. The results showed that there was no significant difference in transport coefficient of Cd in wheat plants grown in different levels of soil Cd contamination conditions. Soil Cd contamination led to a decrease in soil pH value and an increase in exchangeable Cd content in rhizosphere soil. Although rhizosphere bacterial richness and diversity had no significant difference between soil Cd contamination conditions, as its community composition changed significantly. Under Cd contamination of risk screening value, Actinobacteria, Chloroflexi, and Nitrospira showed higher abundance, but Bacteroidetes, Patescibacteria, Sphingomonas, ADurbBin063-1 and Bryobacter were more prevalent under Cd contamination of risk intervention value. The enrichment of Patescibacteria, Proteobacteria and Acidobacteria was beneficial for Cd fixation, while Nitrospira enhanced nutrient uptake and utilization. Furthermore, Cd contamination with risk screening value enhanced the relationship among rhizosphere bacterial communities, and Cd contamination with risk intervention value increased the cooperative relationship among rhizosphere bacterial species. Additionally, soil Cd content showed a significantly positive correlation with Patescibacteria and ADurbBin063-1, and a significantly negative correlation with pH.
