Poly (acrylic) acid coated Mn3O4 (PMO) has been reported to play a vital role in defending against a variety of abiotic stresses in plants. To date, the effects of PMOs on soybean have not been reported; this study explored the mechanism of PMO-enhanced soybean germination under salt stress. In this experiment, 100 mg\/L PMO was used as an immersion agent with a salt treatment of 150 mM NaCl. The results showed that when compared with the PMO treatment, salt stress significantly decreased the germination rate, fresh weight, carbohydrate content, and antioxidant enzyme activity of soybean and significantly increased the contents of reactive oxygen species, malondialdehyde, and osmoregulatory substances. However, PMO treatment enhanced the antioxidant defense system and significantly reduced the malondialdehyde content of soybean. Moreover, the activities of H+-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPase were significantly higher in treated soybean than in the control, and the content of ATP was also higher in treated soybean than in the control. Generally, PMO regulates the homeostasis of reactive oxygen species and reduces ATP consumption, thereby improving the ability of soybeans to germinate under salt stress. This study provides new insights into how nanomaterials improve plant salt tolerance.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/plants13213011","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,28]],"date-time":"2024-10-28T07:04:04Z","timestamp":1730099044000},"page":"3011","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Mn3O4 Nanoenzyme Seed Soaking Enhanced Salt Tolerance in Soybean Through Modulating Homeostasis of Reactive Oxygen Species and ATPase Activities"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Tingyong","family":"Mao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Agriculture, Tarim University, Alar 843300, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Tarim Oasis Agriculture, Ministry of Education, Tarim University, Alar 843300, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Linfeng","family":"Bao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Agriculture, Tarim University, Alar 843300, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hengbin","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Crops Research Institute, Xinjiang Academy of Agricultural and Reclamation Sciences, Shihezi 832000, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zhilin","family":"Shi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Agriculture, Tarim University, Alar 843300, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jiahao","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Agriculture, Tarim University, Alar 843300, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Tarim Oasis Agriculture, Ministry of Education, Tarim University, Alar 843300, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Desheng","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Agriculture, Tarim University, Alar 843300, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Tarim Oasis Agriculture, Ministry of Education, Tarim University, Alar 843300, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chan","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Agriculture, Tarim University, Alar 843300, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Tarim Oasis Agriculture, Ministry of Education, Tarim University, Alar 843300, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yong","family":"Zhan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Crops Research Institute, Xinjiang Academy of Agricultural and Reclamation Sciences, Shihezi 832000, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5822-5921","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yunlong","family":"Zhai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Agriculture, Tarim University, Alar 843300, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Tarim Oasis Agriculture, Ministry of Education, Tarim University, Alar 843300, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"(2024, May 06).
