The unsaturated FAs found in sunflower oil mainly include oleic acid (OA, C18:1) and linoleic acid (LOA, C18:2). OA’s antioxidant activity makes sunflower oil with high health value and suitable for storage. However, molecular mechanisms underlying differences in OA accumulation between high- and low-oleate sunflower varieties in seed development remain unexplored. Here, to identify key OA synthesis-related proteins, isobaric tag for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) was performed. Ultimately, 592 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) (233 upregulated, 359 downregulated) were identified between high-oleate (‘L-1-OL-1’) and low-oleate (‘86–1’) maintainer lines. KEGG enrichment analysis of DEPs identified biosynthesis of unsaturated FAs as the most highly enriched biological pathway. Subsequently, combined transcriptome and proteome analysis results suggested that several proteins in this pathway might influence final seed OA content, including FAD2 (Δ12 fatty acid desaturase). Notably, FAD2 expression was significantly downregulated in ‘L-1-OL-1’ versus ‘86–1’ seeds, with results aligning with <i>FAD2</i> mRNA expression results determined via qRT-PCR analysis. These findings and understanding of OA synthesis mechanisms could help improve oil quality through breeding and germplasm-based efforts in sunflower.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":6973,"journal":{"name":"Acta Physiologiae Plantarum","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142524376","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Glutathione (GSH) is a well-known antioxidant that promotes plant growth by protecting it from abiotic stresses including heavy metal toxicity. Although much has been documented about the role of glutathione in securing plants from stress, its role in safeguarding wheat growth under mercury (Hg) and arsenic (As) stresses is unknown. The present work investigates wheat responses to Hg and As stresses under the exogenous application of GSH. The result showed that Hg and As stresses greatly reduced seed germination and seedling growth such as root/shoot length and fresh weight. Photosynthetic pigments, i.e., chlorophyll a, b, and carotenoid were reduced. However, the H₂O₂ and lipid peroxidation levels were increased under Hg and As stresses in wheat seedlings. The antioxidant enzymatic activities such SOD, POD, and APX increased, while CAT activity decreased under Hg and As stresses. Importantly, the application of 2 mM GSH alone or in combination with Hg and As enhanced seed germination rate, root/shoot length, fresh weight, and photosynthetic pigments in wheat. Contrarily, the level of H₂O₂ and lipid peroxidation were decreased under the individual and combined treatment of Hg + GSH and As + GSH. The antioxidant enzymatic activities such as SOD, POD, and APX were lowered, while CAT activity was enhanced by GSH under Hg and As stress. The present research concludes that supplementation of exogenous GSH can play a significant role in fostering the sensitivity of wheat to Hg and As stress by reducing oxidative stress and modulating the levels of antioxidant enzymes.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":6973,"journal":{"name":"Acta Physiologiae Plantarum","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142434931","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study tested the hypothesis that priming rice plants (cv. BRS AG) improves sugar metabolism and transport in the grain-filling stage through memory effects. We investigated physiological changes, including source–sink parameters, carbohydrate metabolism, gene expression, and vascular adjustments. Rice plants were exposed to 150 mM salt stress during either the V5 vegetative and/or R7–R8 reproductive stages, with samples collected after 7 days of stress and after 2 days of recovery. Our findings reveal that primed plants had a more favorable Na⁺/K⁺ ratio in roots, experienced less leaf stress, and showed increased phloem area and reduced metaxylem area under salt stress. Notably, primed plants maintained stable plant height and shoot dry mass during the grain-filling stage. These results support the hypothesis that salt priming in the vegetative stage alters the responses to subsequent salt exposure, improving ionic homeostasis and sucrose transport, which mitigates salt-stress effects. Priming also influenced the expansion of conducting vessels in leaves and roots, contributing to shoot growth. Enhanced vascular characteristics and the regulation of sucrose and triose-phosphate transporters likely facilitated better carbohydrate remobilization to develop grain production potential. These insights into salt stress memory mechanisms highlight strategies to improve rice yield under challenging environmental conditions.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":6973,"journal":{"name":"Acta Physiologiae Plantarum","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142434882","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Brazilian sour orange and Gadha dahi showed heat stress tolerance through maintaining plant growth, retention of root and shoot moisture contents, higher photosynthetic pigments and leaf water potential. Higher moisture contents of root and shoot were recorded (66.00 ± 1.1% and 73.00 ± 0.94%) in Brazilian sour orange at moderate levels of stress respectively.

Under moderate and severe stress conditions the lowest chlorophyll a content was recorded in Kirrumakki nucellar (2.20 ± 0.05 mg/g) and Brazilian sour orange (1.32 ± 0.05 mg/g) respectively, due to reduced photosynthetic pigment, thylakoid membrane damage and alteration of chloroplast. Higher H₂O₂ and proline production were indication of tolerant rootstock to heat stress in Brazilian sour orange and Gadha dahi. Two highly tolerant (Brazilian sour orange and Gadha dahi) and two highly sensitive rootstocks (Rangpur poona nucellar and Sunki Bentake) from the experiment were selected for stem and leaf anatomical observations. Brazilian sour orange under heat stress was characterized with thicker cell epidermis which reduce the transpiration and evaporation losses in addition to having higher vascular bundle, xylem, and phloem length. These anatomical modifications ensured the transport of water and nutrients across the plant body which helped in maintaining plant vigor and growth.
