	Soil salinity is a major environmental constraint causing huge losses in crop production. Pandanus odorifer (Forssk.) Kuntze is an aromatic monocot plant species belonging to the family Pandanaceae, which grows naturally on the saline soils along the coasts of Asia, Southeast Asia, and Polynesia. The plants are dioecious and highly fertile, and the consistent saline sprays, strong winds, and severe soil salinity hardly affect their growth and fertility. Hence, understanding the mechanism of high salinity tolerance in P. odorifer could provide major advances in overcoming salinity stress in crop plants. In the present study, we analyzed control (0 M NaCl) and treated (1 M NaCl treatment for 3 weeks) plants of P. odorifer to understand the role of ion distribution, ion transport, and related mechanisms under salt stress. Using a combination of ionomics and transcriptomics approaches, we identified the molecular mechanisms contributing to the high salinity stress in P. odorifer. Under NaCl stress, there was a significant increase in Na, Cl, and other ions in leaves, while the concentrations of Si, Fe, Ni, and Ti decreased. Similarly, in roots, the levels of Na, Mg, Cd, and Cr were significantly high, while the levels of other ions decreased. Most of the genes related to ion transport and homeostasis, such as NHX1, CLC-C, SOS1, HAK, and ABC transporters, were upregulated in 1 M NaCl stress conditions. This study revealed that vacuolar sequestration of Na+ and the distribution of ions in the roots and shoots play significant roles in the salt-stress tolerance mechanism of P. odorifer.&lt;/p&gt;

	Main conclusionIntegrating multi-omics and computer-aided drug discovery approaches can overcome the limitations of traditional methods and help develop highly effective, specific, and environmentally safe biofungicides to control crop diseases.AbstractChickpea is a valuable legume crop in terms of nutrition, food security, economic sustainability, and environmental benefits. Fusarium wilt caused by the soil-borne fungus Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. ciceri is one of the most important diseases affecting chickpea. Several disease management methods, including crop rotation, soil fumigation with chemical fungicides, soil solarization, etc., are practiced to manage the disease. However, these methods have various limitations and cannot completely control the disease. Moreover, chemical fungicides indiscriminately kill even the beneficial soil microbes, pollute groundwater, and enter the food chain. Hence, modern approaches emphasizing innovative strategies and technologies need to be explored to manage the disease effectively. In this review, we propose integrating multi-omics (genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, etc.) and computer-aided drug discovery (CADD) approaches to develop biofungicides targeting vital pathogen proteins. Multi-omics approaches can delve deeper into the plant-pathogen interaction and reveal essential pathogen genes or proteins. These proteins could be targeted using CADD to identify phytochemical-based potential biofungicides, either using structure- or ligand-based drug design approaches. The potential biofungicides can be subjected to the prediction of carcinogenicity, hepatotoxicity, mutagenicity, etc., to identify biofungicides that are safe to use and are highly specific to the target pathogen. In vivo and in vitro validation studies can be followed to establish the efficacy and safety of the identified biofungicides for their practical application. This integrated approach can reduce the time and cost compared to the traditional methods and accelerate the discovery of highly effective biofungicides to protect crops from various diseases.&lt;/p&gt;

	Spot blotch disease caused by Bipolaris sorokiniana poses a significant threat to wheat production. Cultivation of disease-resistant wheat genotypes appears to be the most practical approach to mitigate the impact of this devastating disease. However, the molecular responses of wheat plants during spot blotch disease progression remain poorly understood. This study employed RNA-sequencing to unravel the spatiotemporal molecular events underlying the resistance mechanism in the spot blotch susceptible and resistant wheat genotypes. This study further provides a comprehensive overview of differentially expressed transcripts through functional analysis and transcription factor identification, elucidating the biological mechanisms governing wheat-B. sorokiniana interaction. In the resistant genotype, the expression of one of the key transcription factors, TaWRKY41, was significantly induced upon pathogen inoculation. Computational studies, electrophoretic-mobility shift assay, and yeast one-hybrid assay confirmed the interaction of the recombinant TaWRKY41 protein with W-box elements present in the promoters of plant defense-related genes. Furthermore, co-expression network analyses identified downstream genes positively correlated with TaWRKY41, providing insights into their probable involvement in the defense response. Overall, our investigation suggests that TaWRKY41 contributes to spot blotch resistance in wheat. This knowledge can help develop new disease-resistant wheat varieties.&lt;/p&gt;
