Selenium as an exogenous supply factor enhancing the physio-metabolic behaviour of pepper (Capsicum annuum) under saline conditions The effect of foliar Se application on salt-stressed peppers was investigated. The two-year field experiment consisted of the T0: 3 g NaCl L−1, T1: 6 g NaCl L−1 and T2: 9 g NaCl L−1 saline treatments and two Se doses (Se-: 0 mg L−1 vs Se+:2 mg L−1), exogenously applied from leaf development until fruit maturation.

Figure 1. Target of rapamycin complex (TORC) activity is rapidly repressed by salt stress. A) Dose dependance of salt-mediated TOR repression. 35S:S6K1-HA seedlings were treated with different NaCl concentrations for 4 h. Band intensity in the immunoblots indicates the level of total protein (anti-HA in lower panel) or T449-phosphorylated form of S6K1 (anti-p-T449 in upper panel). B) Quantification of relative p-T449 intensity in A). The data represent the ratio of intensity of p-T449 over S6K1-HA, and the value for the sample “0 mM NaCl” was set as 1. C) Time course of salt-mediated TOR repression. 35S:S6K1-HA seedlings were treated with 200 mM NaCl for indicated times. D) Quantification of relative p-T449 intensity in C). The value at 0 min was set as 1. E) TORC activity was restored following salt recovery treatment. 35S:S6K1-HA seedlings were treated with 200 mM NaCl for 15 min, and then transferred to the recovery medium for indicated times. Rec, recovery. F) Quantification of relative p-T449 intensity in E). In B), D), and F), the data represent the ratio of intensity of p-T449 over S6K1-HA, data are means±SEM, n=3 (biologically independent experiments). Different letters in B) and D) represent significant difference between samples by one-way ANOVA (P<0.05, Supplementary Data Set 1). In F), *P<0.05 (one-way ANOVA, Supplementary Data Set 1)

Figure 6.The salt-tolerant phenotype shown in raptor1b mutant is abolished in the absence of SOS2/Calcineurin B-Like (CBL)-Interacting Protein Kinase 24 (CIPK24). A) Representative images of Col-0, cipk24, raptor1-2, and raptor1-2cipk24 mutant under normal or salt conditions in post-germination assays. Scale bar: 1 cm. B) Chlorophyll content per 4 seedlings measured at the end of the assay shown in A). Quantitative data are mean±SD of three biological repeats. Statistical analyses were performed by one-way ANOVA. (***P<0.001, ****P<0.0001, n.s., not significant). C) Working model for target of rapamycin complex (TORC), abscisic acid (ABA), and CBL–CIPK signaling pathways to orchestrate growth and salt stress response under changing salinity status. In response to salt stress, ABA pathway and CBL–CIPK pathway dominate, suppressing TORC by phosphorylating RAPTOR1B and slowing down the growth to facilitate stress adaptation. Upon the removal of salt stress, TORC rapidly activates to suppress the ABA- and CBL–CIPK-mediated salt stress response network and promotes plant growth.

Great work by Li et al. (2025) on identifying the regulatory loop between #PlantTOR complex (TORC) via its RAPTOR1B subunit (Ser897) and the CBL4/CBL10–CIPK24 module in #Arabidopsis, which regulates the balance between plant growth and #SaltStress response ⚖️.
