Ethylene reduces glucose sensitivity and reverses photosynthetic repression through optimization of glutathione production in salt-stressed wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

Scientific Reports, 2021
Ethylene plays a crucial role throughout the life cycle of plants under optimal and stressful environments. The present study reports the involvement of exogenously sourced ethylene (as ethephon; 2-chloroethyl phosphonic acid) in the protection of the ...

Exogenous Abscisic Acid Can Influence Photosynthetic Processes in Peas through a Decrease in Activity of H⁺-ATP-ase in the Plasma Membrane

Biology, 2020
Abscisic acid (ABA) is an important hormone in plants that participates in their acclimation to the action of stressors. Treatment by exogenous ABA and its synthetic analogs are a potential way of controlling the tolerance of agricultural plants; however,

Structure-based ligand design and discovery of novel tenuazonic acid derivatives with high herbicidal activity

Journal of Advanced Research, 2022
Introduction: Computer-aided design has become an important tool to develop novel pesticides based on natural lead compounds. Tenuazonic acid (TeA), a typical representative of the natural tetramic acid family, was patented as a potential bioherbicide ...

Sulfur supplementation enhances nitric oxide efficacy in reversal of chromium-inhibited Calvin cycle enzymes, photosynthetic activity, and carbohydrate metabolism in wheat

Scientific Reports, 2023
The present study demonstrated that exogenously-sourced nitric oxide (as SNP, sodium nitroprusside; NO donor) and sulfur (S) protected photosynthesis against chromium (Cr) stress in wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. HD 2851).

Metamitron, a Photosynthetic Electron Transport Chain Inhibitor, Modulates the Photoprotective Mechanism of Apple Trees

Plants, 2021
Chemical thinning of apple fruitlets is an important practice as it reduces the natural fruit load and, therefore, increases the size of the final fruit for commercial markets.

Ethylene Suppresses Abscisic Acid, Modulates Antioxidant System to Counteract Arsenic-Inhibited Photosynthetic Performance in the Presence of Selenium in Mustard

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Arsenic (As) stress provokes various toxic effects in plants that disturbs its photosynthetic potential and hampers growth. Ethylene and selenium (Se) have shown regulatory interaction in plants for metal tolerance; however, their synergism in As ...

Regulatory role of gamma-aminobutyric acid in cyanobacteria challenged with UV-B: The implication of nitric oxide

Plant Stress, 2022
The present study examined the alleviatory role of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in UV-B challenged nitrogen fixing cyanobacteria and the significant role of nitric oxide (NO) as a downstream signal in GABA-mediated responses.

Effects of ethylene inhibitor and promoter on photosynthetic characteristics of soybean (Glycine max) seedling leaves

浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2010
Different concentrations of ethylene inhibitor AVG (aminoethoxyvinylglycine) and promoter ACC (1-aminocylopropane-1-carboxylic acid) were sprayed to seedlings of soybean cultivar Tiefeng 31, and their effects on photosynthesis and CO2 response curves ...

Ethylene potentiates sulfur-mediated reversal of cadmium inhibited photosynthetic responses in mustard

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016
The potential of exogenous ethylene and sulfur (S) in reversal of cadmium (Cd)-inhibited photosynthetic and growth responses in mustard (Brassica juncea L. cv. Pusa Jai Kisan) were studied.

The plastoquinone pool of Nannochloropsis oceanica is not completely reduced during bright light pulses. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
The lipid-producing model alga Nannochloropsis oceanica has a distinct photosynthetic machinery. This organism possesses chlorophyll a as its only chlorophyll species, and has a high ratio of PSI to PSII.
