BRI1-EMS-Suppressor 1 (BES1) regulates plant growth, development, and stress resistance, and plays a pivotal role in the brassinosteroid (BR) signal transduction pathway. In this study, a total of 12 BES1 genes were identified in the grape (Vitis vinifera) genome. Phylogenetic, structure, and motif sequence analyses of these genes provided insights into their evolutionary characteristics. Hormone-, stress-, and light-responsive and organ-specific cis-acting elements were identified in VvBES1 gene promoters. Microarray data analysis showed that VvBES1 family members exhibit diverse expression patterns in different organs. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis showed that the expression levels of VvBES1 genes differed in response to BR, methyl jasmonate (MeJA), cold (4 °C), NaCl, and polyethylene glycol (PEG) treatments. The expression of VvBES1-3 was 29-fold higher under salt stress than control at 12 h. Moreover, VvBES1-3-overexpessing Arabidopsis thaliana plants showed lower malondialdehyde content, higher proline content, enhanced antioxidant enzyme (catalase, superoxide dismutase, peroxidase) activities, and higher salt-responsive gene expression levels than wild-type plants under salt stress, indicating that VvBES1-3 overexpression enhances salt stress tolerance in transgenic Arabidopsis. These results will contribute to further understanding the functions of BES1 transcription factors in the abiotic stress response.

UDP-glycosyltransferases (UGTs) are the largest glycosyltransferase family developed during the evolution of the plant kingdom. However, their physiological significance in abiotic stress adaptation in land plants is largely unknown. In this study, we identified a UGT gene from Arabidopsis thaliana, UGT86A1, that was significantly induced by salt and drought stresses.

Melatonin (MLT) is an indole derivative that exhibits hormone-like activities in plants, regulating multiple aspects of growth and development. Due to its role in mitigating oxidative stress and facilitating osmoprotectant accumulation, MLT enhances abiotic stress tolerance, although the pathways and metabolic mechanisms involved remain unclear despite being studied in various crops. This work aimed to investigate the changes elicited by the exogenous MLT application at different concentrations (10, 50, 150 μM) and its role in mitigating the salinity stress in Lactuca sativa L.

Melatonin (MT), an indole compound, can boost plant growth under abiotic stress conditions. This experiment aims to elucidate the synergistic effect of MT and ascorbic acid (AsA) in mitigating salinity stress by assessing the photosynthetic and antioxidant capacity of the maize inbred lines H123 and W961. The results indicated that exogenous MT and AsA significantly improved photosynthetic efficiency and biomass of maize under salinity stress.

Complex N-glycans are asparagine (N)-linked branched sugar chains attached to secretory proteins in eukaryotes. They are produced by modification of N-linked oligosaccharide structures in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi apparatus. Complex N-glycans formed in the Golgi apparatus are often assigned specific roles unique to the host organism, with their roles in plants remaining largely unknown.
