The present study evaluated the impact of high ambient O on morphological, physiological and biochemical traits and leaf proteome in two high-yielding varieties of wheat using ethylene diurea (EDU) as foliar spray (200 and 300 ppm). Average ambient ozone concentration was 60 ppb which was more than sufficient to cause phytotoxic effects. EDU treatment resulted in less lipid peroxidation along with increased chlorophyll content, biomass and yield. EDU alleviated the negative effects of ozone by enhancing activities of antioxidants and antioxidative enzymes. Two dimensional electrophoresis (2DGE) analysis revealed massive changes in protein abundance in Kundan at vegetative stage (50% proteins were increased, 20% were decreased) and at flowering stage (25% increased, 18% decreased). In PBW 343 at both the developmental stages about 15% proteins were increased whereas 20% were decreased in abundance. Higher abundance of proteins related to carbon metabolism, defense and photorespiration conferred tolerance to EDU treated Kundan. In PBW343, EDU provided incomplete protection as evidenced by low abundance of many primary metabolism related proteins. Proteomic changes in response to EDU treatment in two varieties are discussed in relation to growth and yield.

Investigating the potency of ethylenediurea (EDU) in alleviating the affliction of ambient ozone in heat labile tomato cultivars (Solanum lycopersicum L.).

Tomato is the second most valuable vegetable crop, and its susceptibility to tropospheric ozone (O) varies on the cultivar. Eight tomato cultivars with documented O sensitivity were reevaluated using ethylenediurea (400 ppm EDU) to determine the effectiveness of EDU in assessing O sensitivity under heavily O-polluted tropical conditions. EDU helped in amending the growth, photosynthetic pigments, photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, and yield characteristics in the tomato cultivars.

Industrialization-driven surface ozone (O) pollution significantly impairs plant growth. This study evaluates the effectiveness of exogenous protectants [3 mg L⁻ abscisic acid (ABA), 400 mg L⁻ ethylenediurea (EDU), and 80 mg L⁻ spermidine (Spd)] on Trifolium repens subjected to O stress in open-top chambers, focusing on plant growth and dynamics of culturable endophytic fungal communities. Results indicate that O exposure adversely affects photosynthesis, reducing root biomass and altering root structure, which further impacts the ability of plant to absorb essential nutrients such as potassium (K), magnesium (Mg), and zinc (Zn).

Ground-level ozone (O) is the most phytotoxic secondary air pollutant in the atmosphere, severely affecting crop yields worldwide. The role of nanoparticles (NP) in the alleviation of ozone-induced yield losses in crops is not known. Therefore, in the present study, we investigated the effects of biogenicB-AgNPs on the mitigation of ozone-induced phytotoxicity in mung bean and compared its results with ethylenediurea (EDU) for the first time.

Increased surface ozone (O) pollution seriously threatens crop production, and ethylenediurea (EDU) can alleviate crop yield reduction caused by O. However, the reason for the decrease in grain nitrogen (N) accumulation caused by O and whether EDU serves as N fertilizer remain unclear. An experiment was conducted to investigate the impacts of factorial combinations of O enrichment (ambient air plus 60 ppb) and EDU (foliage spray with 450 ppm solutions) on N concentration, accumulation and remobilization in hybrid rice seedlings.

Although Bangladesh is known to be burdened with elevated tropospheric ozone levels, little is known about its effects on food security. We conducted field experiments in four highly polluted rice growing environments of Bangladesh in three cropping seasons (2020-2022), in which we grew 20 different rice varieties with or without application of the ozone protectant ethylene diurea (EDU). The average daytime ozone concentrations at the study sites during the rice growing seasons ranged from 53 ppb to 84 ppb, with the lowest concentrations occurring in the year 2020.
