The results revealed that fruits harvested from the plants treated with silver-black mulch exhibited better quality parameters compared to paddy straw, black, and red mulch treatments. With the progression of maturation, fruits developed higher light to dark red pericarp and juice colour coordinates, TSS/acid , ascorbic acid, juice pH, sugars and anthocyanin content. A decline in fruit juice acidity, chlorophyll, carotenoid, phenol, polyphenol oxidase, and flavonoids parameters was observed up to final fruit harvest stages. Correlation and regression analyses showed the complex matrices governing strawberry attributes by unveiling the interdependence of various fruit quality parameters.

The phytoremediation using tree species has been preferred over annual crops as they produce higher biomass and accumulate heavy metals for prolonged period. <i>Toona ciliata</i> M. Roem is a large perennial tree, known to produce high biomass in short rotation, can be used for phytoremediation experiments due to their alternative use in versatile timber production and absence of linkage with food chain. Thus, present investigations were conducted to untap the potential of <i>T. ciliata</i> grown on lead and cadmium contaminated soils during two constitutive years 2020–21. Regarding <i>T. ciliata</i> raised on soils treated with different concentrations of Pb, Cd, and their combinations for six months, the results depicted that plants accumulated higher concentrations of metals in shoots than roots having bioconcentration factor (BCF) and translocation factor (TF) more than one, indicating that plants have efficient metal translocation and accumulation capability. Further, heavy metal tolerance index and survival percentage (&gt; 85%) denote the plant’s ability to tolerate heavy metals up to 300 mgPb/kg and 25 mgCd/kg. Anatomical changes induced due to heavy metals include reduced root area as well as vascular bundle area as compared to control, also reduced stomatal pore size and increased stomatal index and trichome density suggesting the plant’s adaptive response under heavy metal stress. Furthermore, distinct accumulation patterns of lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) in various tissues of both leaves and roots were meticulously identified and validated through the use of cutting-edge techniques like Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy and Energy-Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (FESEM-EDS), which reflects that plant had strong enrichment ability for Pb accumulation in roots and more Cd translocation, accumulation and sequestration in aerial tissues.

In this context, we have characterized the behavior of <i>D. asper</i> seeds stored under varying temperatures in the medium to long term and evaluated the behavior of reserve material throughout storage. Moreover, a simplified protocol for the cryopreservation of seeds was developed. Seeds with 11% moisture content were stored at 25 (control), 6, − 20 and – 196 °C for 0, 30, 90, 180, 360, and 600 days. After each storage period, the seeds were inoculated in vitro for germination and then the obtained plants were acclimatized. During the storage periods of 0, 360, and 600 days, seed samples were collected for biochemical analyses. In a second step, seeds were desiccated, and a portion of the seeds was placed to germinate in vitro, while a second portion was immersed in liquid nitrogen (− 196 °C) for 48 h. After this period, the cryopreserved seeds were thawed and inoculated in culture medium for germination. <i>D. asper</i> seeds were found to maintain viability for up to 600 days when stored at − 20 °C and – 196 °C, producing normal, whole plants. At 6 °C, the seeds can only be kept for up to 360 days. At 25 °C, there is a decrease in viability at 360 days and a marked reduction in germination at 600 days, in addition to abnormal plant development. The analysis of the biochemical composition of the seeds revealed starch as the main reserve material, followed by proteins and, in smaller amounts, lipids. Desiccation of seeds for up to 144 h resulted in a moisture content of about 5%. At this humidity, the seeds showed no differences in germinability for either the control treatment or cryopreserved seeds.

In recent years, the quality and phytochemical content of various fruits have been improved using plant growth regulators both before and after harvest. They play a significant role in improving the quality and biochemical composition of different fruit crops, including fruit peel colour, accumulation of anthocyanins, phenolic compounds, and antioxidant activities in the fruit. Further, the fruit ripening process is also accelerated by the application of jasmonate as it influences different physiological and molecular mechanisms of the plant system including regulation of the activities of different hormones during the entire period of fruit growth and development starting from fruit set to till ripening, activation of genes related to ripening, etc. In the case of apples, pre-harvest application of MeJA leads to enhanced fruit coloration by stimulating the anthocyanin biosynthesis gene <i>MdUFGluT</i>. The concentration of JA increases significantly during the early fruit development stage but then decreases sharply, reaching its lowest level when the fruits are fully ripe which signifies its role in initiating the fruit ripening process. Jasmonates can also induce the expression of genes related to ethylene synthesis and promote the production of ethylene gas. Application of jasmonates at the pre-climacteric stage increased the expression of 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate synthase 1 (ACS 1) and 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-Carboxylic Acid Oxidase1 (ACO 1) genes. However, the accumulation of ACS1 mRNA decreased when Propyl Dihydro Jasmonate was applied at the climacteric stage, indicating that jasmonates influence system 2 ethylene synthesis pathway. In addition, these two compounds (MeJA and JA) are safe for human consumption; hence, can be applied at the commercial level to improve the fruit quality and ripening process in different fruit crops.

Results showed that applying 2 mM Si alleviated elongation inhibition of soybean roots exposed to 100 or 200 µM Al for 24 h. Si application increased citrate exudation from roots under Al exposure, thereby reducing Al accumulation. Furthermore, Si promoted citrate synthesis through activating citrate synthase and inhibiting aconitase under Al stress. Quantitative real-time PCR assay showed that Si enhanced the expression level of citrate transporter genes (<i>GmMATE13</i> and <i>GmMATE47</i>) under Al stress. In addition, Si supply reduced Al content in cell wall and in cell wall polysaccharides (pectin and hemicellulose 1) under Al exposure. Meanwhile, Si addition decreased the contents of pectin and hemicellulose 1, which were the main binding sites for Al in cell wall, under Al exposure. Furthermore, Si increased the degree of pectin methylesterification by inhibiting pectin methylesterase activity under Al stress, thereby reducing the ability of pectin to bind Al. These results suggest that Si can promote citrate efflux by regulating the synthesis and transport of citrate, thus chelating the toxic Al cations and alleviating Al toxicity. Besides, Si can also regulate the cell wall properties to reduce Al deposition in the cell wall of root tip, thereby improving Al tolerance of soybean.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":6973,"journal":{"name":"Acta Physiologiae Plantarum","volume":"47 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142761985","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}
