“…30 On the other hand, SLs increase the fixation of CO 2 by maintaining an acid/base balance 94 while enhancing antioxidant activities for the smooth functioning of PSII. 30 Additionally, SLs can enhance the antioxidant system and chlorophyll production to improve photosynthetic characteristics. 22 ZnO NPs under Cd stress allows plants to retain their electron pool, which allows them to maintain gas exchange characteristics and to decrease PSII photoinhibition.…”

“…Remediation of HMs-contaminated soils mainly uses physical and chemical methods, such as immobilization, soil washing, chemical leaching, and stabilization ( Faizan et al, 2022 ). These methods aim to remove HMs from the soil, or to reduce HMs concentration to a safe level, or to inactivate HM mobility.…”

Planting aromatic plant might be a promising strategy for safely utilizing heavy metal (HM)-contaminated soils, as HMs in essential oil could be completely excluded using some special technologies with ease. Clove basil (Ocimum gratissimum L.) is an important aromatic plant used in essential oil production. Improving cadmium (Cd) tolerance in clove basil can increase its production and improve the utilization efficiency of Cd-contaminated soils. However, the lack of genomic information on clove basil greatly restricts molecular studies and applications in phytoremediation. In this study, we demonstrated that high levels of Cd treatments (0.8, 1.6 and 6.5 mg/L) significantly impacted the growth and physiological attributes of clove basil. Cd contents in clove basil tissues increased with treatment concentrations. To identify Cd stress-responsive genes, we conducted a comparative transcriptomic analysis using seedlings cultured in the Hoagland’s solution without Cd ion (control) or containing 1.6 mg/L CdCl2 (a moderate concentration of Cd stress for clove basil seedlings). A total of 104.38 Gb clean data with high-quality were generated in clove basil under Cd stress through Illumina sequencing. More than 1,800 differential expressed genes (DEGs) were identified after Cd treatment. The reliability and reproducibility of the transcriptomic data were validated through qRT-PCR analysis and Sanger sequencing. KEGG classification analysis identified the “MAPK signaling pathway,” “plant hormone signal transduction” and “plant-pathogen interaction” as the top three pathways. DEGs were divided into five clusters based on their expression patterns during Cd stress. The functional annotation of DEGs indicated that downregulated DEGs were mainly involved in the “photosynthesis system,” whereas upregulated DEGs were significantly assigned to the “MAPK signaling pathway” and “plant-pathogen interaction pathway.” Furthermore, we identified a total of 78 transcription factors (TFs), including members of bHLH, WRKY, AP2/ERF, and MYB family. The expression of six bHLH genes, one WRKY and one ERF genes were significantly induced by Cd stress, suggesting that these TFs might play essential roles in regulating Cd stress responses. Overall, our study provides key genetic resources and new insights into Cd adaption mechanisms in clove basil.
