Purpose This research studies the alleviation potential of N- or/and P- deprived Coccomyxa chodatii SAG 216–2 extracts as biostimulants on mercury stress (10 and 30 mg L−1) of wheat seedlings. Materials The study includes the interactive effect of mercury and biostimulants on growth, reactive nitrogen and oxygen species, membrane stability, and antioxidant activity in wheat seedlings. Results The imposed toxic effects of Hg-stress on the studied parameters were to a great extent less noticeable under different algal extracts, and the magnitude of augmentation was P-deprived extract > P-&N-deprived extract > N-deprived extract > Normal algal extract. Higher Hg-tolerance modulated by algal extracts, especially P-deprived extract, was associated with high antioxidant capacity and ferric reducing power. These activities could instigate the antioxidant system (enzymatic and non-enzymatic) under Hg-stress. Furthermore, the algal extracts broadly alleviated wheat chelating mechanism deterioration by Hg-stress via enhancing phytochelatins, reduced glutathione, and metallothioneins. Thus, the applied algal extracts retarded Hg accumulation in wheat tissues exposed to Hg stress. In addition, the nitrosative stress induced by Hg-stress in terms of high nitric oxide content was minimized by various algal extracts. All these regulations by algal extracts are reflected in high membrane stability as denoted by the reduction of lipid peroxidation, lipoxygenase, and methylglyoxal as a sign of reducing oxidative damage and reactive oxygen species (ROS). Conclusion Thus, we recommended using the macronutrient-deprived algal extracts of Coccomyxa chodatii SAG 216–2 as potential biostimulants of wheat growth under Hg-stress and may be under other stresses.

“…Some biologically derived compounds found in plants, such as phytohormones and signal molecules, could be considered a significant tool climate (Abd El-Rahman and El-Sheshtawy et al 2022). The use of hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) donor NaHS indicated that H 2 S plays a role in plant adaptation responses to a variety of abiotic stressors (Da-Silva et al 2018).…”

The purpose of the present study is to investigate the role of hydrogen sulfide (H2S), in improving resistance to common bean salt stress. Method shows that common bean seeds were soaked in water and in two concentrations of sodium hydrosulfide (50 and 100 µM) for 8 h. After 25 days from sowing, the pots were irrigated with water and with two concentrations of NaCl (75 and 150 mM) until the end of the experiment. Results revealed that H2S relieved salt stress by decreasing growth inhibition and photosynthetic characteristics, and increasing osmolyte contents (proline and glycine betaine). Furthermore, H2S reduced oxidative damage by lowering lipid peroxidation, electrolyte leakage, and reactive oxygen species production such as hydrogen peroxide, hydroxyl radicals, and superoxide anion by increasing non-enzymatic antioxidants such as ascorbic acid and glutathione, as well as enzymatic antioxidants such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POX), ascorbate peroxidase (APX), glutathione reductase (GR), and nitrate reductase (NR). Meanwhile, salt stress and H2S application increased the endogenous level of H2S, which was accompanied by an increase in nitric oxide concentration. H2S, in particular, maintained sodium (Na+) and potassium (K+) homeostasis in the presence of excess NaCl. In general, H2S effectively reduced oxidative stress in common bean plants by increasing relative expression levels of copper-zinc superoxide dismutase (Cu-ZnSOD), CAT, and glutathione S-transferase (GST). Applying H2S to common bean plants could protect them from salinity stress by maintaining the Na+/K+ balance, boosting endogenous H2S and nitric oxide levels, and preventing oxidative damage by increasing antioxidant activity.

“…On the other hand, the higher concentration of heavy metals, the greater the phytotoxicity, which inhibits nutrient absorption, disrupts the photosystem, compromises membrane integrity, alters nitrogen metabolism, and accelerates necrosis and chlorosis, and senescence [ 7 ]. Additionally, Cd and Ni stress deform the chloroplast structures [ 8 ], resulting in decreased chlorophyll biosynthesis [ 9 ]. Cd and Ni toxicity significantly hinders the absorption, uptake, and translocation of Cu, Zn Fe, and Mn in different plant species, resulting in plant nutrient shortage [ 10 ].…”

“…There is a large diversity of microbes in the rhizosphere. Even so, some plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPBs) encourage plant growth and improve their tolerance to heavy metals [ 9 ]. Typically, these relationships are symbiotic, which means bacteria live inside plants without damaging them [ 15 ].…”

Cadmium (Cd) and nickel (Ni) are two of the most toxic metals, wreaking havoc on human health and agricultural output. Furthermore, high levels of Cd and Ni in the soil environment, particularly in the root zone, may slow plant development, resulting in lower plant biomass. On the other hand, endophytic bacteria offer great promise for reducing Cd and Ni. Moreover, they boost plants’ resistance to heavy metal stress. Different bacterium strains were isolated from tomato roots. These isolates were identified as Micrococcus luteus and Enterobacter cloacae using 16SrDNA and were utilized to investigate their involvement in mitigating the detrimental effects of heavy metal stress. The two bacterial strains can solubilize phosphorus and create phytohormones as well as siderophores. Therefore, the objective of this study was to see how endophytic bacteria (Micrococcus luteus and Enterobactercloacae) affected the mitigation of stress from Cd and Ni in tomato plants grown in 50 μM Cd or Ni-contaminated soil. According to the findings, Cd and Ni considerably lowered growth, biomass, chlorophyll (Chl) content, and photosynthetic properties. Furthermore, the content of proline, phenol, malondialdehyde (MDA), H2O2, OH, O2, the antioxidant defense system, and heavy metal (HM) contents were significantly raised under HM-stress conditions. However, endophytic bacteria greatly improved the resistance of tomato plants to HM stress by boosting enzymatic antioxidant defenses (i.e., catalase, peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, glutathione reductase, ascorbate peroxidase, lipoxygenase activity, and nitrate reductase), antioxidant, non-enzymatic defenses, and osmolyte substances such as proline, mineral content, and specific regulatory defense genes. Moreover, the plants treated had a higher value for bioconcentration factor (BCF) and translocation factor (TF) due to more extensive loss of Cd and Ni content from the soil. To summarize, the promotion of endophytic bacterium-induced HM resistance in tomato plants is essentially dependent on the influence of endophytic bacteria on antioxidant capacity and osmoregulation.
