“…This osmotic stress can disrupt cellular processes essential for germination, such as enzyme activity, protein synthesis, and membrane integrity 30 . Furthermore, excessive sodium uptake at high NaCl concentrations can lead to ion toxicity, causing imbalances in cellular ion concentrations and metabolic disturbances 31 . These physiological disruptions ultimately hinder seed germination and seedling growth, decreasing vigor and vitality.…”

The excessive accumulation of sodium chloride (NaCl) in soil can result in soil salinity, which poses a significant challenge to plant growth and crop production due to impaired water and nutrient uptake. On the other hand, hydropriming (WP) and low level of NaCl priming can improve the germination of seeds, chlorophyll contents, oil and seed yield in plants. That’s why this study investigates the impact of hydro and different levels of NaCl (0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0%) priming, as pre-treatment techniques on canola seeds germination, growth and yield of two varieties Punjab and Faisal Canola. Results showed that, WP performed significant best for increase in germination (~ 20 and ~ 22%) and shoot length (~ 6 and ~ 10%) over non-priming (NP) in Punjab Canola and Faisal Canola respectively. A significant increase in plant height (~ 6 and ~ 7%), root length (~ 1 and ~ 7%), shoot fresh weight (~ 5 and ~ 7%), root fresh weight (~ 6 and ~ 7%) in Punjab Canola and Faisal Canola respectively. It was also observed that plants under WP and 0.5%NaCl priming were also better in production of seed yield per plant, oil contents, silique per plant, seeds per silique, and branches per plant chlorophyll contents and leaf relative water contents over NP. In conclusion, WP and 0.5%NaCl has potential to improve the germination, growth, yield and oil attributes of canola compared to non-priming, 1.0%NaCl priming, 1.5%NaCl priming and 2.0%NaCl priming.

Fused sulfur heterocycles, such as triazolothiadiazoles, contain four nitrogen atoms and one sulfur atom as heteroatoms in their structure. These elements impart electron-donating and electron-withdrawing properties, influencing the reactivity and chemical behaviour of the compounds. Such effects contribute to various chemical interactions, including coordination with metals and hydrogen bonding. For example, in drug discovery, these interactions play a role in binding with proteins through non-covalent interactions. Additionally, the electronic properties of this heterocycle can interact with plant pathogens, showing potential for applications in the agricultural sector. This chapter discusses the structural significance of triazolothiadiazoles and how they affect their reactivity, as well as their biological importance in medicinal and agricultural contexts. The triazolothiadiazole heterocycle shows significant promise for medicinal as well as agricultural applications, warranting further exploration.
