Application of Plant Biostimulants as New Approach to Improve the Biological Responses of Medicinal Plants- A Critical Review

Journal of Medicinal Plants, 2016
The aim of this review was to represent a category of applied plant biostimulants and to highlight the effect of their application on morphological and phytochemical properties of medicinal plants in in vivo and in vitro conditions and their mechanism of

Chlorantraniliprole: bioactivation in coffee seedlings and control of resistant Leucoptera coffeella populations

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Chlorantraniliprole enhanced growth and biomass in coffee seedlings infested by susceptible Leucoptera coffeella, while resistant populations limited its insecticidal performance. These findings emphasize both the bioactivator potential of chlorantraniliprole and the challenges of managing resistance in coffee leaf miner control.

Does Chemical Use Mitigate or Exacerbate Production Risk? Evidence From Conventional Maize Farms in Northern Italy

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the relationships between chemical use, namely fertilisers and pesticides, and the production risk of conventional maize in Northern Italy. Using data from the Italian Farm Accountancy Data Network for the period 2015–2020, merged with a station‐based weather dataset, we analyse the production risk through moments of farm ...

A TAF10‐ERF109 Transcriptional Module Directs Flavonoid‐Based Stress Resilience and Yield Enhancement in Foxtail Millet and Wheat

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To ensure sustainable agricultural production under escalating environmental constraints such as drought and salinity, innovative strategies are urgently needed. Here, we reveal in foxtail millet (Setaria italica) that transcription factors TAF10 and ERF109 form a functional complex which co‐activates the expression of key flavonoid ...

The TaCOMT1A‐Synthesised Sakuranetin Is a Novel Biostimulant Enhancing Drought Tolerance and Yield in Wheat

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drought stress is a major limitation to global wheat production. Here, we demonstrate that the wheat gene TaCOMT1A, encoding a caffeic acid O‐methyltransferase, plays a crucial role in enhancing drought tolerance in wheat. Overexpression of TaCOMT1A significantly improved drought tolerance at the seedling stage, as evidenced by higher survival

Sugars as Central Integrators of Plant Immunity and Stress Responses

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sugars are fundamental metabolites that sustain plant growth and development, but accumulating evidence demonstrates that they also function as regulatory hubs in plant defence. In this review, we synthesise current knowledge on how carbohydrate dynamics coordinate metabolism, signalling, and structural responses to shape plant resistance ...

Integrated Approach of Using Biostimulants for Improving Growth, Physiological Traits, and Tolerance to Abiotic Stressors in Rice and Soybean

Agronomy
Abiotic stressors such as drought, salinity, waterlogging, and high and low temperatures significantly reduce the growth and productivity of rice (Oryza sativa) and soybean (Glycine max), which are vital for global food and nutritional security.

Exogenous IAA application alleviated altered physiological and biochemical processes through promoting H‐ATPase and Fe chelate reductase activities in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) subjected to iron deficiency

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Exogenous IAA supply enhances the strategy I response in common bean under iron deficiency. Abstract Iron deficiency is a common nutritional disorder observed in calcareous soils, where its resolution by classical methods has shown its failure. However, the exploitation of certain potentialities possessed by crops (rhizosphere acidification, H‐ATPase ...
