Summary: Research in the past 60 years has shown that wheat breeding has optimized photosynthetic performance under high light conditions, despite a decrease in light levels on flag leaves over time. The stability of photosynthetic rates and resistance of the photosynthetic apparatus to high light, even with decreasing light intensity, may have contributed to increased wheat yields.

Summary: Nanoparticles have a stimulating effect on the photosynthetic apparatus of wheat seedlings, as demonstrated by treating seeds with gold nanoparticles. These nanoparticles penetrate the seeds and induce ultrastructural changes in chloroplasts, leading to increased photosynthesis and stress tolerance.

Summary: In this study, the day and night photosynthetic activity of male and female Welwitschia mirabilis specimens were studied, revealing differences in photosynthetic activity and stomatal density between sexes. However, there were weak differences between male and female plants in full sunlight conditions.

Summary: Local action of stressors induces fast changes in physiological processes in intact parts of plants, including photosynthetic inactivation. This study investigated the influence of hyperpolarization electrical signals induced by moderate heating and blue light on photosynthetic light reactions in wheat plants. The results showed that the combination of moderate heating and blue light decreased the quantum yield of photosystem II and increased non-photochemical quenching of chlorophyll fluorescence. The effects were dependent on the intensity of actinic light and were observed within a certain distance from the irritated zone. Soil drought and actinic light intensity also affected the parameters of these photosynthetic changes.

Summary: Under heat stress, wheat lines with high photosynthetic rates can maintain the activities of PSII and key Calvin cycle enzymes, as well as higher photosynthetic rates. These lines also show increased levels of key proteins and higher antioxidant enzyme activity, indicating better thermotolerance and ROS scavenging ability compared to lines with low photosynthetic rates.

Summary: Two major challenges facing the world can be partially addressed through changes in agricultural practices, including producing enough food for a growing population in adverse climate conditions and reducing greenhouse gases to mitigate global climate change. Improving crop plants' photosynthetic efficiency can help meet these challenges by increasing yields and reducing environmental impact, promoting sustainable development.

Summary: The use of stimulation preparations shows promise in reducing the effects of stressors on plants. The application of stimulants had a predominantly positive effect on yield and thousand-grain weight, influenced by different environmental conditions each year. In 2020, higher yields were achieved with increased precipitation and Fv/Fm values, while in 2019, lower yields were observed due to dry and warm conditions. Cultivars with blue aleurone consistently showed higher yields in both experimental years, indicating their potential for increasing resistance to stressors.

Summary: The research conducted with Arabidopsis thaliana revealed the synergistic effect of zeaxanthin and PsbS, showing that PsbS interferes with the formation of densely packed aggregates of thylakoid membrane proteins, thus affecting the incorporation and photophysical properties of xanthophyll cycle pigments. The study highlighted the importance of zeaxanthin in enhancing excitation quenching to protect the system against photo-damage, while violaxanthin led to minimized dissipation of excitation energy within supramolecular structures.

Summary: The rapid increase in population growth under changing climatic conditions causes drought stress, threatening world food security. The identification of physiological and biochemical traits acting as yield-limiting factors in diverse germplasm is pre-requisite for genetic improvement under water-deficit conditions. The major aim of the present study was the identification of drought-tolerant wheat cultivars with a novel source of drought tolerance from local wheat germplasm.

Summary: Melatonin and methyl jasmonate play important roles in enhancing photosynthetic performance and heat stress acclimation in wheat plants by modulating antioxidant metabolism and ethylene production. Exogenous application of MT and MeJA reduces oxidative stress, improves antioxidant defense system, and optimizes ethylene level, resulting in improved photosynthesis. MT is required for the MeJA-induced photosynthetic response of plants under heat stress.

Summary: Global climate change poses a threat to wheat productivity, requiring the breeding of disease resistance to maintain crop yields; multi-disease resistance will be crucial, and future resistance breeding strategies need to be adjusted based on disease risks and climate change.

Summary: Appropriate nitrogen fertilization positively affects wheat yield, but excessive nitrogen leads to decreased stem resistance and yield. This study aimed to understand why high nitrogen fertilization increases the risk of stem lodging and how it regulates carbon allocation to balance yield and stem quality. The results showed that while nitrogen increased soluble sugar content in leaves, stems couldn't fully utilize the carbohydrates produced by leaves to synthesize sufficient lignin and cellulose, resulting in poor stem quality.

Summary: The intensive development of nanotechnology has led to the widespread use of nanoparticles in various fields. This study demonstrates that gold nanoparticles can enhance the freezing tolerance of plants, acting as adaptogens. By soaking wheat seeds in solutions of gold nanoparticles, an increase in freezing tolerance of wheat seedlings was observed. The study also establishes a relationship between the increase in freezing tolerance and changes in important indicators for growth, photosynthetic activity, oxidative processes, and sugar accumulation in the seedlings.

Summary: This study demonstrates that gold nanoparticles (GNPs) enhance the freezing tolerance of wheat seedlings by altering their redox status. Among the tested concentrations (5, 10, 20, and 50 µg ml(-1)) of GNPs, a concentration of 20 µg ml(-1) has the most pronounced beneficial effect on the growth and survival rate of the seedlings.
