Biography

Maslennikova Dilara is engaged in the study of resistance management in wheat plants under various abiotic factors. She pays close attention to the use of environmentally friendly feedstocks to increase the sustainability of wheat yields. Phytohormones, salicylic acid, epibrassinolide, and the gaso transmitter nitric oxide are the major focus of her studies. In recent years, she has begun to study the mechanisms of resistance induced by bacteria of various origins, including endophytes and rhizobacteria. A special place in her research is given to studying components of the antioxidant system in plants, in particular, the ascorbate–glutathione complex. Thus, it was found that wheat plants differ in drought resistance: S Y (unsustainable) and E 70 (resistant) varieties differ in the content of these antioxidants, which are involved in different ways in the induction of resistance by the endophytic bacterium Bacillus subtilis (Maslennikova D., Lastochkina O., 2021). In addition, it was found that nitric oxide (200 μM SNP) has a protective effect on wheat plants under salinity conditions, and an important contribution to this resistance is made by the ability of nitric oxide to regulate the content of glutathione and the additional activity of the enzyme glutathione reductase (Maslennikova et al., 2022). Recently, she began to study the role of glutathione in the symbiotic relationship between plants and bacteria, combining multiple effects on plant physiology.
