Plants face an array of environmental stresses, including both abiotic and biotic stresses. These stresses significantly impact plant lifespan and reduce agricultural crop productivity. Abiotic stresses, such as ultraviolet (UV) radiation, high and low temperatures, salinity, drought, floods, heavy metal toxicity, etc., contribute to widespread crop losses globally. On the other hand, biotic stresses, such as those caused by insects, fungi, and weeds, further exacerbate these challenges. These stressors can hinder plant systems at various levels, including molecular, cellular, and development processes. To overcome these challenges, multi-omics computational approaches offer a significant tool for characterizing the plant’s biomolecular pool, which is crucial for maintaining homeostasis and signaling response to environmental changes. Integrating multiple layers of omics data, such as proteomics, metabolomics, ionomics, interactomics, and phenomics, simplifies the study of plant resistance mechanisms. This comprehensive approach enables the development of regulatory networks and pathway maps, identifying potential targets for improving resistance through genetic engineering or breeding strategies. This review highlights the valuable insights from integrating multi-omics approaches to unravel plant stress responses to both biotic and abiotic factors. By decoding gene regulation and transcriptional networks, these techniques reveal critical mechanisms underlying stress tolerance. Furthermore, the role of secondary metabolites in bio-based products in enhancing plant stress mitigation is discussed. Genome editing tools offer promising strategies for improving plant resilience, as evidenced by successful case studies combating various stressors. On the whole, this review extensively discusses an advanced multi-omics approach that aids in understanding the molecular basis of resistance and developing novel strategies to improve crops’ or organisms’ resilience to abiotic and biotic stresses.

Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is one of the most economically important fruit crops across the world, mainly in the tropics and subtropics of Asia, Africa, and Central and South America. Abiotic stresses are the prominent hindrance that can adversely affect the growth, development, and significant yield loss of mango trees. Understanding the molecular physiological mechanisms underlying abiotic stress responses in mango is highly intricate. Therefore, to gain insights into the molecular basis and to alleviate the abiotic stress responses to enhance the yield in the mere future, the use of high-throughput frontier approaches should be tied along with the baseline investigations. Taking these gaps into account, this comprehensive review mainly speculates to provide detailed mechanisms and impacts on physiological and biochemical alterations in mango under abiotic stress responses. In addition, the review emphasizes the promising omics approaches in unraveling the candidate genes and transcription factors (TFs) responsible for abiotic stresses. Furthermore, this review also summarizes the role of different types of biostimulants in improving the abiotic stress responses in mango. These studies can be undertaken to recognize the roadblocks and avenues for enhancing abiotic stress tolerance in mango cultivars. Potential investigations pointed out the implementation of powerful and essential tools to uncover novel insights and approaches to integrate the existing literature and advancements to decipher the abiotic stress mechanisms in mango. Furthermore, this review serves as a notable pioneer for researchers working on mango stress physiology using integrative approaches.

A series of new pyrazolopyranopyrimidine derivatives (3-9) were synthesized from 5-amino-2,4-dihydro-3-methyl-4-phenylpyrano-[2,3-c]pyrazole-5-carbonitrile (2) by multicomponent reactions (MCR) involving malononitrile, benzaldehyde, and pyrazolone under refluxing ethanol in the presence of piperidine. Compound (2) was then converted to 2-acetylpyrazolopyranopyrimidine (3) through a reaction with acetic anhydride. The deprotection of 3 using ammonium hydroxide in ethanol, leads to 4. Subsequent chlorination of 4 by phosphorus oxychloride affords 5 which was alkylated using methyl iodide and ethyl bromoacetate in DMF, leading to regioisomers 6-9. The products were characterized by spectroscopic techniques (¹H and ¹³C NMR) and confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies for 2, 5, 6, and 9. Moreover, the geometrical parameters, molecular orbital calculations, and spectral data of 2, 5, 6, and 9 were compared by DFT at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level of theory. There is good agreement between the calculated results and the experimental data. The intermolecular contacts for 2, 5, 6, and 9 were studied by Hirshfeld surface analysis. In addition, the molecular docky study was conducted to investigate the binding patterns of 2, 5, 6, and 9 within the binding site of cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2) and penicillin-binding protein 1 A. After the docking process, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations for 100 ns were performed on CDK2 and PBP 1 A proteins in the complex with 5.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.
