Abstract
Phytohormones, particularly cytokinin trans-zeatin (tZ), were studied for their impact on the green alga Desmodesmus armatus under cadmium (Cd) stress, focusing on growth, metal accumulation, and stress response mechanisms. Using atomic absorption spectroscopy for the Cd level and high-performance liquid chromatography for photosynthetic pigments and phytochelatins, along with spectrophotometry for antioxidants and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry for phytohormones, we found that tZ enhances Cd uptake in D. armatus, potentially improving phycoremediation of aquatic environments. Cytokinin mitigates Cd toxicity by regulating internal phytohormone levels and activating metal tolerance pathways, increasing phytochelatin synthase activity and phytochelatin accumulation essential for Cd sequestration. Treatment with tZ and Cd also resulted in increased cell proliferation, photosynthetic pigment and antioxidant levels, and antioxidant enzyme activities, reducing oxidative stress. This suggests that cytokinin-mediated mechanisms in D. armatus enhance its capacity for Cd uptake and tolerance, offering promising avenues for more effective aquatic phycoremediation techniques.

Abstract
This research studies the impacts of iron oxide nanoparticles (FeONPs) on alleviating the toxic effects of cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), and zinc (Zn) on summer savory (Satureja hortensis L.). Different types of soil additives, including bare and carboxymethylcellulose (CMC)-supported hematite (α-Fe2O3), goethite (α-FeOOH), and magnetite (Fe3O4), were applied at three rates (0, 0.25, and 0.5% w/w) to a Cd, Pb, and Zn-contaminated soil sample. The experimental results showed that the application of FeONPs increased plant height, dry weights of shoot and root, and yield and content of essential oil. Bare and CMC-supported FeONPs increased the content of K, P, and Fe in the aerial parts of summer savory. However, these soil additives reduced the contents of Cd, Pb, and Zn in plant tissues. CMC-supported FeONPs proved to be more efficient additives in diminishing the toxic effects of Cd, Pb, and Zn in summer savory compared to their bare forms. Bare and CMC-supported goethite NPs were able to restrict the uptake of Cd, Pb, and Zn by summer savory roots in the metal-contaminated soil. The application of CMC-supported goethite at an application dose of 0.5% (w/w) increased shoot dry weight, shoot concentrations of K, P, and Fe, and yield of essential oil by about 62.6, 76.6, 77.1, 210, and 230%, respectively. Conversely, they reduced shoot concentrations of Cd, Pb, and Zn by about 64.6, 68.7, and 40.6%, respectively, compared to the control. These are significant results and indicate that CMC-supported goethite is likely to be the most effective soil additive in diminishing the toxicity of Cd, Pb, and Zn to metal-stressed summer savory.

Abstract
Phytoremediation using plants is an environmentally friendly and cost-effective strategy for removing cadmium (Cd) from soil. Plants used for phytoremediation must have a high Cd accumulation capacity and strong Cd tolerance. Therefore, understanding the molecular mechanism of Cd tolerance and accumulation in plants is of great interest. In response to Cd exposure, plants produce various thio-rich compounds, such as glutathione, phytochelatins, and metallothioneins, which play important roles in Cd immobilization, sequestration, and detoxification. Therefore, sulfur (S) metabolism is crucial for Cd tolerance and accumulation. In this study, we report that the overexpression of low-S responsive genes, LSU1 and LSU2, confers Cd tolerance in Arabidopsis. First, LSU1 and LSU2 promoted S assimilation under Cd stress. Second, LSU1 and LSU2 inhibited the biosynthesis and promoted the degradation of aliphatic glucosinolates, which could limit the consumption and enhance the release of S, thus, facilitating the production of the S-rich metabolites, glutathione, phytochelatins, and metallothioneins. We further demonstrated that the Cd tolerance mediated by LSU1 and LSU2 was dependent on the myrosinases BGLU28 and BGLU30, which catalyze the degradation of aliphatic glucosinolates. In addition, the overexpression of LSU1 and LSU2 improved Cd accumulation, which has great potential for the phytoremediation of Cd-contaminated soil.

Abstract
Cadmium (Cd), one of the most widespread and water-soluble polluting heavy metals, has been widely studied on plants, even if the mechanisms underlying its phytotoxicity remain elusive. Indeed, most experiments are performed using extensive exposure time to the toxicants, not observing the primary targets affected. The present work studied Cd effects on Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh's root apical meristem (RAM) exposed for short periods (24h and 48h) to acute phytotoxic concentrations (100 and 150µM). The effects were studied through integrated morpho-histological, molecular, pharmacological and metabolomic analyses, highlighting that Cd inhibited primary root elongation by affecting the meristem zone via altering cell expansion. Moreover, Cd altered Auxin accumulation in RAM and affected PINs polar transporters particularly PIN2. In addition, we observed that high Cd concentration induced accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in roots, which resulted in an altered organization of cortical microtubules and the starch and sucrose metabolism, altering the statolith formation and, consequently, the gravitropic root response. Our results demonstrated that short Cd exposition (24h) affected cell expansion preferentially, altering auxin distribution and inducing ROS accumulation, which resulted in an alteration of gravitropic response and microtubules orientation pattern.

Abstract
The sustainable production of crops faces increasing challenges from global climate change and human activities, which leads to increasing instances of many abiotic stressors to plants. Among the abiotic stressors, drought, salinity and excessive levels of toxic metals cause reductions in global agricultural productivity and serious health risks for humans. Cytokinins (CKs) are key phytohormones functioning in both normal development and stress responses in plants. Here, we summarize the molecular mechanisms on the biosynthesis, metabolism, transport and signaling transduction pathways of CKs. CKs act as negative regulators of both root system architecture plasticity and root sodium exclusion in response to salt stress. The functions of CKs in mineral-toxicity tolerance and their detoxification in plants are reviewed. Comparative genomic analyses were performed to trace the origin, evolution and diversification of the critical regulatory networks linking CK signaling and abiotic stress. We found that the production of CKs and their derivatives, pathways of signal transduction and drought-response root growth regulation are evolutionarily conserved in land plants. In addition, the mechanisms of CK-mediated sodium exclusion under salt stress are suggested for further investigations. In summary, we propose that the manipulation of CK levels and their signaling pathways is important for plant abiotic stress and is, therefore, a potential strategy for meeting the increasing demand for global food production under changing climatic conditions.

Abstract
An in vitro experiment was conducted to determine the influence of phytohormones on the enhancement of bamboo resistance to heavy metal exposure (Cd and Cu). To this end, one-year-old bamboo plants (Pleioblastus pygmaeus (Miq.) Nakai.) contaminated by 100 µM Cd and 100 µM Cu both individually and in combination were treated with 10 µM, 6-benzylaminopurine and 10 µM abscisic acid. The results revealed that while 100 µM Cd and 100 µM Cu accelerated plant cell death and decreased plant growth and development, 10 µM 6-benzylaminopurine and 10 µM abscisic acid, both individually and in combination, increased plant growth by boosting antioxidant activities, non-antioxidants indices, tyrosine ammonia-lyase activity (TAL), as well as phenylalanine ammonia-lyase activity (PAL). Moreover, this combination enhanced protein thiol, total thiol, non-protein, glycine betaine (GB), the content of proline (Pro), glutathione (GSH), photosynthetic pigments (Chlorophyll and Carotenoids), fluorescence parameters, dry weight in shoot and root, as well as length of the shoot. It was then concluded that 6-benzyl amino purine and abscisic acid, both individually and in combination, enhanced plant tolerance under Cd and Cu through several key mechanisms, including increased antioxidant activity, improved photosynthesis properties, and decreased metals accumulation and metal translocation from root to shoot.

Abstract
As one kind of plant-specific transcription factors (TFs), WOX (Wuschel-related homeobox) plays an essential role in plant growth and development. In this study, 21 WOX TFs were identified in Brachypodium distachyon. They were divided into ancient, intermediate, and WUS clades based on phylogenetic analysis. These 21 BdWOX genes are mapped on 5 chromosomes unevenly. In the promoters, the most abundant cis-elements are ABRE, TGACG-motif, and G-box. qRT-PCR results showed that most BdWOX genes are expressed in vegetative and reproductive organs. Meanwhile, the expression of 14, 12, and 15 BdWOX genes are up-regulated by exogenous 6-BA, NAA, and GA, respectively. These results indicated that BdWOX genes participate in hormone signaling and regulate plant growth and development. Overexpression of BdWOX12 in Arabidopsis improved the root system, further indicating the functions of BdWOX genes in growth and development. This study provided a basis for the functional elucidation of BdWOX genes.

Global Analysis of the WOX Transcription Factor Gene Family in Populus × xiaohei T. S. Hwang et Liang Reveals Their Stress−Responsive Patterns. FORESTS 2022.

Abstract
The WUSCHEL−related homeobox (WOX) family is a group of plant−specific transcription factors that play important regulatory roles in embryo formation, stem cell stability, and organogenesis. To date, there are few studies on the molecular mechanisms involved in this family of genes in response to stress. Thus, in this study, eight WOX genes were obtained from an endemic Chinese resilient tree species, Populus × xiaohei T. S. Hwang et Liang. Bioinformatic analysis showed that the WOX genes all contained a conserved structural domain consisting of 60 amino acids, with some differences in physicochemical properties. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that WOX members were divided into three evolutionary clades, with four, one, and three members in the ancient, intermediate, and modern evolutionary clades, respectively. The conserved structural domain species as well as the organization and gene structure of WOX genes within the same subfamily were highly uniform. Chromosomal distribution and genome synteny analyses revealed seven segmental−duplicated gene pairs among the PsnWOX gene family that were mainly under purifying selection conditions. Semi−quantitative interpretation (SQ−PCR) analysis showed that the WOX gene was differentially expressed in different tissues, and it was hypothesized that the functions performed by different members were diverse. The family members were strongly and differentially expressed under CdCl2, NaCl, NaHCO3, and PEG treatments, suggesting that WOX genes function in various aspects of abiotic stress defense responses. These results provide a theoretical basis for investigating the morphogenetic effects and abiotic stress responses of this gene family in woody plants.

Brassinosteroids Mitigate Cadmium Effects in Arabidopsis Root System without Any Cooperation with Nitric Oxide. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23020825.

Abstract
The heavy metal cadmium (Cd) affects root system development and quiescent center (QC)-definition in Arabidopsis root-apices. The brassinosteroids-(BRs)-mediated tolerance to heavy metals has been reported to occur by a modulation of nitric oxide (NO) and root auxin-localization. However, how BRs counteract Cd-action in different root types is unknown. This research aimed to find correlations between BRs and NO in response to Cd in Arabidopsis’s root system, monitoring their effects on QC-definition and auxin localization in root-apices. To this aim, root system developmental changes induced by low levels of 24-epibrassinolide (eBL) or by the BR-biosynthesis inhibitor brassinazole (Brz), combined or not with CdSO4, and/or with the NO-donor nitroprusside (SNP), were investigated using morpho-anatomical and NO-epifluorescence analyses, and monitoring auxin-localization by the DR5::GUS system. Results show that eBL, alone or combined with Cd, enhances lateral (LR) and adventitious (AR) root formation and counteracts QC-disruption and auxin-delocalization caused by Cd in primary root/LR/AR apices. Exogenous NO enhances LR and AR formation in Cd-presence, without synergism with eBL. The NO-signal is positively affected by eBL, but not in Cd-presence, and BR-biosynthesis inhibition does not change the low NO-signal caused by Cd. Collectively, results show that BRs ameliorate Cd-effects on all root types acting independently from NO.
