Abstract
Polyporaceae is an important fungal family that has been a source of natural products with a range of pharmaceutical activities in China. In our previous study, two polysaccharides, PCWPW and PCWPS, with significant antioxidant and antidepressant activity were obtained from Poria cocos. In this study, we evaluated their potential molecular mechanisms in the immunomodulation of macrophages. PCWPW and PCWPS were characterized by GC-MS analysis to contain 1,3-linked Glcp. ELISA assays results demonstrated that the secretion of TNF-α was significantly enhanced by PCWPW/PCWPS. RNA-seq data demonstrated that PCWPS treatment modulated the expression of immune-related genes in macrophages, which was further confirmed by RT-qPCR assays. The activation of TNF-α secretion was found to be mannose receptor (MR) dependent and suppressed by MR inhibitor pretreatment. Moreover, the amount of TNF-α cytokine secretion in PCWPW/PCWPS-induced RAW264.7 cells was decreased when pretreated with NF-κB or MAPK signaling pathway inhibitors. Collectively, our results suggested that PCWPW and PCWPS possessed immunomodulatory activity that regulates TNF-α expression through the NF-κB/MAPK signaling pathway by binding to mannose receptors. Therefore, PCWPW and PCWPS isolated from Poria cocos have potential as drug candidates for immune-related disease treatment.

Abstract
Soil salinization is a global environmental issue and a significant abiotic stress that threatens crop production. Root-associated rhizosphere microbiota play a pivotal role in enhancing plant tolerance to abiotic stresses. However, limited information is available concerning the specific variations in rhizosphere microbiota driven by different plant genotypes (varieties) in response to varying levels of salinity stress. In this study, we compared the growth performance of three alfalfa varieties with varying salt tolerance levels in soils with different degrees of salinization. High-throughput 16S rRNA and ITS sequencing were employed to analyze the rhizosphere microbial communities. Undoubtedly, the increasing salinity significantly inhibited alfalfa growth and reduced rhizosphere microbial diversity. However, intriguingly, salt-tolerant varieties exhibited relatively lower susceptibility to salinity, maintaining more stable rhizosphere bacterial community structure, whereas the reverse was observed for salt-sensitive varieties. Bacillus emerged as the dominant species in alfalfa's adaptation to salinity stress, constituting 21.20% of the shared bacterial genera among the three varieties. The higher abundance of Bacillus, Ensifer, and Pseudomonas in the rhizosphere of salt-tolerant alfalfa varieties is crucial in determining their elevated salt tolerance. As salinity levels increased, salt-sensitive varieties gradually accumulated a substantial population of pathogenic fungi, such as Fusarium and Rhizoctonia. Furthermore, rhizosphere bacteria of salt-tolerant varieties exhibited increased activity in various metabolic pathways, including biosynthesis of secondary metabolites, carbon metabolism, and biosynthesis of amino acids. It is suggested that salt-tolerant alfalfa varieties can provide more carbon sources to the rhizosphere, enriching more effective plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) such as Pseudomonas to mitigate salinity stress. In conclusion, our results highlight the variety-mediated enrichment of rhizosphere microbiota in response to salinity stress, confirming that the high-abundance enrichment of specific dominant rhizosphere microbes and their vital roles play a significant role in conferring high salt adaptability to these varieties.

PLoS One 2023; 18:e0290752.

Abstract
We analyzed the expression of genes coding for Na+ transporters (OsHKT1.5, OsHKT1.1, OsSOS1, OsSOS2, OsNHX1, OsNHX2), Cl- transporter (OsNRT1, OsCLC, OsCCC1) and gene coding for the transcription factor DREB (OsDREB2) involved in response to desiccation in two cultivars of O. glaberrrima differing in salt-resistance (salt-tolerant cultivar (TOG5307) and salt-sensitive (TOG 5949)) exposed to NaCl, PEG or both agents present simultaneously. Seedlings were grown in iso-osmotic nutrient solution (Ψs = -0.47±0.02 MPa) containing PEG 6,000 12.9% (water stress), NaCl 75 mM (salt stress) and PEG 6.4% + NaCl 37.5 mM (MIX-treatment) during 1 and 7 days. Plants were analyzed for gene expression, mineral nutrients, and photosynthetic-related parameters. Na+ and Cl- accumulations in salt-treated plants were lower in roots and shoots of TOG5307 comparatively to TOG5949 while water content decreased in TOG5307. TOG5307 exhibited tolerance to water stress and maintained higher net photosynthesis and water use efficiency than TOG5949 in response to all treatments, but was less efficient for osmotic adjustment. Dehydration tolerance of TOG5307 involves a higher OsDREB2 expression. TOG5307 also exhibited a higher OsSOS1, OsSOS2, OsNHX1 and OsNHX2 expression than TOG5949 in response to salinity. OsHKT1.5 was slightly induced in the shoot. OsHKT1.1 was recorded in the shoots but remained undetectable in the roots. Chloride and sodium accumulations were strongly reduced in the shoots when PEG was present. Salinity resistance in Oryza glaberrima implies tolerance to dehydration as well as complementary strategies of Na+ exclusion through the SOS system and Na+ tolerance through vacuolar sequestration.

Abstract
Salt stress is one unfavorable factor of global climate change that adversely affects rice plant growth and yield. To identify novel salt-tolerant genes and new varieties of salt-tolerant rice, a better understanding of the molecular regulation mechanism of salt tolerance in rice is needed. In this study we used transcriptome analyses to examine changes in gene expression of salt-tolerant and salt-sensitive rice plants. The salt-tolerant cultivar HH11 and salt-sensitive cultivar IR29 were treated with 200 mM NaCl solution for 0 h, 6 h, 24 h and 48 h at the three leaf stage. Physiological parameters and transcriptome were measured and analyzed after each treatment. Activity of SOD and POD, as well as the MDA and protein content of the two rice cultivars generally increased with increasing time of exposure to NaCl. Meanwhile, the APX activity first increased, then decreased in both cultivars, with maximum values seen at 6 h for IR29 and at 24 h for HH11. The GR and GPX activity of HH11 were stronger than that of IR29 in response to salt stress. The H2O2 content first increased at 0-6 h, then decreased at 6-24 h, and then increased again at 24-48 h under salt stress. Compared with IR29, SOD, POD and APX activity of HH11 was more sluggish in response to salt stress, reaching the maximum at 24 h or 48 h. The MDA, H2O2 and proline content of HH11 was lower than that of IR29 under salt stress. Relative to untreated HH11 plants (0 h) and those exposed to salt for 6 h, 24 h, and 48 h (H0-H6, H0-H24 and H0-H48), 7462, 6363 and 6636, differentially expressed genes (DEGs), respectively, were identified. For IR29, the respective total DEGs were 7566, 6075 and 6136. GO and KEGG enrichment analysis showed that metabolic pathways related to antioxidative responses and osmotic balance played vital roles in salt stress tolerance. Sucrose and starch metabolism, in addition to flavonoid biosynthesis and glutathione metabolism, showed positive responses to salt stress. Expression of two SPS genes (LOC_Os01g69030 and LOC_Os08g20660) and two GST genes (LOC_Os06g12290 and LOC_Os10g38740) was up-regulated in both HH11 and IR29, whereas expression of LOC_Os09g12660, a glucose-1-phosphate adenylyltransferase gene, and two SS genes (LOC_Os04g17650 and LOC_Os04g24430) was up-regulated differential expression in HH11. The results showed that HH11 had more favorable adjustment in antioxidant and osmotic activity than IR29 upon exposure to salt stress, and highlighted candidate genes that could play roles in the function and regulation mechanism of salt tolerance in rice.

Abstract
Salinity is an imbalanced concentration of mineral salts in the soil or water that causes yield loss in salt-sensitive crops. Rice plant is vulnerable to soil salinity stress at seedling and reproductive stages. Different non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) post-transcriptionally regulate different sets of genes during different developmental stages under varying salinity tolerance levels. While microRNAs (miRNAs) are well known small endogenous ncRNAs, tRNA-derived RNA fragments (tRFs) are an emerging class of small ncRNAs derived from tRNA genes with a demonstrated regulatory role, like miRNAs, in humans but unexplored in plants. Circular RNA (circRNA), another ncRNA produced by back-splicing events, acts as target mimics by preventing miRNAs from binding with their target mRNAs, thereby reducing the miRNA's action upon its target. Same may hold true between circRNAs and tRFs. Hence, the work done on these ncRNAs was reviewed and no reports were found for circRNAs and tRFs under salinity stress in rice, either at seedling or reproductive stages. Even the reports on miRNAs are restricted to seedling stage only, in spite of severe effects on rice crop production due to salt stress during reproductive stage. Moreover, this review sheds light on strategies to predict and analyze these ncRNAs in an effective manner.

Abstract
Plant responses to salt exposure involve large reconfigurations of hormonal pathways that orchestrate physiological changes towards tolerance. Jasmonate (JA) hormones are essential to withstand biotic and abiotic assaults, but their roles in salt tolerance remain unclear. Here we describe the dynamics of JA metabolism and signaling in root and leaf tissue of rice, a plant species that is highly exposed and sensitive to salt. Roots activate the JA pathway in an early pulse, while the second leaf displays a biphasic JA response with peaks at 1 h and 3 d post-exposure. Based on higher salt tolerance of a rice JA-deficient mutant (aoc), we examined, through kinetic transcriptome and physiological analysis, the salt-triggered processes that are under JA control. Profound genotype-differential features emerged that could underlie the observed phenotypes. Abscisic acid (ABA) content and ABA-dependent water deprivation responses were impaired in aoc shoots. Moreover, aoc accumulated more Na+ in roots, and less in leaves, with reduced ion translocation correlating with root derepression of the HAK4 Na+ transporter gene. Distinct reactive oxygen species scavengers were also stronger in aoc leaves, along with reduced senescence and chlorophyll catabolism markers. Collectively, our results identify contrasted contributions of JA signaling to different sectors of the salt stress response in rice.

Abstract
Salt stress poses physiological drought, ionic toxicity and oxidative stress to plants, which causes premature senescence and death of the leaves if the stress sustained. Salt tolerance varied between different rice varieties, but how different rice varieties respond at the early stage of salt stress has been seldom studied comprehensively. By employing third generation sequencing technology, we compared gene expressional changes in leaves of three rice varieties that varied in their level of tolerance after salt stress treatment for 6 h. Commonly up-regulated genes in all rice varieties were related to water shortage response and carbon and amino acids metabolism at the early stage of salt stress, while reactive oxygen species cleavage genes were induced more in salt-tolerant rice. Unexpectedly, genes involved in chloroplast development and photosynthesis were more significantly down-regulated in the two salt tolerant rice varieties 'C34' and 'Nona Bokra'. At the same time, genes coding ribosomal protein were suppressed to a more severe extent in the salt-sensitive rice variety 'IR29'. Interestingly, not only variety-specific gene transcriptional regulation, but also variety-specific mRNA alternative splicing, on both coding and long-noncoding genes, were found at the early stage of salt stress. In summary, differential regulation in gene expression at both transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels, determine and fine-tune the observed response in level of damage in leaves of specific rice genotypes at early stage of salt stress.
