The generation of oxygen radicals and their derivatives, known as reactive oxygen
species,(ROS) is a part of the signaling process in higher plants at lower concentrations, but …

Salinity is an issue impairing crop production across the globe. Under salinity stress,
besides the osmotic stress and Na+ toxicity, ROS (reactive oxygen species) …

Background Salinity is one of the most challenging abiotic stresses restricting the growth of
plants. In vitro screening will increase the efficiency and speed of salinity tolerant genotypes …

Contamination by heavy metals including As, Cd, Co, Cu, Fe, Hg, Mn, Ni and Zn in
agricultural fields is a global safety issue. Indeed, excessive accumulations of metals have …

Microalgae biomasses are excellent sources of diverse bioactive compounds such as lipids,
polysaccharides, carotenoids, vitamins, phenolics and phycobiliproteins. Large-scale …

Drought and salinity are the major environmental abiotic stresses that negatively impact crop
development and yield. To improve yields under abiotic stress conditions, drought-and …

Heavy metals are the most persistent and complex pollutants in nature. They not only reduce
the quality of the atmosphere, water bodies and food crops, but also threaten the health and …

Plants often encounter light intensities exceeding the capacity of photosynthesis (excessive
light) mainly due to biotic and abiotic factors, which lower CO 2 fixation and reduce light …

Environmental stressors such as high temperature and intense light have been shown to
have negative effects on plant growth and productivity. To survive in such conditions, plants …

Cold tolerance is a complex trait that requires a critical perspective to understand its
underpinning mechanism. To unravel the molecular framework underlying maize (Zea mays …
