Article Synopsis
- Salt stress negatively affects rice growth and Uniconazole can enhance stress tolerance, though its exact mechanisms and impacts are not fully understood.
- The study analyzes the effects of Uniconazole on rice seedlings' growth, metabolism, and yield under salt stress, using both salt-tolerant and salt-sensitive varieties.
- Results show that Uniconazole helps mitigate the adverse effects of salt stress by improving root volume, chlorophyll levels, antioxidant activity, photosynthesis, and ultimately enhancing rice yield.
The growth and yield of rapeseed are significantly hampered by salt stress. Indole-3-butyric Acid Potassium Salt (IBA-K) has been found to alleviate the impact of salt stress on plant growth. However, the regulatory effect of IBA-K dipping on salt-stressed rapeseed remains unclear.

- Soil salinity is rising globally, negatively impacting plant growth and crop yields, especially rice.
- The study explored how potassium indole-3-butyric acid (IBAK) helps rice adapt to salt stress by affecting carbon metabolism and gene expression.
- Results showed that IBAK promotes rice growth, alters sugar content, boosts enzyme activity, and upregulates various key genes and metabolites, suggesting it could enhance rice's ability to cope with stress.
Introduction: Salt stress is a major abiotic stress that affects crop growth and productivity. Choline Chloride (CC) has been shown to enhance salt tolerance in various crops, but the underlying molecular mechanisms in rice remain unclear.
Methods: To investigate the regulatory mechanism of CC-mediated salt tolerance in rice, we conducted morpho-physiological, metabolomic, and transcriptomic analyses on two rice varieties (WSY, salt-tolerant, and HHZ, salt-sensitive) treated with 500 mg·L CC under 0.
