Organelle-nuclear retrograde signaling regulates gene expression, but its roles in specialized cells and integration with hormonal remain enigmatic. Here we show that the SAL1-PAP (3′-phosphoadenosine 5′- phosphate) pathway interacts abscisic acid (ABA) to regulate stomatal closure seed germination Arabidopsis. Genetically or exogenously manipulating PAP bypasses canonical components ABA Insensitive 1 (ABI1) Open Stomata (OST1); priming an alternative restores ABA-responsive ROS bursts, ion...
Glasshouse-based metabolic markers predict yield gap-based drought tolerance determined from multiseason and site field trials which could serve as a potential breeding tool for selecting drought-resilient crops.
Chloroplasts act as environmental sensors, enabling rapid plant stress responses through operational retrograde signaling. While these signals operate on minutes-to-hours' time scales, their cumulative impact and function across a plant's lifecycle in field conditions remains unknown. We investigated if signaling's transient changes to gene expression have effects by generating wheat mutants with primed SAL1-PAP pathway responsiveness. After confirming photosynthesis drought resilience under...
The study was conducted using multistage stratified, purposive cum random sampling procedure and hundred respondents were selected from a block of district. Primary data collected through personal interview technique required secondary information for the reference taken records available at district offices. Simple tabular, functional analysis Garrett ranking method used to cook inferences. As per results found seen analysis, lack technical knowledge as first rank followed by labor...
