Summary: The study found that non-AM plants increased carbon allocation belowground under P limitation in the early growth stage and increased partitioning to secondary metabolites (SMs). However, in the late growth stage, the trade-off between SMs and root growth was observed. AM symbiosis altered these changes and improved plant tolerance to P deficiency by increasing carbon partitioning to root growth and AM fungus.

Summary: The use of biogenic ammonia produced by urea degrading bacteria as a pretreatment agent can increase the pH of leachate and stimulate the activity of sulfate-reducing bacteria, ultimately improving sulfate removal efficiency.

Summary: This study examined the effects of soybean seed size and seed P content on growth and P accumulation, demonstrating that under low P conditions, shoot P accumulation mainly relied on seed P reserves, while the role of seed P was negligible under high P conditions. A close linear relationship between seed P and shoot P uptake was confirmed under high P conditions.

Summary: Chitosan foliar application can increase hydrogen peroxide content in Dracocephalum kotschyi and enhance the activities of enzymatic and non-enzymatic defensive metabolites. Chitosan foliar spray also promotes nutrient absorption in plants, leading to the accumulation of macroelements.

Summary: The Brassicaceae family has positive impacts on inflammatory skin disorders by regulating skin inflammation, accelerating wound healing, and inhibiting edema development. Secondary metabolites in Brassicas, such as polyphenols, terpenes/carotenoids, and glycosylates, contribute to their anti-inflammatory, healing, and antioxidant effects. The current evidence supports the potential of compounds derived from Brassicaceae in treating inflammatory skin diseases and promoting cutaneous wound healing.

Summary: This study explores the interplay between elevated atmospheric CO2, drought stress, and plant physiological responses. The findings suggest that elevated CO2 accelerates assimilation rate decline during drought and influences photosynthetic components and electron transport. Additionally, drought-induced monoterpene emissions, polyphenols, flavonoid concentrations, and chlorophyll responses were affected by CO2 concentration and species-specific responses. These findings contribute to a nuanced understanding of CO2-drought interactions and their intricate effects on plant physiology.

Summary: The Aspergillus aculeatus fungus can promote tolerance to phosphorus or potassium deficiency stress in bermudagrass and increase the contents of crude fat and crude protein. It also enhances the chlorophyll and carotenoid contents. In addition, it increases the nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium contents in bermudagrass under P or K deficiency stress.

Summary: This study assessed the effectiveness of food waste compost and palm kernel biochar as soil amendments for Melastoma malabathricum L. grown in acidic soil conditions. The results showed that adding food waste compost significantly increased the chlorophyll, anthocyanin, phenolic, and flavonoid content of the plants, as well as their antioxidant potential and nutrient uptake.

Summary: The secretion of Fe-mobilizing coumarins by plant roots is a key factor enabling plants to grow in Fe-depleted soils. While the main molecular actors involved in the biosynthesis and secretion of coumarins have been identified, the precise regulatory mechanisms that tune their production remain poorly understood.

Summary: Phenolic compounds and glucosinolates have important functions in plant resistance to abiotic stress, such as drought, salinity, high temperature, metals toxicity, and mineral deficiency or excess. The review also discusses their relationship with water uptake and transport mediated through aquaporins. The increase in phenolic compounds and glucosinolate synthesis is related to primary responses to abiotic stress and induction of resistance.

Summary: Rainfed rice in sub-Saharan Africa faces the challenges of drought and phosphorus deficiency. This study examined the response of different rice genotypes to variable water stress under conditions of phosphorus deficiency. The results showed that the effects of phosphorus supply on shoot weight were greater than the effects of water supply. Reduced water supply did not enhance phosphorus stress, and the stress response varied among genotypes. Root biomass production and root efficiency were found to be important factors in combating the combined stresses of water and phosphorus. The study confirmed the superior performance of the genotypes Chhomrong Dhan and FOFIFA 172 found in the field.

Summary: The study found that seaweed extract was the most effective in increasing the concentrations of glucosinolates and phenolic compounds in broccoli, while trilinolein had a lesser impact. Seaweed extract was able to increase the levels of gluconasturtiin and hydroxycinnamic derivatives, while trilinolein may be beneficial in producing broccoli with higher gluconasturtiin content.

Summary: The study revealed that vermicompost can mitigate the adverse effects of water stress on sweet basil growth, particularly at concentrations of 10% and 20%, significantly improving plant growth. For essential oil and phenolic compounds, major components decreased under water stress and vermicompost treatments, while minor components increased.

Summary: This study investigated the availability of organic phosphorus compounds adsorbed onto soil minerals and their uptake by plants. The results showed that the availability and uptake of adsorbed organic phosphorus compounds varied depending on the type of mineral and organic phosphorus compound. The uptake of phosphorus from adsorbed organic phosphorus compounds was influenced by the available phosphorus concentration in the rhizosphere rather than the binding strength of the compounds to the mineral surface.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of brown seaweed extract on seed soaking and irrigation on the germination and growth traits of faba beans and sunflowers. The results showed that the seaweed extract improved both crop plants' germination and growth, as well as increased photosynthetic pigments and carbohydrates content.
