Summary: In the face of climate change-induced heat and drought stress, the physiological, biochemical, and molecular responses of potatoes have undergone changes that ultimately affect tuber production and yield. Therefore, it is necessary to comprehensively screen germplasm and apply appropriate methods and strategies to cultivate potato cultivars that can thrive in drought-affected and heat-prone areas.

Summary: In this study, 144 tetraploid potato genotypes were evaluated to investigate the variation of physiological and agronomic traits under control and water stress conditions. A total of 18 SNP markers significantly associated with these traits were identified, providing insights into the mechanisms of potato tolerance to water stress and potential markers for marker-assisted selection programs.

Summary: Drought stress is a significant problem for potato production, especially with climate change and temperature peaks along with drought periods. This study aimed to analyze eight genes and determine their suitability for detecting early drought stress in potato. Six potato genotypes were examined for plant growth and physiological parameters after seven and 14 days of stress. Changes in gene expression were observed after seven days of stress for three genes: INH1, POD, and SBT1.7. The INH1 gene showed consistent upregulation in all genotypes and may be a suitable candidate for detecting drought stress in potato.

Summary: The study assessed drought tolerance in sixteen potato genotypes using different analytical methods. It identified eight cultivars with high drought tolerance and eight cultivars that were sensitive to drought. The research also highlighted significant differences in various morphological and physiological traits among the genotypes, which could aid plant breeders and biotechnologists in mass production of potato seeds/tubers in drought-prone areas.

Summary: Freezing severely affects potato production. Understanding the pathways and metabolites that regulate potato's freezing tolerance is beneficial for cultivation and breeding purposes. In this study, it was found that Solanum acaule is more freezing tolerant compared to S. tuberosum. Through RNA-seq and metabolomics analysis, it was discovered that S. acaule activated different genes and enriched certain pathways, such as the hormone signaling pathway involving salicylic acid. Further analysis showed that the content of salicylic acid increased in S. acaule after exposure to cold conditions, leading to improved freezing tolerance. Additionally, the application of salicylic acid to potato enhanced freezing tolerance and increased the expression of HSFC1.

Summary: Due to climate change, water availability has become a major limiting factor in potato production. This study analyzed the differential response of physiological and yield components in six potato varieties under water deficit conditions and found that Monalisa showed the best response in tuber production under stress conditions. Indirect selection based on parameters associated with water stress can be a useful tool in potato breeding programs for the identification of more tolerant varieties.

Summary: The study demonstrates that the StCDF1-StFLORE locus plays a crucial role in regulating vegetative reproduction and water homeostasis in potato plants. StFLORE affects stomatal growth and diurnal opening to regulate water loss, while StCDF1 is a non-redundant regulator of tuberization.

Summary: The comparative structural and functional analysis of chitin-binding lectins from S. tuberosum and S. lycopersicum revealed high percentages of proline residues and differences in binding affinity towards different chitin oligomers. The study showed that the binding of glycans significantly improved the structural stability of STL and SLL. These findings provide insights into the potential therapeutic properties of STL and SLL, laying the foundation for further experimental studies.

Summary: This study demonstrates that stu-miR827 is involved in regulating the drought tolerance of potato by controlling the stomatal density. Suppression of stu-miR827 leads to higher stomatal density and weaker drought resistance in transgenic potato lines. StWRKY48 is identified as the target gene of stu-miR827 and its expression is induced by drought stress. The results suggest that suppression of stu-miR827 may negatively regulate the drought adaptation of potato by increasing stomatal density.

Summary: In this study, the gene expression differences between control and water-stressed potato plants were analyzed using RNAseq. The variety Agria showed a better stress response compared to Zorba, with more differentially expressed genes (DEGs) detected. The most highly expressed gene under drought conditions was Abscisic acid and environmental stress-inducible protein TAS14-like. Several metabolic pathways and cellular components were found to be affected by water stress, providing valuable information for breeding more tolerant potato varieties.

Summary: Potassium fertilizer has a significant positive impact on potato crop growth and productivity, especially under partial root irrigation conditions. The study suggests that applying potassium at a rate of 100 kg per hectare is an effective approach to inducing drought tolerance in potato crops.

Summary: Transgenic Arabidopsis lines expressing a potato gene D43 showed improved morphological parameters and accumulation of photosynthetic pigments under salinity stress. The overexpression of D43 resulted in higher levels of mRNA transcripts encoding antioxidant enzymes, leading to enhanced stress resistance in the plants. The efficient photon absorption and electron transport in D43 plants subjected to salt stress indicated improved photosynthesis and potential for developing salinity stress resistance in higher plants.
