are prolific antibiotic producers that thrive in soil, where they encounter diverse environmental cues, including osmotic challenges caused by rainfall and drought. Despite their enormous value in the biotechnology sector, which often relies on ideal growth conditions, how react and adapt to osmotic stress is heavily understudied. This is likely due to their complex developmental biology and an exceptionally broad number of signal transduction systems. With this review, we provide an overview of ' responses to osmotic stress signals and draw attention to open questions in this research area. We discuss putative osmolyte transport systems that are likely involved in ion balance control and osmoadaptation and the role of alternative sigma factors and two-component systems (TCS) in osmoregulation. Finally, we highlight the current view on the role of the second messenger c-di-AMP in cell differentiation and the osmotic stress responses with specific emphasis on the two models, and .

Soybean () is a leguminous plant with a broad range of applications, particularly in agriculture and food production, where its seed composition-especially oil and protein content-is highly valued. Improving these traits is a primary focus of soybean breeding programs. In this study, we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) to identify genetic loci linked to oil and protein content in seeds, using imputed genotype data for 180 Eurasian soybean varieties and the novel "genotypic twins" approach.

Soil salinization severely restricts the growth and development of crops globally, especially in the northwest Loess Plateau, where apples constitute a pillar industry. Nanomaterials, leveraging their unique properties, can facilitate the transport of nutrients to crops, thereby enhancing plant growth and development under stress conditions. To investigate the effects of nano zinc oxide (ZnO NP) on the growth and physiological characteristics of apple self-rooted rootstock M9-T337 seedlings under saline alkali stress, one-year-old M9-T337 seedlings were used as experimental materials and ZnO NPs were used as donors for pot experiment.

Plants have large amounts of the late embryogenesis abundant protein (LEA) family of proteins, which is involved in osmotic regulation. The Korla Pear () is an uncommon pear species that thrives in Xinjiang and can survive below-freezing conditions. We found that the gene was more expressed after cold treatment by looking at the transcriptome data of the Korla Pear.
