Check out our🆕 #OpenAccess review on how #melatonin seed #priming strengthens plant #resilience against #abiotic stresses. We discuss emerging #molecular insights and future #breeding strategies toward designing next-generation, stress-smart #crops 🪴🌾🧬 🖇️ onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Melatonin seed priming (MSP) is rapidly emerging as a green and climate-smart strategy for enhancing plant stress tolerance. MSP triggers defensive molecular, biochemical, and physiological reprogramming during germination, thereby improving plant performance under subsequent stress conditions. This review synthesizes recent mechanistic insights into how MSP confers stress tolerance across diverse species by modulating redox signaling, hormonal homeostasis, and stress-related gene networks. We elucidate the synergistic potential of MSP when combined with nanoformulations, other priming agents, or beneficial microbes. We also discuss its crosstalk with key signaling pathways to better understand the tolerance mechanisms. Furthermore, we propose a forward-looking strategy that integrates omics, genome editing, speed breeding, and molecular phenotyping methods to improve MSP applications for the development of stress-smart crops.
