Abstract
Sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum) is an important crop, native to tropical and subtropical regions and it is a major source of sugar and Bioenergy in the world. Abiotic stress is defined as environmental conditions that reduce growth and yield below the optimum level. To tolerate these abiotic stresses, plants initiate several molecular, cellular, and physiological changes. These responses to abiotic stresses are dynamic and complex; they may be reversible or irreversible. Waterlogging is an abiotic stress phenomenon that drastically reduces the growth and survival of sugarcane, which leads to a 15-45% reduction in cane's yield. The extent of damage due to waterlogging depends on genotypes, environmental conditions, stage of development and duration of stress. An improved understanding of the physiological, biochemical, and molecular responses of sugarcane to waterlogging stress could help to develop new breeding strategies to sustain high yields against this situation. The present review offers a summary of recent findings on the adaptation of sugarcane to waterlogging stress in terms of growth and development, yield and quality, as well as biochemical and adaptive-molecular processes that may contribute to flooding tolerance.

Abstract
The rapid expansion of urbanization and construction activities has led to a significant increase in cement production worldwide, resulting in a surge in cement waste generation. This study aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of the repercussions of cement waste on soil fertility and crop productivity, emphasizing its critical implications for global food security. Through a multidisciplinary approach, encompassing field surveys, laboratory experiments, and statistical modeling, we assess the physicochemical alterations induced by cement waste in agricultural soils. Our findings reveal substantial declines in crucial soil parameters, including pH levels, organic matter content, and nutrient availability, which directly translate into diminished crop yields. Furthermore, the study identifies key mechanisms underlying these detrimental effects, including altered microbial communities and disrupted nutrient cycling processes. In addition, the findings underscore the severity of the issue, revealing substantial declines in soil fertility and crop yields in areas affected by cement waste contamination. Additionally, we discuss potential mitigation strategies and policy interventions aimed at mitigating the adverse effects of cement waste on agricultural systems. By quantifying the extent of soil degradation and crop yield reduction attributed to cement waste, this research underscores the urgency for sustainable waste management practices and highlights the need for policy interventions to safeguard agricultural productivity and ensure global food security in the face of escalating urbanization and construction activities.

Abstract
The irradiation with millimeter-wave (MMW) of wheat seeds promotes root growth under flooding stress; however, its role is not completely clarified. Nuclear proteomics was performed, to reveal the role of MMW irradiation in enhancing flooding tolerance. The purity of nuclear fractions purified from roots was verified. Histone, which is a protein marker for nuclear-purification efficiency, was enriched; and cytosolic ascorbate peroxidase was reduced in the nuclear fraction. The principal-component analysis of proteome displayed that the irradiation of seeds affected nuclear proteins in roots grown under flooding stress. Proteins detected using proteomic analysis were verified using immunoblot analysis. Histone H3 accumulated under flooding stress; however, it decreased to the control level by irradiation. Whereas the ubiquitin accumulated in roots grown under stress when seeds were irradiated. These results suggest that MMW irradiation improves wheat-root growth under flooding stress through the regulation of mRNA-expression level and the ubiquitin-proteasome system.

Transcriptomic responses of oil palm ( Elaeis guineensis) stem to waterlogging at plantation in relation to precipitation seasonality. FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2023; 14:1213496.

Abstract
Global warming-induced climate change causes significant agricultural problems by increasing the incidence of drought and flooding events. Waterlogging is an inevitable consequence of these changes but its effects on oil palms have received little attention and are poorly understood. Recent waterlogging studies have focused on oil palm seedlings, with particular emphasis on phenology. However, the transcriptomic waterlogging response of mature oil palms remains elusive in real environments. We therefore investigated transcriptomic changes over time in adult oil palms at plantations over a two-year period with pronounced seasonal variation in precipitation. A significant transcriptional waterlogging response was observed in the oil palm stem core but not in leaf samples when gene expression was correlated with cumulative precipitation over two-day periods. Pathways and processes upregulated or enriched in the stem core response included hypoxia, ethylene signaling, and carbon metabolism. Post-waterlogging recovery in oil palms was found to be associated with responses to heat stress and carotenoid biosynthesis. Nineteen transcription factors (TFs) potentially involved in the waterlogging response of mature oil palms were also identified. These data provide new insights into the transcriptomic responses of planted oil palms to waterlogging and offer valuable guidance on the sensitivity of oil palm plantations to future climate changes.
