Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are versatile compounds which can have toxic or signalling
effects in a wide range living organisms, including seeds. They have been reported to play a …

Seed germination is crucial for the life cycle of plants and maximum crop production. This
critical developmental step is regulated by diverse endogenous [hormones, reactive oxygen …

Abstract Peroxidases (EC 1.11. 1.7) are involved in a wide range of physiological processes,
hence their broad distribution across biological systems. These proteins can be classified as …

Peroxidases play prominent roles in antioxidant responses and stress tolerance in plants;
however, their functions in soybean tolerance to salt stress remain unclear. Here, we …

Climate change and increasing population pressure have put the agriculture sector in an
arduous situation. With increasing demand for agricultural production overuse of inputs have …

The aim of the present study is to evaluate the antioxidant capacity of garden cress seeds
during germination. The total phenolic and flavonoid contents increased several times …

The physiological promotion effect of nanobubble (NB) water on living organisms is still a
poorly understood phenomenon which was discovered 1 decade ago. Here, we analyzed …

Nanobubbles (NBs) stimulate seed germination; however, the mechanism of the promotion
effect of NBs remains unclear. The impact of NBs on seed water absorption was …

Drought is a major threat to maize growth and production. Understanding the molecular
regulation network of drought tolerance in maize is of great importance. In this study, two …

Seed germination is a critical stage and the first step in the plant's life cycle. H2O2 and Ca2+
act as important signal molecules in regulating plant growth and development and in …
