Tertiary leaf callus from 13-week-old Tagetes minuta showed 5 to 6-fold higher fresh weight increment than callus from 3 to 7-week-old plants. No such differences were observed in the primary and secondary calli. Similarly, tertiary leaf callus of T. patula showed morphological differentiation that varied with the mineral nutrition to which intact plants had been exposed and that did not appear in the primary and secondary calli. No such effects were observed in T. minuta). These «origin» effects are discussed in relation to «memory» effects and to their applica-tion to plant biotechnical procedures.

Salt stress severely affects the growth and yield of apples (Malus domestica Borkh). Although salt-tolerant genes have been extensively studied, documentation on the role of the ATP-dependent phosphofructokinase gene MdPFK5 in salt stress is limited. This study conducted an evolutionary tree and three-dimensional structure analysis of the PFK gene family in Arabidopsis thaliana and MdPFK (MD01G1037400), revealing a close phylogenetic relationship between MdPFK (MD01G1037400) and AtPFK5.

Abiotic stresses such as nitrogen deficiency, drought, and salinity significantly impact coconut production, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying coconut's response to these stresses are poorly understood. MYB proteins, a large and diverse family of transcription factors (TF), play crucial roles in plant responses to various abiotic stresses, but their genome-wide characterization and functional roles in coconut have not been comprehensively explored. This study identified 214 genes (39 1R-MYB, 171 R2R3-MYB, 2 3R-MYB, and 2 4R-MYB) in the coconut genome.
