Water deficit stress causes devastating loss of crop yield worldwide. Improving crop drought resistance has become an urgent issue. Here we report that a group of abscisic acid (ABA)/drought stress-induced monocot-specific, intrinsically disordered, and highly proline-rich proteins, REPETITIVE PROLINE-RICH PROTEINS (RePRPs), play pivotal roles in drought resistance in rice seedlings.

The turnover of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in soil regulated by biodegradable microplastics (MPs) has garnered much attention due to its profound impact on the storage and stability of soil organic matter. However, the transformation and reactivity of plant-derived and microbially derived DOM by microorganisms adapted to biodegradable MPs, and the involved microbial physiological processes, remain nearly unknown. Here, we added virgin and aged polylactic acid (PLA) and polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) to agricultural soils and incubated for 56 days.

Introduction: Soybean cyst nematode populations are rapidly evolving to overcome the limited genetic resistance currently employed in commercial soybean varieties, threatening the future of crop production. To mitigate that, it is crucial to identify novel sources of resistance. Soybean lines PI 561310 and PI 567295 were previously found to exhibit partial SCN resistance despite lacking resistant alleles at and .

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) plays a key role in grassland carbon biogeochemistry and shows sensitivity to global climate change, particularly nitrogen (N) deposition. We investigated the soil DOM molecular composition by UV-Vis and fluorescence spectroscopy, and FT-ICR MS through a N addition experiment (CK, N5, N10, N20, and N40 [0, 5, 10, 20, and 40 g N m-2 year-1, respectively]) in a desert steppe of northwest China. Moderate N inputs (N5-N20) caused a dose-dependent increase in DOM content (9.

GA participates in FR light-induced internode elongation of cucumber by regulating the expression of genes/proteins related to aquaporins, expansins, cell wall biosynthesis, hormone metabolism, and signal transduction. This study investigated the effects of the interaction between far-red (FR) light and gibberellin (GA) on the internode elongation of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L. 'Zhongnong No.
