Cistanthe collomantha, a medicinal herb widely used in traditional medicine, exhibits unique biochemical and morphological adaptations in response to prolonged water immersion on different rock substrates. This study investigates the dynamic interplay between rock-mediated water dynamics and plant physiological responses in submerged hydrothermal rock gardens. We employed stable isotope tracing and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy to elucidate the induction of bioactive triterpenoids and terpenoids via chemo-physical interactions with hydrothermally altered quartz.

* *Introduction**

Cistanthe collomantha, a member of the Portulacaceae family, is a medicinal herb widely used in traditional medicine for its anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antifungal properties. The plant's unique biochemical and morphological adaptations in response to environmental stimuli have made it an attractive subject for study in the fields of pharmacognosy and horticulture. In this study, we investigate the effect of prolonged water immersion on Cistanthe collomantha grown on different rock substrates in submerged hydrothermal rock gardens.

* *Key Findings**

Our results demonstrate that Cistanthe collomantha undergoes significant biochemical and morphological changes in response to prolonged water immersion, leading to the induction of novel bioactive compounds. Specifically, we observed:

* A significant increase in the production of triterpenoids and terpenoids in response to hydrothermal mineralization

* A shift in the metabolic pathway of Cistanthe collomantha, with a decrease in the production of starch and an increase in the production of fatty acids

* A change in the root system architecture of Cistanthe collomantha, with a decrease in the number of fine roots and an increase in the number of coarse roots

* A change in the rhizospheric interactions of Cistanthe collomantha, with an increase in the abundance of beneficial microorganisms and a decrease in the abundance of pathogenic microorganisms

* *Botanical Mechanisms**

frente The induction of bioactive triterpenoids and terpenoids in Cistanthe collomantha is thought to be mediated by the interaction between the plant's metabolic pathways and the hydrothermal mineralization process. Specifically, the increase in the production of triterpenoids and terpenoids is thought to be due to the activation of the mevalonate pathway, which is responsible for the biosynthesis of these compounds.

The shift in the metabolic pathway of Cistanthe collomantha is thought to be due to the change in the plant's energy status, with a decrease in the production of starch and an increase in the production of fatty acids. This change in energy status is thought to be due to the altered nutrient availability in the hydrothermal rock gardens.

The change in the root system architecture of Cistanthe collomantha is thought to be due to the altered soil water regime in the hydrothermal rock gardens. Specifically, the decrease in the number of fine roots and the increase in the number of coarse roots are thought to be due to the increased water availability in the soil.

The change in the rhizospheric interactions of Cistanthe collomantha is thought to be due to the altered microbial community in the hydrothermal rock gardens. Specifically, the increase in the abundance of beneficial microorganisms and the decrease in the abundance of pathogenic microorganisms are thought to be due to the altered nutrient availability and the changed soil water regime.
