Background Drought is one of the major factors limiting global maize production. Exposure
to long-term drought conditions inhibits growth and leads to yield losses. Although several …

In the present study, iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe 3 O 2-NPs) synthesized from ginger
(Zingiber officinale) and cumin seeds (Cuminum Cyminum L.) extracts were investigated to …

Selenium (Se) is essential to humans and animals due to its antioxidant properties. Although
it is not considered an essential nutrient for higher plants. Many studies show that Se in low …

Abstract Nano-titanium dioxide (nTiO 2) has been reported to improve tolerance of plants
against different environmental stresses by modulating various physiological and …

Numerous studies have demonstrated the potential of sugar beet to lose the final sugar yield
under water limiting regime. Ample evidences have revealed the important role of mineral …

Various abiotic stresses lead to the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in plants
which are highly reactive and toxic in plant cell. The ROS comprises both free radical …

Salicylic acid (SA) has been regarded as the important phytohormone in improving abiotic
stress tolerance. However, the physiological mechanisms on drought stress tolerance …
