关于参与调节植物对干旱和盐分压力的反应的miRNAs的进展

Salt stress—which can be triggered by high salt concentrations in a plant’s environment—can significantly affect plant growth and crop production by influencing photosynthesis and the absorption of water and nutrients.

Water plays a significant role in the life cycle of plants. However, insufficient or excess of water can be detrimental and pose a serious threat to plants.

Endophytic bacteria colonize plant tissues and promote plant growth.To study their impact on tomato plant growth under salt stress, start with sterile seedlings showing developing leaves and roots.Immerse the roots of the experimental seedling in a suspension of endophytic bacteria; leave the control uninoculated.Transfer both groups into sterilized soil to prevent external microbial interference and incubate in a growth chamber.From the soil, the bacteria enter through transient root openings,...

We designed an image-based phenotyping protocol to determine the morphological and physiological responses to single and combined heat, drought, and waterlogging treatments. This approach enabled the identification of early, late, and recovery responses at a whole plant level, particularly above-ground parts, and highlighted the necessity of using multiple imaging...

Vascular endothelium tightly controls leukocyte recruitment. Inadequate leukocyte extravasation contributes to human inflammatory diseases. Therefore, searching for novel regulatory elements of endothelial activation is necessary to design improved therapies for inflammatory disorders. Here, we describe a comprehensive methodology to characterize novel endothelial regulators that can modify leukocyte trafficking during...

Every organism has an optimum temperature range within which healthy growth and physiological functioning can occur. At the ends of this range, there will be a minimum and maximum temperature that interrupt biological processes.
