“…Apart from the evident economic importance, Villorita is also considered an excellent sentinel organism, monitoring ecotoxicological changes and ensuring ecosystem health 15 , 16 . Recent studies have discovered elevated levels of metals in black clams, leading to concerns about the overall health of the ecosystem 17 . Moreover, numerous earlier investigations have emphasized the substantial buildup and susceptibility of black clams to biologically essential metals like zinc (Zn) and copper (Cu) 18 , 19 .…”

The Indian black clam Villorita cyprinoides Gray, 1825, is an economically valuable estuarine bivalve that faces challenges from multiple stressors and anthropogenic pressures. However, limited genomic resources have hindered molecular investigations into the impact of these stressors on clam populations. Here, we have generated the first transcriptomic reference datasets for V. cyprinoides to address this knowledge gap. A total of 25,040,592 and 22,486,217 million Illumina paired-end reads generated from two individuals were assembled using Trinity and rnaSPAdes. From the 47,607 transcripts identified as Coding Domain Sequences, 37,487 returned positive BLAST hits against six different databases. Additionally, a total of 14,063 Single Sequence Repeats were identified using GMATA. This study significantly enhances the genetic understanding of V. cyprinoides, a potential candidate for aquaculture that supports the livelihoods of many people dependent on small-scale fisheries. The data generated provides insights into broader genealogical connections within the family Cyrenidae through comparative transcriptomics. Furthermore, this transcriptional profile serves as baseline data for future studies in toxicological and conservation genetics.

“…The Pb is considered the second harmful heavy metal after arsenic (Pourrut et al, 2011). Plants suffer from Pb toxicity in contaminated soils, thereby, it reduces nutrient uptake, photosynthesis, plant growth and development, water and ion balance, enzyme activity, membrane stability and permeability (Bharwana et al, 2013;Ashraf et al, 2015;Javed et al, 2018;Yin et al, 2018;Neethu et al, 2020) and induces lipid peroxidation, osmotic stress depending on the synthesis of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and ethylene (Verma and Dubey, 2003;Huihui et al, 2020).…”

The usage of plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) in mitigation of harmful effects of lead (Pb) toxicity in plants and bioremediation of it from soils is a sustainable, effective and low-cost strategy. The experiment was laid out to investigate the role of PGPB on morphological and physiological growth, root system architecture and nodulation of lentil under Pb stress. The experiment was conducted according to completely randomized factorial design with four replications at the laboratory of the Field Crops Department, Siirt University, Siirt in 2022. The four Pb levels and three bacterial inoculations were used in the experiment. Plant height, seedling fresh weight, root fresh weight, seedling dry weight, root dry weight, total chlorophyll content, taproot length, number of lateral roots, total root length and number of nodule varied between 15.
