To mitigate the detrimental effect of drought, biostimulants like <em>Ascophyllum nodosum</em> extract (ANE) and alginic acid (AA) are increasingly used, as they have demonstrated growth-promoting effects on plant. This study was designed to delve into the role of ANE and AA on drought affected rapeseed (<em>Brassica campestris</em> cv. BARI Sarisha-17). Moreover, the study gives a comparative illustration of ANE and one of its principal polysaccharide components AA and explores AA's ability to mimic or surpass the effects of the complete extract. Drought was applied from 15 days after sowing (DAS) by keeping soil moisture level at 25 % field capacity. The control plants were irrigated as per requirement with water. Foliar spraying of ANE (0.02 %) and AA (0.02 %) were initiated after plant establishment. Data on different morphophysiological and biochemical parameters were collected at 35 DAS. Water deficit condition reduced plant growth, biomass accumulation, water balance and chlorophyll pigments. It notably increased oxidative damage by increasing lipid peroxidation, hydrogen peroxide content, proline content, electrolyte leakage, and disrupting glyoxalase system which elevated reactive oxygen species in plants by suppressing antioxidants enzyme activities. Conversely, application of ANE and AA substantially alleviated the detrimental consequences of drought stress with AA being slightly more effective than ANE, by uplifting water balance and redox levels of ascorbate and glutathione. The activities of antioxidant defense and glyoxalase pathway enzymes were also enhanced by exogenous ANE and AA. Both ANE and AA enhanced drought tolerance but it was observed that foliar spraying of AA performed better by reducing oxidative damage and improving antioxidant enzyme activities over plants treated with ANE. These improvements play a crucial role in strengthening rapeseed's resistance to drought conditions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":20234,"journal":{"name":"Plant Physiology and Biochemistry","volume":"227 ","pages":"Article 110198"},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144534212","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This investigation systematically evaluated the efficacy of FeO-NPs in ameliorating NaCl-induced stress (150 mM) in peanut (<em>Arachis hypogaea</em> L.) through foliar application of nanoparticle gradients (0, 25, 50, 100 mg/kg), with particular emphasis on photosynthetic apparatus protection and redox homeostasis regulation.

Here, we integrated genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of 334 diverse wheat accessions with comparative transcriptomic analysis of drought-sensitive and drought-tolerant genotypes. GWAS identified 45 significant SNPs (−log10(<em>p</em>) &gt; 3.5) and 281 candidate genes linked to seedling dry weight loss under drought stress. Transcriptome profiling revealed 821 differentially expressed genes, with co-expression network analysis uncovering 21 drought-responsive long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) and their target genes. These targets were enriched in ubiquitin-mediated protein degradation and transcriptional regulation pathways. Notably, lncRNA XR_006461531 was predicted to interact with <em>TaFBX361</em>—a gene co-identified by GWAS and RNA-seq—via a lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA interaction. Functional validation through virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) demonstrated that knockdown of <em>TaFBX361</em> significantly impaired plant growth and increased oxidative damage under drought, confirming its positive role in stress adaptation. Our findings reveal coordinated coding and noncoding regulatory modules governing drought responses in wheat, with <em>TaFBX361</em> emerging as a promising genetic target for enhancing drought resilience. This study advances the molecular breeding toolkit by integrating multi-omics approaches to dissect complex traits, offering novel insights into lncRNA-mediated regulatory networks in crop abiotic stress tolerance.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":20234,"journal":{"name":"Plant Physiology and Biochemistry","volume":"227 ","pages":"Article 110190"},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144510773","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
