Deficits in the mineral Zn are responsible for a sizable proportion of the world's disease
burden and child mortality. With the increasing success rate of biofortification in major crops …

Globally, soil salinity is an abiotic stress that can threaten arable lands and crop production
and consequently can negatively affect food security. Therefore, the aim of this review was to …

The morphological plasticity of plant roots is a key factor in their ability to tolerate a wide
range of edaphic stresses. There are many unanswered questions relating to …

Salinity is one of the most devastating environmental factors limiting crop productivity
worldwide. Therefore, our study investigates the effect of seed priming with zinc oxide …

Salinity is one of the most critical problems for agricultural development and threatens future
