This study was carried out to demonstrate the mechanism of phenolic root exudates affecting microbial-mediated cadmium (Cd) speciation transformation thus enhancing the Avicennia marina tolerance to Cd. A rhizo-box experiment was conducted including eight treatments with four Cd levels (0, 1, 2, and 4 mg Cd kg) and two phenol levels (0, 15 mg kg). The results showed that the addition of phenols increased the pH, reduced the number of iron-reducing bacteria (IRB) and sulfur-oxidizing bacteria (SOB) in the rhizosphere sediments, meanwhile promoted the transformation of Cd to low activity speciation. Furthermore, the sulfate accumulation and synthesis of flavonoid phenols in plants were also enhanced. The results indicated that phenolic root exudates inhibit functional bacteria-mediated Fe and S cycles and promote the immobilization of Cd in the sediments. In conclusion, the mitigation of Cd phytotoxicity induced by phenolic root exudates enhanced the Cd tolerance of A. marina.

Introduction: Crop rotation of tobacco with other crops could effectively break the negative impact of continuous tobacco cropping, but the mechanisms of intercropping system effects on tobacco, especially on the rhizosphere, are not clear.
Methods: In this study, we investigated the impact of intercropping system on the diversity and function of tobacco metabolites and microorganisms through metabolomic and metagenomic analyses of the tobacco rhizosphere microenvironment intercropped with maize and soybean.
Results: The results showed that the contents of huperzine b, chlorobenzene, and P-chlorophenylalanine in tobacco rhizosphere soils differed significantly among soybean-tobacco and maize-tobacco intercropping system.

Stylo (Stylosanthes guianensis) is a tropical legume that exhibits considerable tolerance to manganese (Mn) toxicity, which severely constrains plant growth in acidic soils. To elucidate the Mn detoxification mechanisms in stylo, this study investigated the excess Mn-regulated metabolic profile of stylo roots and examined the role of metabolic enzymes in Mn tolerance. Excess Mn triggered oxidative stress in the two stylo genotypes tested.

Mercury is one of the most hazardous heavy metals and is capable of biomagnification, thereby posing severe risks to ecosystems and human health. Therefore, selective, sensitive, and rapid detection of Hg in a wide range of samples is essential. Herein, we report the synthesis of a new 2-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl) phenol-based fluorescent probe (PyS) and its potential as a fluorescent probe for detecting Hg ions in various real samples such as rice, garlic, shrimp, and root samples.

Salinity is one of the abiotic stress factors that affect plant physiology and cause various plant disorders. Thiourea, which consists of amino, thiol, and imino groups, is an antioxidant and growth regulator. The objective was to determine the antioxidant role of thiourea (0, 3, 6 mM) in attenuating the effects of salinity (0 mM, 50 mM, 100 mM NaCl) on growth, yield, and some biochemical compositions of flax ( L.
