Rapid industrialization, modern agricultural practices and other anthropogenic activities add
a significant quantity of toxic heavy metals into the environment, which induces severe toxic …

In recent decades, environmental pollution with chromium (Cr) has gained significant
attention. Although chromium (Cr) can exist in a variety of different oxidation states and is a …

The aim of the study was to determine tolerance of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria
(PGPR) in different concentrations of Cu, Cr, Co, Cd, Ni, Mn, and Pb and to evaluate the …

Chromium (Cr) stress is one of the most adverse environmental factors that affect plant
growth and food chain contamination. Fulvic acid (FA) is known to enhance the growth and …

Water deficit has devastating impacts on legume production, particularly with the current
abrupt climate changes in arid environments. The application of plant growth-promoting …

Soil contamination with chromium (Cr) is a serious and burgeoning environmental problem.
The infiltration of excess Cr into the food chain causes a number of human health issues …

Heavy metals contamination in agricultural soil is a major issue having drastic effects on
plants and human health. To solve this issue, we have formulated and tested a new …

Owing to inconsistent results of a single bacterial strain, co-inoculation of more than one
strain under salinity stress could be a more effective strategy to induce salt tolerance. Co …

Chromium (Cr) is a toxic heavy metal and severely reduces plant growth. It commonly exists
in two forms, ie, Cr+ 3 and Cr+ 6. Due to the high solubility and oxidizing potential, Cr+ 6 is …

Chromium is a toxic heavy metal. Plants, animals and human metabolic processes are
disturbed due to higher levels of chromium. PGPR are involved in seed germination, growth …
