Summary: This study investigated the resistance mechanisms of common bean (a nonhost) and soybean (a host) against Phytophthora sojae, the pathogen causing root and stem rot in soybean. The results showed that common bean exhibited stronger resistance, potentially due to higher levels of phaseollidin, increased cell wall depositions, and callose accumulation.

Summary: The objective of this study was to determine the best method to establish optimal timing of fungicide applications on corn, soybean, and bean plants, by comparing results based on the calendar versus agrometeorological data. Among the integrated disease management tools investigated, it was concluded that chemical control improves crop health and yield for corn, soybean, and bean plants, especially when timing of treatment application is based on the calendar. The programme AgroDetecta (TM) showed promise as a decision-making tool for the best timing to spray, but requires adjustments for commercial use.

Summary: Di19 is a family of transcription factors involved in stress responses, growth, and development, with GmDi19-15 identified as a novel transcription factor specifically expressed in roots. Its potential role as a transcription regulator was hinted by transactivation activity in yeast cells, and its ectopic expression in Arabidopsis resulted in compromised drought tolerance. Our study expanded the GmDi19 family with 8 new members and proposed GmDi19-15 as a target for tissue-specific genetic modification and enhancing stress tolerance traits.

Summary: In this study, we identified 80 DEAD-box genes in the soybean genome and found that most of these genes were highly conserved in Arabidopsis. However, two genes were specific to soybean. The promoters of these genes contained cis-acting elements involved in plant responses to various stresses, and half of the genes contained nodulation-related elements. Microarray analysis showed differential expression of the DEAD-box genes in roots and nodules, with 31 genes being induced or highly expressed in nodules.

Summary: P-2-type Ca2+ ATPases play an important role in cellular Ca2+ transport, plant development, and stress tolerance in soybean. This study identified and analyzed 12 P-2-type Ca2+ ATPase genes in Glycine max, and investigated their expression patterns under various stresses. The results showed that most of the GmACAs and GmECAs genes were up-regulated after drought, cold, and salt treatment, but down-regulated after shading stress. Microscopic observation revealed that different stresses caused stomatal closure. Spatial location and temporal expression analysis suggested that certain GmACAs and GmECAs genes may promote stomatal closure under drought, cold, and salt stress, while GmECA1 may regulate stomatal closure in shading stress.

Summary: In a chronic model experiment on rats, the liver morphology, intensity of apoptosis, and activity of xenobiotic metabolism enzymes were studied after exposure to a mixture of 6 pesticides and lifelong diets with adequate and insufficient supply of water-soluble vitamins. The dose of each pesticide in the mixture did not exceed the acceptable daily intake (1 ADI). The findings suggest that chronic exposure to low doses of anthropogenic toxicants combined with permanent vitamin deficiency can cause various liver changes, including increased apoptosis activity, depletion of the cytochrome P450 system, steatosis, and inflammatory infiltration, posing a potential health risk.

Summary: Previous studies have shown that salinity stress can enhance the nutritional and bioactive compounds of vegetables, making them more valuable for human consumption. In this study, the effects of sodium chloride stress on a specific type of leafy vegetable, Lalshak, were evaluated. The results showed that the mineral content, ascorbic acid, reducing capacity, beta-carotene, flavonoids, pigments, polyphenolic profiles, and antiradical capacity of Lalshak increased with increasing sodium chloride concentration. Therefore, Lalshak could be cultivated as an alternative crop in salt-affected areas, providing a high-quality food source with enhanced nutritional and bioactive properties.

Summary: This study evaluated the aquatic toxicity of two suspension samples obtained from underwater welding using electrode and flux-cored wire on marine microalgae Attheya ussuriensis and Porphyridium purpureum. The results showed that the suspension obtained from welding with electrode had an acute toxic impact on A. ussuriensis, while both suspensions had chronic toxicity with a 40% growth rate inhibition in this microalga. However, P. purpureum showed tolerance to both suspensions due to the presence of an exopolysaccharide covering that prevented the toxic impact of metal cations.

Summary: Results from comprehensive geological-hydrobiogeochemical studies on Olkhon Island in Lake Baikal show that geophagy among wild and domestic ungulates on the island is caused by a deficiency of light subgroup rare earth elements (LREE) in plant food and natural waters, potentially influenced by other factors as well. This deficiency is due to the low LREE specificity of the dominant metamorphic terrigenous carbonate rocks on the island and their underlying eluvium-deluvium and soils. The resulting LREE imbalance in the nervous and hormonal systems of animals leads them to regularly consume clay products enriched with necessary nutritional elements.
