“…According to [34,93] studies, drought stress has reduced the concentration of carotenoids in higher plants. Carotenes are classified into two types: hydro-carbon carotenes [83], which include lycopene and xanthophylls, and carotene, which differs from the former due to the inclusion of lutein.…”

In addition to transcriptome investigations, proteomics has emerged as the most direct and consequential approach for acquiring protein expression information on plants' responses to drought stress [93]. Comparing proteomics of drought-tolerant and sensitive wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genotypes is one technique for assessing the complexity of molecular pathways in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) crop in response to drought stress [143].…”

Water, a necessary component of cell protoplasm, plays an essential role in supporting life on Earth; nevertheless, extreme changes in climatic conditions limit water availability, causing numerous issues, such as the current water-scarce regimes in many regions of the biome. This review aims to collect data from various published studies in the literature to understand and critically analyze plants’ morphological, growth, yield, and physio-biochemical responses to drought stress and their potential to modulate and nullify the damaging effects of drought stress via activating natural physiological and biochemical mechanisms. In addition, the review described current breakthroughs in understanding how plant hormones influence drought stress responses and phytohormonal interaction through signaling under water stress regimes. The information for this review was systematically gathered from different global search engines and the scientific literature databases Science Direct, including Google Scholar, Web of Science, related studies, published books, and articles. Drought stress is a significant obstacle to meeting food demand for the world’s constantly growing population. Plants cope with stress regimes through changes to cellular osmotic potential, water potential, and activation of natural defense systems in the form of antioxidant enzymes and accumulation of osmolytes including proteins, proline, glycine betaine, phenolic compounds, and soluble sugars. Phytohormones modulate developmental processes and signaling networks, which aid in acclimating plants to biotic and abiotic challenges and, consequently, their survival. Significant progress has been made for jasmonates, salicylic acid, and ethylene in identifying important components and understanding their roles in plant responses to abiotic stress. Other plant hormones, such as abscisic acid, auxin, gibberellic acid, brassinosteroids, and peptide hormones, have been linked to plant defense signaling pathways in various ways.

“…China, USA, India, Turkey, and Egypt are the top five tomato-producing countries. Tomato is cultivated in greenhouses, house gardens, and open fields [ 3 ] and is a good provider of vitamins (A, B, C, and K), minerals (Cu, K, Mn, Mg, P, Fe, and Zn) and other micronutrients that can act as an antioxidant to help prevent diseases [ 4 ]. Tomato can grow in a broad spectrum of environmental conditions, it has a relatively short life cycle, hybridizations are simple, and cultivars with diverse characteristics are available.…”

Late blight disease, caused by Phytophthora infestans (Mont.) de Bary, is one of the most challenging diseases threatening tomato production and other Solanaceae crops. Resistance to late blight is found in certain wild species, but the mechanism behind the resistance is not fully understood. The aim of this study was to examine the metabolic profiles in the leaf tissue of late blight-resistant wild tomato and to investigate if leaf extracts from such genotypes could be used to control late blight in tomato production. We included three recognized late blight-resistant wild tomato accessions of Solanum habrochaites (LA1777, LA2855, and LA1352) and two recognized highly susceptible genotypes, S. lycopersicum (‘Super Strain B’) and S. pimpinellifolium (LA0375). The metabolic profiles were obtained in both inoculated and non-inoculated plants by analyzing leaf extracts using high-resolution gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) with three replicate analyses of each genotype. We focused on volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and identified 31 such compounds from the five genotypes with a retention time ranging from 6.6 to 22.8 min. The resistant genotype LA 1777 produced the highest number of VOCs (22 and 21 in the inoculated and control plants, respectively), whereas the susceptible genotype ‘Super Strain B’ produced the lowest number of VOCs (11 and 13 in the respective plants). Among the VOCs, 14 were detected only in the resistant genotypes, while two were detected only in the susceptible ones. In vitro trials, with the use of a detached leaflet assay and whole-plant approach, were conducted. We revealed promising insights regarding late blight management and showed that metabolic profiling may contribute to a better understanding of the mechanisms behind P. infestans resistance in tomato and its wild relatives.

“…Tomato is the second most economically important vegetable grown worldwide, it forms a significant part of the agricultural industry and is also the 2 of 21 second most consumed vegetable. It is known that tomato production is increased considerably worldwide [2][3][4][5]. In Jordan, a wide range of tomato cultivars and accessions were gathered from farmers and stored in the seed bank at the National Agricultural Research Center (NARC) [6][7][8].…”

“…These insights have provided the breeders with new knowledge and tools for plant improvement and the ability to detect the variation between species, varieties, and accessions; for example, using several types of DNA molecular markers can be used such as random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP), amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP), minisatellites, variable number of tandem repeats (VNTRs), and simple sequence repeats (SSRs) [11,[19][20][21]. SSRs are sections of DNA consisting of (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6) or (2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7) base pair units tandemly repeated throughout the genome [20,[22][23][24], to detect the variation degree [9,21,24] or phylogenetic [25][26][27]. The hypervariability character of SSR markers, based on microsatellite DNA loci, enables this method to be the main major in studying plant population genetics [8,20,[28][29][30][31].…”

Exploring the genetic diversity among plant accessions is important for conserving and managing plant genetic resources. In the current study, a collection of forty-six tomato accessions from Jordan were evaluated based on their performance and their morpho-physiological, in addition to molecularly characterizing to detect genetic diversity. Tomato accessions seedlings were exposed to drought stress with 70% field capacity and 40% field capacity under field conditions in Jordan. Drought stress had significantly negatively influenced the dry root weight, fresh root weight, root growth rate, fresh shoot weight, dry shoot weight, and shoot growth rate. Moreover, proline content showed a highly significant increase of 304.2% in response to drought stress. The analysis of twenty morphological characters revealed a wide range of variations among tomato accessions. Accessions were screened with fourteen SSR primers; six primers were informative to explain the genetic diversity. Based on resolving power, primers LEct004 and LEat018 were most significant with all 46 accessions. Interestingly, polymorphic information content (PIC) values ranged from 0.00 (Asr2 marker) to 0.499 (LEct004), which confirms that the SSR markers are highly informative. Our findings provide new insights into using informative molecular markers to elucidate such wide genetic variation discovered in our collections from Afraa and Abeel (the southern part of Jordan). Interestingly, the SSR markers were associated with genes, e.g., LEat018 with ACTIN_RELATED PROTEIN gene, the LEct004 with the HOMEOBOX PROTEIN TRANSCRIPTION FACTORS gene, and Asr2 with ABA/WDS. Moreover, the AUXIN RESPONSE FACTOR8 gene was associated with the LEta014 SSR marker and the LEta020 with the THIOREDOXIN FAMILY TRP26 gene. Therefore, the genetic diversity analysis and functional annotations of the genes associated with SSR information obtained in this study provide valuable information about the most suitable genotype that can be implemented in plant breeding programs and future molecular analysis. Furthermore, evaluating the performance of the collection under different water regimes is essential to produce new tomato varieties coping with drought stress conditions.
