Native biocrust microbes modulate salinity‐driven recruitment filters in coastal wetlands
Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Mediterranean coastal wetlands are biodiversity hotspots increasingly threatened by climate change, particularly by salinization, which strongly constrains plant recruitment during early life stages. Native soil microbiota may provide nature‐based solutions (NbS) to enhance plant establishment under saline conditions.

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 4, December 2026.ABSTRACT Molybdenum (Mo) is required for biological nitrogen fixation because it forms part of the FeMo cofactor of nitrogenase. Seed priming has been shown to increase BNF in other legumes, but its effectiveness has not been tested in faba bean (Vicia faba L.).

Salinity tolerance of five ornamental species from the Asteraceae family in seed germination and early seedling growth stages [PDF]
Journal of Horticulture and Postharvest ResearchPurpose: Seed germination and seedling growth are recognized as the most sensitive stages of salinity for the majority of plant species. This experiment aimed to characterize the impact of various salinity levels on selected ornamental plants from the ...

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 5, October 2026.ABSTRACT In pursuit of sustainable agriculture, current strategies continue to explore environmentally friendly inputs that promote plant development. Seed treatment is an ancient practice used to break seed dormancy and hasten germination. Although traditional seed treatments yield positive outcomes, the methods adopted raise concerns about the ...

Circadian Clock Gates Verticillium dahliae Defence in Cotton by Modulating JAZs Expression
Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 10, Page 5526-5543, October 2026.ABSTRACT The circadian clock plays critical roles in orchestrating temporal regulation of diverse physiological processes. However, its role in mediating root‐associated immunity against soil‐borne pathogens in crops remains poorly understood. Here, we show that cotton circadian clock gates nighttime resistance to vascular fungal pathogen Verticillium ...
