Tomato is a major cultivated vegetable species of great economic importance throughout the world, but its fruit yield is severely impaired by drought stress. PopW, a harpin protein from Ralstonia solanacearum ZJ3721, plays vital roles in various plant defence responses and growth. In this study, we observed that the foliar application of PopW increased tomato drought tolerance. Our results showed that compared with water-treated plants, PopW-treated plants presented a significantly higher recovery rate and leaf relative water content under drought-stress conditions. PopW decreased the malondialdehyde content and relative electrical conductivity by 40.2% and 21%, respectively. Drought disrupts redox homeostasis through the excessive accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). PopW-treated plants displayed an obvious reduction in ROS accumulation due to enhanced activities of the antioxidant enzyme catalase, superoxide dismutase and peroxidase. Moreover, PopW promoted early stomatal closure, thereby minimizing the water loss rate of plants under drought stress. Further investigation revealed that endogenous abscisic acid (ABA) levels and the transcript levels of drought-responsive genes involved in ABA signal transduction pathways increased in response to PopW. These results confirm that PopW increases drought tolerance through multiple mechanisms involving an enhanced water-retention capacity, balanced redox homeostasis, increased osmotic adjustment, reduced membrane damage and decreased stomatal aperture, suggesting that the application of exogenous PopW may be a potential method to enhance tomato drought tolerance.Auxins (Aux) are primary growth regulators that regulate almost every aspect of growth and development in plants. It plays a vital role in various plant processes besides controlling the key aspects of cell division, cell expansion, and cell differentiation. Considering the significance of Aux, and its potential applications, a study was conducted to observe the impact of indole acetic acid (IAA), a most active and abundant form of Aux on Brassica juncea plants growing under natural environmental conditions. Different concentrations (0, 10-10, 10-8, 10-6 M) of IAA were applied once in a day at 25-day stage of growth for 5 days, consecutively. Various parameters (growth, photosynthetic, biochemical, oxidative biomarkers and nutrient composition) were assessed at different days after sowing (DAS). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of leaf stomata, reactive oxygen species (ROS) localization in leaf and roots, and confocal microscopy were also conducted. The results revealed that all the IAA concentrations were effective in growth promotion and ROS reduction, however, the 10-8 M of IAA exhibited the maximum improvement in all the above mentioned parameters as compared to the control.The present study aims at the amelioration of chromium Cr(VI) toxicity using ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), and to understand the interactive effects of Cr(VI) and EDTA with respect to seedling growth, lipid peroxidation as assessed from malondialdehyde, pigments and antioxidative enzymes in Hordeum vulgare L. Following multivariate statistical techniques were used to study binary interactions between Cr(VI) and EDTA 2-way ANOVA, Tukey's multiple comparison test, multiple regression with interaction between Cr an EDTA, beta coefficients, path analysis and non-metric multidimensional scaling (NMDS). The present study revealed that the EDTA decreases lipid peroxidation induced by Cr(VI) and ameliorates the antioxidative defence system and pigment constitution of seedlings grown in Cr(VI) containing media. EDTA-Cr(VI) interaction decreased the Cr content in the seedlings which may be attributed to the chelating effect of EDTA. The root and shoot bioconcentration factors, the ratio of Cr content in the plant to that in the medium, were decreased by addition of EDTA to Cr(VI), indicating a decrease in the uptake of Cr by the seedlings from the medium. NMDS revealed that the ranking of the studied parameters is maintained by ordination on two axes. The study established that EDTA is antagonistic to Cr(VI) induced biochemical toxicity, and improves the antioxidative defence system, increases the chlorophyll content, and decreases Cr uptake in barley seedlings.Rice grain yield is drastically reduced under low light especially in kharif (wet) season due to cloudy weather during most part of crop growth. Therefore, 50-60% of yield penalty was observed. To overcome this problem, identification of low light tolerant rice genotypes with a high buffering capacity trait such as photosynthetic rate has to be developed. Sedoheptulose-1,7 bisphosphatase, a light-regulated enzyme, plays pivotal role in the Calvin cycle by regenerating the substrate (RuBP) for RuBisCo and therefore, indirectly regulates the influx of CO2 for this crucial process. We found a potential role of SBPase expression and activity in low light tolerant and susceptible rice genotypes by analyzing its influence on net photosynthetic rate and biomass. We observed a significant relationship of yield with photosynthesis, SBPase expression and activity especially under low light conditions. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/as601245.html Two tolerant and two susceptible rice genotypes were used for the present study. Tolerant genotypes exhibited significant but least reduction compared to susceptible genotypes in the expression and activity of SBPase, which was also manifested in its photosynthetic rate and finally in the grain yield under low light. However, susceptible genotypes showed significant reduction in SBPase activity along with photosynthesis and grain yield suggesting that tracking the expression and activity of SBPase could form a simple and reliable method to identify the low light tolerant rice cultivars. The data were analyzed using the Indostat 7.5, Tukey-Kramer method through Microsoft Excel 2019 and PAST4.0 software. The significant association of SBPase activity with the grain yield, net assimilation rate, electron transfer rate, biomass and grain weight were observed under low light stress. These traits should be considered while selecting and breeding for low light tolerant cultivars. Thus, SBPase plays a major role in the low light tolerance mechanism in rice.
