The ability of plants to recover after stressful events is crucial for resuming growth and development and is a key trait when studying stress tolerance. However, there is a lack of information on the physiological responses and the time required to restore homeostasis after the stress experience. This study aimed to (i) enhance understanding of soybean photosynthesis performance during saline waterlogging and (ii) investigate the effects of this combined stress during the reoxygenation and recovery period.

Here, we investigated the role of NO3 - in soybean plants exposed to these stresses in combination. Nodulated soybean cultivated under greenhouse conditions and daily fertilised with a nutrient solution without nitrogen were subjected to the following treatments: Water, NO3 - , NaCl, and NaCl+NO3 - .

Here, we present data showing differences in the electrome complexity of tomato fruits through ripening and discuss possible physiological processes involved. The complexity of the signals, measured through approximate entropy, varied along the fruit ripening process.

When a stimulus is perceived, a series of signals are induced and can propagate away from the stimulated site. Three distinct types of systemic signaling exist, i.

In this study, we tested whether waterlogging priming at the vegetative stage would mitigate a subsequent waterlogging event at the reproductive stage in soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.].
