Summary: Numerous pesticides are applied to crop plants annually, including fungicides, which may affect plant metabolism and crop quality. This study investigated the effects of two fungicides on the metabolism of strawberry cultivars and wild strawberries, specifically focusing on primary and specialized metabolites that contribute to fruit flavor. The fungicide treatment significantly impacted several metabolites, indicating potential changes in taste and quality of strawberries when treated with fungicides.

Summary: Numerous pesticides, including fungicides, are applied every year to crop plants, which may affect plant metabolism and thus crop quality. The present study tested the effects of two fungicides on the metabolism of two cultivars and the wild strawberry, focusing on primary and specialized metabolites that determine fruit flavor. The fungicide treatment significantly affected a number of metabolites, indicating potential changes in taste and quality of strawberries.

Summary: The study revealed that 8‰ salinity is the most suitable for juvenile Chinese mitten crabs, while survival rate and immune-related indicators are lower in 0‰ and high salinity conditions. Changes in amino acid and enzyme activity at 8‰ salinity play a key role in the adaptability of E. sinensis to different salinity levels.

Summary: Amino acids are crucial for plant species, such as rice, as they serve as the fundamental units of protein building blocks. This study aimed to investigate the amino acid profiles of four rice genotypes under NaCl, CaCl2, and MgCl2 stress. The results showed that the content of essential and non-essential amino acids significantly increased in cultivar Cheongcheong under NaCl and MgCl2 application, while total amino acid content increased in cultivar Nagdong under all three salt types. Salt-sensitive cultivar IR28 and salt-tolerant Pokkali exhibited lower levels of total amino acid content under different salt stress conditions. The findings suggest that the amino acid profile of each rice cultivar is influenced by its origin, immune level, and genetic makeup.

Summary: In this study, exposure experiments were used to quantify the effects of salinity on larval gill morphology in wood frogs. It was found that larvae raised in elevated salinity developed changes in gill morphology, impacting ionoregulatory and respiratory function. These changes may diminish the functionality of gill tufts and compromise feeding capability of gill filters.

Summary: Free amino acids (FAAs) play important roles in osmoregulation and buffer capacity in aquatic animals. This study analyzed the relationship between FAAs and environmental salinities through meta-analysis. The results showed that elevated salinities significantly increased the contents of total free amino acids (TFAAs), total essential amino acids (TEAAs), and total non-essential amino acids (TNEAAs). The contents of FAAs varied in fishes under different salinity environments, with brackish water displaying relatively constant contents. The increase in salinity also led to elevated levels of amino acids in muscles, suggesting the importance of FAA metabolism in osmoregulation. The effect sizes of TFAAs were positively correlated with the rates of salinity increases and exhibited a significant quadratic linear relationship with temperatures. Additionally, the contents of FAAs showed positive correlation with osmotic pressure, concentrations of plasma Na+, Cl-, and urea.

Summary: This study aimed to characterize the physiological, metabolic, and genetic aspects that determine differential resistance to water deficit in soybean genotypes. Results showed that the L13241 genotype exhibited better resistance to drought through adjustments in metabolic characteristics and gene expression. This study contributes to the advancement in the knowledge about drought resistance in cultivated plants and provides bases for the genetic improvement of soybean cultivation.

Summary: This study aims to understand the salt adaptation mechanisms of the plant growth-promoting halophilic bacteria ANJ207. Transcriptome analysis revealed upregulated expression of stress-responsive genes, such as lactate dehydrogenase and catalase, at high salt concentrations. Genes related to the biosynthesis and uptake of compatible solutes were also found to be upregulated, indicating their contribution to salinity adaptation in ANJ207.

Summary: In this study, non-targeted metabolomics analysis was conducted on 10 strawberry species using UHPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap MS. A total of 142 compounds were identified and classified into six categories. Screening 72 differential metabolites revealed that Tochiotome differed the most from the white strawberry (Baiyu). Histidine, apigenin, cyanidin 3-glucoside, and peonidin 3-glucoside were identified as potential biomarkers for distinguishing Baiyu and other strawberry groups. Amino acid metabolism, anthocyanin biosynthesis, and flavonoid biosynthesis pathways played a major role in determining the nutritional distinctions. This research contributes to the determination of the nutrition and health benefits of different strawberry species.

Summary: The mechanisms by which plants respond to alkali salt stress and the role of alkaline pH in this process are still unclear. This study investigates the fast responses specific to alkaline pH and alkali salt stress in hydroponically grown Vicia faba L. plants. The findings suggest that alkaline pH and alkali salt stress induce changes in apoplastic pH, physiological responses, and gene regulation, which are important for early plant adaptation to alkali salt stress.
