“…Several studies have reported increased germination under drought in wheat [ 13 ], alfalfa [ 50 ], and rapeseed ( Brassica napus L.) [ 51 ]. Sheteiwy et al [ 52 ] reported beneficial cold plasma effects on germination, seedling vigor index values, shoot, and root lengths, and the activity of antioxidative enzymes (CAT, APX, SOD, and POD) in rice under 150 mM NaCl.…”

“…Cold plasma treatment (CPT) has been found to accelerate the growth of alfalfa [ 50 ] and oilseed rape [ 51 ] under drought conditions (15% PEG). Moreover, in a salt stress study, CPT showed the potential to re-establish cell turgidity in rice [ 52 ]. Further, in another study, NTP technology, combined with salinity, induced the expression of heat shock factor A4A (HSFA4A) in roots and shoots, enhanced the biomass, alleviated chlorophyll degradation, and increased phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) in wheat [ 54 ].…”

The environmentally friendly, physical method of high voltage electrical discharge (HVED) was developed to improve the drought and salinity tolerance of two wheat genotypes. Unlike other plasma technologies, HVED treatment involves the discharge of electricity in water. In this study, the effect of HVED pretreatment on wheat germination and early vegetative growth under drought (0%, 15%, 20% and 30% PEG) and salinity (0, 90, 160 and 230 mM NaCl) stress conditions was investigated. HVED-exposed seeds showed altered seed surfaces and became more permeable to water uptake, resulting in higher germination percentages, germination index values, and shoot and root growth under the control and all drought and salinity concentrations. Moreover, the electrical conductivity of the water medium increased significantly, indicating HVED-induced reactions of ionization and dissociations of water molecules occurred. In addition, HVED pretreatment in the salt experiment improved the tolerance index values of the shoots and roots. The most pronounced genotypic variations occurred under the highest stress levels (30% PEG or 230 mM NaCl) and varied with the stress intensity and growth stage. The study results indicate that HVED pretreatment has the potential to improve drought and salt tolerance in wheat.

Background The present study aims to study the effects of biofertilizers potential of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) and Bradyrhizobium japonicum (B. japonicum) strains on yield and growth of drought stressed soybean (Giza 111) plants at early pod stage (50 days from sowing, R3) and seed development stage (90 days from sowing, R5). Results Highest plant biomass, leaf chlorophyll content, nodulation, and grain yield were observed in the unstressed plants as compared with water stressed-plants at R3 and R5 stages. At soil rhizosphere level, AMF and B. japonicum treatments improved bacterial counts and the activities of the enzymes (dehydrogenase and phosphatase) under well-watered and drought stress conditions. Irrespective of the drought effects, AMF and B. japonicum treatments improved the growth and yield of soybean under both drought (restrained irrigation) and adequately-watered conditions as compared with untreated plants. The current study revealed that AMF and B. japonicum improved catalase (CAT) and peroxidase (POD) in the seeds, and a reverse trend was observed in case of malonaldehyde (MDA) and proline under drought stress. The relative expression of the CAT and POD genes was up-regulated by the application of biofertilizers treatments under drought stress condition. Interestingly a reverse trend was observed in the case of the relative expression of the genes involved in the proline metabolism such as P5CS, P5CR, PDH, and P5CDH under the same conditions. The present study suggests that biofertilizers diminished the inhibitory effect of drought stress on cell development and resulted in a shorter time for DNA accumulation and the cycle of cell division. There were notable changes in the activities of enzymes involved in the secondary metabolism and expression levels of GmSPS1, GmSuSy, and GmC-INV in the plants treated with biofertilizers and exposed to the drought stress at both R3 and R5 stages. These changes in the activities of secondary metabolism and their transcriptional levels caused by biofertilizers may contribute to increasing soybean tolerance to drought stress. Conclusions The results of this study suggest that application of biofertilizers to soybean plants is a promising approach to alleviate drought stress effects on growth performance of soybean plants. The integrated application of biofertilizers may help to obtain improved resilience of the agro ecosystems to adverse impacts of climate change and help to improve soil fertility and plant growth under drought stress.
