Foliar Application of Zinc Improves Safflower Yields More than Glycine Betaine

Agronomy
In arid regions, yields from safflower plants are appreciably lower than normal. Foliar application of zinc or glycine betaine has been reported to increase yields in other grown crops. A field experiment was conducted to compare the specific effects and

Effects of dopamine on reducing salt stress damage in pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) at morphological, physiological, biochemical, and molecular levels

Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 189, Issue 1, July 2026.
Salt stress causes oxidative and osmotic stress, resulting in decreased nutrient uptake, plant growth, and photosynthetic rate. This study suggests that foliar application of dopamine can reduce salinity‐induced oxidative damage in pepper plants by altering antioxidant activity, biochemical, and molecular responses.

Combined Effects of Water Shortage and CO2 Enrichment on Yield and Water Use Properties of Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) Genotypes

Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science, Volume 212, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT A selection of winter barley genotypes was investigated for their responses to water shortage under different CO2 concentrations in a greenhouse. The experiment was conducted in a 2*2 factorial design. Plants were grown either with optimum water supply or simulated drought in the BBCH 59 stage at current (~400 ppm CO2) or elevated CO2 ...

Glycine Betaine Recognition through Cation−π Interactions in Crystal Structures of Glycine Betaine Complexes with C-Ethyl-pyrogallol[4]arene and C-Ethyl-resorcin[4]arene as Receptors

Crystals, 2013
The glycine betaine (betaine), interacts with several types of proteins with diverse structures in vivo, and in the contact regions, the aromatic rings of protein residues are frequently found beside the trimethylammonium group of betaine, implying the ...

Deciphering Cold Stress Resilience: Multiomics Insights in Contrasting Wheat Genotypes From the Western Himalayas

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 7, Page 4577-4598, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Cold stress threatens wheat productivity, particularly in regions with extreme climatic conditions. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying wheat's response to cold stress, we performed a multiomics analysis integrating lipidomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics.

Enhancing Tolerance to Combined Heat and Drought Stress in Cool‐Season Grain Legumes: Mechanisms, Genetic Insights, and Future Directions

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 7, Page 3848-3870, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The increasing frequency of concurrent heat and drought stress poses a significant challenge to agricultural productivity, particularly for cool‐season grain legumes, including broad bean (Vicia Faba L.), lupin (Lupinus spp.), lentil (Lens culinaris Medik), chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), grasspea (Lathyrus sativus L.), pea (Pisum sativum L ...

Drought and Herbivory Drive Physiological and Phytohormonal Changes in Soybean (Glycine max Merril): Insights From a Meta‐Analysis

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 7, Page 4041-4053, July 2026.
ABSTRACT With climate change, abiotic and biotic stresses such as drought and herbivory are predicted to further diminish agricultural productivity. Soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merrill), a crop of global economic importance, is vulnerable to both. However, the interactive effects of drought and herbivory on soybeans haven't been explored, especially ...
