Improving fruit quality and reducing pre-harvest fruit drop are critical goals for Citrus reticulata production in Pakistan, where climatic and nutritional challenges affect yield and juice quality. This study evaluated the combined effects of plant growth regulators (salicylic acid and indole acetic acid) and nutrients (potassium and zinc) on frui...

SUPPRESSOR OF MAX2 1-LIKE (SMXL) proteins are negative regulators of strigolactone (SL) signal transduction that play an important role in regulating plant branching and responses to abiotic stress. Here, we studied the role of SMXL proteins in pear growth, development, and stress resistance. A total of 18 SMXL members were characterized in ‘duli’....

The increasing global population has heightened the demand for food, leading to escalated food production and, consequently, the generation of significant food waste. Factors such as rapid ripening, susceptibility to physiological disorders, and vulnerability to microbial attacks have been implicated as contributing to the accelerated senescence as...

The rocoto (Capsicum pubescens Ruiz & Pav.) (Solanaceae) is an endemic herbaceous chili pepper from Peru. Low yields of rocoto production are due to the low availability of certified seeds or the production of superior plant seedlings. Therefore, the present study aimed to establish an in vitro protocol for the regeneration and multiplication of ro...

Cannabis has been cultivated for thousands of years for a variety of purposes, including fiber, seeds, oil, and medicinal compounds. The cannabis industry is growing rapidly because several countries have recently legalized the use of cannabis. In these countries, the industry related to cannabinoid ingredients such as cannabidiol (CBD) and Δ9-tetr...

Conventional in vitro propagation using semisolid Murashige and Skoog (MS) culture systems is costly, labor-intensive, and requires substantial space for large-scale plant production. This study investigated the application of a temporary immersion bioreactor (TIB) system for the micropropagation of the banana cultivar Kluai Numwa Pakchong 50, as a...

Preharvest fruit drop is one of the main challenges in apple production as it can lead to extensive crop losses in commercially important cultivars including ‘Honeycrisp’. Plant growth regulators, such as aminoethoxyvinylglicine (AVG) and 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP), which hinder ethylene biosynthesis and perception, respectively, can control preh...

Drought is a major abiotic stress affecting plant growth and productivity worldwide. Henna (Lawsonia inermis L.) is an economically important plant species that is widely cultivated due to its natural dye properties and medicinal uses, and it is highly susceptible to drought stress, which limits its growth and development. This study was conducted ...

In the context of anthropogenic evolution, various sectors have been exploited to satisfy human needs and demands, often pushing them to the brink of deterioration and destruction. One such sector is agrochemicals, which have been increasingly employed to achieve higher yields and bridge the gap between food supply and demand. However, extensive an...

Plants are an important source for the discovery of novel natural growth regulators. We used activity screening to demonstrate that treatment of Nipponbare seeds with 25 μg/mL isopimaric acid significantly increased the resulting shoot length, root length, and shoot weight of rice seedlings by 11.37 ± 5.05%, 12.96 ± 7.63%, and 27.98 ± 10.88% and th...
