Homology modeling and protein-protein interaction studies of GAPDH from Helopeltis theivora and chitinase from Pseudomonas fluorescens to control infection in tea [Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze] plants

Plant Stress
Tea [Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze] is an important crop cultivated in all over the world. The main problem in tea cultivation is the attack by a bug called Helopeltis theivora. Many different strategies, such as the use of pesticides and insecticides,

Effect of 6-benzyladenine on soybean seed germination under salt stress and establishment of stress grade prediction model

Plant Stress
Soil salinization severely hinders crop growth and decreases crop yield, and is increasingly an obstacle for the sustainability of agriculture. In this paper, different concentrations of NaCl (0, 50, 100, 150 mmol/L) and 6-benzyladenine (6-BA) (0, 1, 3 ...

Combined application of biochar and metal-tolerant bacteria alleviates cadmium toxicity by modulating the antioxidant defense mechanism and physicochemical attributes in rice (Oryza sativa L.) grown in cadmium-contaminated soil

Plant Stress
Agricultural soil contamination by heavy metal (cadmium) is a widespread issue and causes deleterious effects on crops. One of the most effective and ecofriendly methods for cadmium detoxification is microbe-assisted phytoremediation and soil amendment ...

Combined application of acetylcholine (ACh) and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) mitigates the effects of water deficit in soybean

Plant Stress
Bioregulatory substances, such as acetylcholine (ACh) and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), have shown promise in mitigating water deficit effects on plants. Their action on plant physiology, particularly in stomatal regulation and osmoprotection, contributes ...

Salt induced protein dynamics in young rice roots of osmybcc-1 mutant and its involvement in salt stress

Plant Stress
Plants experiencing salt stress often exhibit an ionic homeostasis disorder as a primary symptom. Transcription factor OsMYBc positively regulates OsHKT1;1 to control Na+ accumulation in rice shoots. In this study, root tissues from a T-DNA insert mutant

RNA-Seq-based analysis of transcriptomic signatures elicited by mutations conferring salt tolerance in Cucurbita pepo

Plant Stress
Salinity is a major determinant of plant growth and crop productivity, resulting in significant economic losses in agriculture. Improving salinity tolerance in plant breeding programs requires not only donor tolerant genotypes but also a thorough ...

ApHKT1 confers salinity tolerance in Apocynum by restraining the intake of Na+/K+in root tissues

Plant Stress
Apocynum, exhibiting tolerance to severe salt stress, provides important materials for textile, medicine and biofuels. However, the underlying mechanism of Apocynum adapting to salt stresses remains poorly understood. In this study, physiological methods
