Abstract

Plant small molecules, such as nitric oxide (NO) and melatonin (MN) as natural and human health-friendly compounds, play important roles in the mitigation of abiotic stresses in plants. Heavy metals such as chromium (Cr) are hazardous for the survival of ornamentals, especially edible flowers. This study evaluated the effects of NO (50 µM; sourced as sodium nitroprusside) and MN (50 µM) applied two times through foliar spraying at 1-week intervals on alleviating Cr (120 µM; K2Cr2O7)-induced oxidative stress in edible flowers of Calendula officinalis cv. Orange King. Cr stress decreased plant dry mass, leaf SPAD values, net photosynthetic rates, and the maximum photochemical quantum yield (Fv/Fm), and increased the oxidative stress markers. The individual application of NO or MN significantly mitigated the adverse effects, and the combined application of NO and MN synergistically enhanced plant tolerance to Cr stress, including increased activities of antioxidant enzymes in plants and concentrations of carbohydrate, ascorbic acid, sugar, total protein, as well as ash contents of edible flowers. The co-application also significantly elevated the concentrations of total phenolics, flavonoids, free reducing power, antioxidant capacity DPPH, and total carotenoids in Cr-treated plants compared with those in Cr-stressed plants. Additionally, the essential oil contents in flowers increased in response to the signaling molecule treatment under Cr stress. Compared with individual applications, the co-application of NO and MN had more significant effects. Our results indicate that the combination of signaling molecules, such as MN and NO, can not only increase the biomass of edible calendula plants but also improve flower quality for use as a novel food.

Abstract

The ability of salicylic acid and jasmonic acid to suppress post-harvest infection with green mould Penicillium digitatum and blue mould P. italicum on three citrus species Citrus reticulata ‘Kinnow’, C. limon ‘Meyer Lemon’, and C. limetta ‘Mosambi’ was evaluated in a dose-response study. Salicylic acid (SA) and jasmonic acid (JA) were applied to the fruits as a post-harvest dip treatment followed by wound inoculation with the pathogens. Both resistance inducers caused a significantly lower disease severity compared with the infected but non-treated control, whereas disease incidence was not significantly lower than in the control. The efficacy of both SA and JA in reducing disease severity was concentration-dependent; the use of higher concentrations resulted in a greater degree of suppression. All the Citrus species tested in this study showed different responses in terms of disease development. C. limon ‘Meyer Lemon’ showed the highest disease development, and C. limetta ‘Mosambi’ the lowest. To get an insight into the mechanisms underlying the increase in resistance, the activity of defence-related enzymes – peroxidase (POD) and polyphenol oxidase (PPO) – was recorded in SA- and JA-treated fruit peelings. The activity of both enzymes was directly proportional to the concentration of the SA and JA applications. The highest activity of PPO and POD was observed in C. reticulata ‘Kinnow’ and the lowest in C. limon ‘Meyer Lemon’ fruits. This study is the first to document an increase in the activity of PPO and POD in SA- and JA-treated Citrus species in the presence of blue mould and green mould pathogens.

Abstract

Mangifera indica L., commonly known as mango, is a vital fruit crop in Pakistan, renowned for its rich nutritional profile and phytochemical composition. However, mangoes are susceptible to various phytopathogenic diseases, with anthracnose being a significant concern. This study investigated the impact of environmental factors, specifically temperature and humidity, on the development of mango anthracnose. Seven mango varieties (Duseri, Anwarlatore, Sindhri, Langra, Sammar, White Chunsa, and Fajr) were selected and surveyed in the Bahawalpur region, including Mubarakpur, Yazman, Ahmadpur East, Lalsuhanra, and Bahawalpur City. Tagged leaves exhibiting anthracnose symptoms were monitored to assess the disease's growth rate in response to environmental factors. Our findings suggest that optimal conditions in the Bahawalpur region facilitate the proliferation of mango anthracnose. Significantly, changes in rainfall patterns, potentially linked to global warming, contribute to the spread of anthracnose disease. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
