    Abstract: Dodder (Cuscuta campestris Yunck.) is one of the most devastating parasitic plants, which reduces quantity and quality of crops. The inhibitory effect of catnip (Nepeta meyeri Benth.) extracts on germination and some seedling characteristics of the C. campestris were investigated in three phases in a laboratory and greenhouse. Aqueous extracts from different organs of N. meyeri were used in bioassays. The N. meyeri extracts reduced germination percent, root and shoot growth, and dry weight of C. campestris seedlings. Moreover, results showed an inhibitory effect of the N. meyeri extracts on the activity of alpha-amylase, protease, and beta-1,3-glucanase enzymes in C. campestris germinating seeds. Under greenhouse conditions, C. campestris seeds were planted with 30-day-old alfalfa plants and irrigated with N. meyeri extracts. The application of extracts from different organs of N. meyeri reduced emergence percent and length of stem and hampered C. campestris attachment to alfalfa. N. meyeri extracts also inhibited the activity of antioxidant enzymes and increased the accumulation of hydrogen peroxide and the malondialdehyde in C. campestris seedlings. The strongest inhibitory effects were observed from flower, leaf, and stem extracts of N. meyeri, respectively. However, after C. campestris attachment to alfalfa plants, treatment by N. meyeri extracts did not exhibit any effect on infestation efficiency and C. campestris growth traits. According to these findings, N. meyeri extract, especially from flower and leaf, may be recommended as a potent bio-control agent to control germination and early stage development of C. campestris.

    Abstract: Nitric oxide (NO) is recognized as an endogenous signaling molecule that plays an important role in the defence responses of medicinal plants to NaCl stress. In this study, we investigated the effects of sodium nitroprusside (SNP) as an NO donor at three concentrations (0, 100, and 200 µmol l −1 ) to alleviate the deleterious effects of salt stress (100 mM NaCl) on leaf gas exchange and biochemical characteristics of Silybum marianum L. seedlings. This study showed that salt stress significantly decreased relative water content (RWC), chlorophyll b content, endogenous NO concentration, maximum quantum yield (Fv/Fm), leaf gas exchange, stomatal size, K + /Na + ratio, and plant dry weight, and increased malondialdehyde (MDA) content, hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) content, proline content, stomatal density, and enzyme activities. SNP treatment increased Fv/Fm, photosynthetic pigments, K + /Na + ratio, and dry weights of the shoots and roots of NaCl-exposed plants. The exogenous application of NO increased the proline content under salinity stress more than under stress conditions without SNP application, so that the proline content increased from 32 to 47 µmol g −1 . Application of 100 µM SNP also increased endogenous NO concentration (up to 43%) and consequently protected plants against salt stress-induced damage by improving enzyme activity and reducing the H 2 O 2 generation rate (up to 14%) and MDA content (up to 50%) compared to plants treated with NaCl alone. Foliar application of NO to salt-stressed plants increased root and shoot respiration rates from 20 and 12%, respectively, under salinity stress to 57% under the application of SNP and stress conditions, and decreased stomatal conductance by up to 70%, resulting in improved RWC. Increased internal NO generation in plants induced by 100 µM SNP application has the potential to mitigate salinity injury in Silybum marianum L. plants.

    Abstract: Plants respond to various stresses at the same time. Recent studies show that interactions of various phytohormones can play important roles in response to stresses. Objective: Although many studies have been done about the effects of the individual hormones, little information exists about the crosstalk among the hormone signalling pathways in plants. Methods: In this work, the weighted gene co-expression network analysis method was used to define modules containing genes with highly correlated expression patterns in response to abscisic acid, jasmonic acid, and salicylic acid in Arabidopsis. Results: Results indicate that plant hormones cause major changes the expression profile and control diverse cell functions, including response to environmental stresses and external factors, cell cycle, and antioxidant activity. In addition, AtbHLH15 and HY5 transcription factors can participate in phytochrome pathways in response to the phytohormones. It is probable that some Type III WRKY transcription factors control the response to bacterium separately from the other stresses. The E2Fa/DPa transcription factor also regulates the cell cycle. Conclusion: In general, many processes and pathways in plants may be regulated using a combination of abscisic acid, jasmonic acid, and salicylic acid.

    Abstract: Althought safflower is a tolerant crop against many environmental stresses, but its yield and performance reduce under stress. The aim of this experiment was to investigate the effect of silicon (Si) application on the possibility of increasing salinity resistance and related mechanisms in safflower. A greenhouse experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of Si spraying (0, 1.5 and 2.5 mM) on safflower plants grown under salt stress condition (non-saline and 10 dS m −1 ). Salinity reduced seedling emergence percent and rate, growth parameters and disrupted ion uptake but increased emergence time and specifc leaf weight. Spraying of Si increased plant height, fresh and dry weight, leaf area, relative water content (RWC), potassium, calcium and silicon content, while sodium absorption was decreased. As a result, the K + /Na + and Ca 2+ /Na + ratios were increased. Elevated ion contents and ratios indicate an enhanced selectivity of ion uptake following silicon application and may increase ion discrimination against Na + . Treatment with 2.5 mM Si showed the most positive effect on the measured growth traits. Decrement in leaf area ratio under salinity indicates a more severe effect of salinity on leaf area compared to biomass production. On the other hand, silicon reduced the specific leaf weight under stress and non-stress conditions, which revalues the positive effects of silicon on leaf area expansion. Improvement of RWC may a reason for the icrease in leaf area and biomass production. Data shows that spraying with Si especialy with 2.5 mM can reduce salinity stress damage to safflower and increase biomass production.

    Abstract: Information on the impact of climate change on the growth of weed species and their sensitivity to herbicides could help to establish an efficient weed management strategy. Due to the excessive use of acetolactate synthase (ALS)-inhibitor herbicides, resistance to those herbicides is increasing globally. It is, thus, crucial to find out whether the efficacy of these herbicides will change in the future due to the increase in temperatures and carbon dioxide concentration. Therefore, this work aimed to evaluate the impact of temperature and carbon dioxide (CO2) changes on the growth of Amaranthus retroflexus, Bromus tectorum, Chenopodium album, and Echinochloa crus-galli, including the assessment of sulfosulfuron 75% + metsulfuron methyl 5% efficacy in these weeds. A factorial experiment was performed in a completely randomized design with a factorial arrangement (2 × 2 × 6), including two CO2 concentrations (400 and 700 ppm), two temperature regimes (30/20 °C and 34/24 °C day/night), and six herbicide rates (0, 25, 37.5, 50, 62.5, and 75 g ha−1). As a result, it was seen that temperature and CO2 concentration changes influenced the morphological variables of the weeds. The temperature regime affected the herbicide’s effectiveness on B. tectorum and E. crus-galli. The herbicide’s efficacy on weed species was affected by the interaction of herbicide rates and the temperature regime, except for on E. crus-galli; the highest efficacy was observed at 30/20 °C and at a rate 50% higher (75 g ha−1) than the recommended one (50 g ha−1). Except for E. crus-galli, increasing CO2 concentrations enhanced the herbicide efficacy and ALS enzyme activity inhibition in all the weed species, but had the greatest effect on C3 weeds. We found that temperature and CO2 levels can alter the efficacy of weed control with herbicides, with clear differences between C3 and C4 plants. As a result, increased temperature and CO2 concentration will possibly allow better control of weed species such as B. tectorum, C. album and A. retroflexus at lower doses of the ALS herbicide under investigation.

    Abstract: Limited water stress is one of the most important environmental stresses that affect the growth, quantity and quality of agronomic crops. This study was undertaken to investigate the effect of foliar applied salicylic acid (SA) on physiological responses, antioxidant enzymes and qualitative traits of Cucurbita pepo L. Plants exposed to water-stressed conditions in two years of field studies. Irrigation regimes at three soil matric potential levels (−0.3, −1.2 and −1.8 MPa) and SA at four levels (0.0, 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 mg/L) were considered as main plot and sub-plots, respectively. The soil matric potential values (MPa) was measured just before irrigation. Results showed that under water stressed conditions alone, the amounts of malondialdehyde (MDA), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and ion leakage were higher compared with control treatment. However, spraying of SA under both water stress and non-stress conditions reduced the values of the above parameters. Water stress increased CAT, APX and GR enzymes activity. However foliar application of SA led to the decrease of CAT, APX and GR under all soil matric potential levels. The amount of carbohydrates and fatty acids increased with the intensity of water stress and SA modulated this response. By increasing SA concentration both in optimum and stress conditions, saturated fatty acids content decreased. According to our data, the SA application is an effective approach to improve pumpkin growth under water stress conditions.
