Drought has severely impacted worldwide agricultural land, resulting in substantial yield loss and abiotic pressures in crops such as Chinese cabbage. Paclobutrazol (PBZ) and plant growth-stimulating bacteria have been extensively recommended to reduce a variety of stresses in crops. Considering these facts, we used PBZ and rhizobacterium Variovorax sp. YNA59, a microbe with potential plant growth-stimulating qualities, in Chinese cabbage under drought stress and non-stressed conditions, and we observed their impacts on morphological and physiological attributes. Our findings revealed a considerable improvement in total plant biomass growth after treatment with YNA59 (28%) and PBZ (8%) under drought conditions. In contrast, negative results of PBZ were observed under normal conditions, suppressing plant growth and reducing plant biomass. The increase in physiological parameters, such as chlorophyll content, relative water content, and photochemical efficiencies of PS II, were observed in YNA59-treated plants, followed by PBZ, especially under drought. Furthermore, drought stress significantly increased the endogenous phytohormone abscisic acid level, whereas PBZ and YNA59 inoculations significantly decreased it. Antioxidant analysis revealed that PBZ and YNA increased glutathione and catalase and decreased polyphenol oxidase and peroxidase levels. These findings suggested that rhizobacterium YNA59 could be more significant for conferring water stress in the Chinese cabbage plant than PBZ.

“…The ability of the bZIP group of transcription factors to bind to DNA is facilitated by the presence of a leucine zipper motif at the C-terminus and a conserved essential region with a basic leucine zipper (bZIP) domain at the N-terminus [ 226 ]. These defining properties are located at the C-terminus and N-terminus of the factor, respectively [ 226 ].…”

One of the most significant environmental challenges to crop growth and yield worldwide is soil salinization. Salinity lowers soil solution water potential, causes ionic disequilibrium and specific ion effects, and increases reactive oxygen species (ROS) buildup, causing several physiological and biochemical issues in plants. Plants have developed biological and molecular methods to combat salt stress. Salt-signaling mechanisms regulated by phytohormones may provide additional defense in salty conditions. That discovery helped identify the molecular pathways that underlie zinc-oxide nanoparticle (ZnO-NP)-based salt tolerance in certain plants. It emphasized the need to study processes like transcriptional regulation that govern plants’ many physiological responses to such harsh conditions. ZnO-NPs have shown the capability to reduce salinity stress by working with transcription factors (TFs) like AP2/EREBP, WRKYs, NACs, and bZIPs that are released or triggered to stimulate plant cell osmotic pressure-regulating hormones and chemicals. In addition, ZnO-NPs have been shown to reduce the expression of stress markers such as malondialdehyde (MDA) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) while also affecting transcriptional factors. Those systems helped maintain protein integrity, selective permeability, photosynthesis, and other physiological processes in salt-stressed plants. This review examined how salt stress affects crop yield and suggested that ZnO-NPs could reduce plant salinity stress instead of osmolytes and plant hormones.

“…This part summarizes the general properties of naturally poor or anthropogenic contaminated soils and their effects on plant growth [7]. However, rice as a most sensitive cereal crop to salinity, it is recommended to be grown in salt-affected soils because salinity is often accompanied by waterlogged conditions [13]. Water plays an important role in irrigated rice tends to dissolve the salt molecules, and move out them as runoff or leach them down of paddy fields, and hence reducing salt levels in the rice field [14].…”

Soil with poor physio-chemical and biological properties prevent plant growth. These poor characteristics may be due to soil creation processes, but also include largely inappropriate agricultural practices and/or anthropogenic pollution. During the last 4 decades, the world has lost one-third of its cropland due to pollution and erosion. Therefore, a series of operations is required to improve and recover the soil. Biochar is a new multifunctional carbon material extensively used as a modifier to improve soil quality and crop production. Previous studies have discussed the properties of biochar with varying soil pollutants and their effects on soil productivity and carbon sequestration. Comparatively, little attention has been paid to the effects of biochar application on rice growth in the problem of soils, especially in the saline-sodic soils. A comprehensive review of the literature with a high focusing on the effects of biochar application on problem soils and rice-growing under salinity conditions is needed. The present review gives an overview of the soil's problem, biochar amendment effects on physicochemical properties of soil, and how the biochar amendment could interact in soil microbes and root with remediation under salinity conditions for improving rice productivity. The findings of this review showed that biochar application can improve soil quality, reduce soil's problem and increase rice production under salinity conditions. It is anticipated that further researches on the biochar amendment will increase our understanding of the interactions of biochar with soil components, accelerate our attempts on soil remediation, and improve rice production under salinity conditions.
