The Mediterranean Basin, a hotspot for tomato production, is one of the most vulnerable areas to climate change, where rising temperatures and increasing soil and water salinization represent major threats to agricultural sustainability. Thus, to understand the molecular mechanisms behind plant responses to this stress combination, an RNA-Seq analysis was conducted on roots and shoots of tomato plants exposed to salt (100 mM NaCl) and/or heat (42°C, 4 h each day) stress for 21 days. The analysis identified over 8000 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) under combined stress conditions, with 1716 DEGs in roots and 2665 in shoots being exclusively modulated in response to this specific stress condition.

Introduction: The white water lily (Nymphaea alba) is a traditional medicinal plant recognized for its diverse array of bioactive properties. However, its potential in wound healing remains largely unexplored. This study aimed to evaluate the phytochemical profile, cytotoxicity, and wound healing efficacy of Nymphaea alba flower extract (NAFE) using both in vitro and in vivo models, as well as computational network analysis.

Horticultural crops are increasingly exposed to simultaneous abiotic stresses such as drought, salinity, and temperature extremes, which often exacerbate each other's effects, leading to severe yield and quality losses. Addressing these multifaceted challenges necessitates the development and application of integrated and innovative strategies. This review highlights recent advancements in methodologies to enhance the resilience of horticultural crops against combined abiotic stresses.

Global phosphorus (P) resources are facing a depletion crisis, and pyrolysis of P-rich sewage sludge (SS) offers significant resource potential. Optimizing pyrolysis conditions remains key yet challenging for enhancing P retention and bioavailability. This study conducted a correlation-prediction-causation integrated framework (CPCIF) to investigate how heating temperature (HT), heating rate (HR), and retention time (RT) influence total P enrichment rate (BTPE), relative inorganic P transformation rate (BITP), and relative apatite P transformation rate (BAIP) from SS to biochar during pyrolysis.

Despite China being the world's largest producer of non-ferrous metals, a comprehensive understanding of heavy metal pollution from this industry is still lacking. This study examines the spatial coupling between heavy metal (Cd, Hg, As, Pb, and Cr) emission hotspots in China's non-ferrous metal mining industry (NFMMI), non-ferrous metal smelting and processing industry (NFMSPI) and environmental media- sensitive hotspots (water body density, cultivated land concentration, and atmospheric PM2.5) to characterize the multi-media pollution risks.
