As the global population continues to increase, global food production needs to double by
2050 to meet the demand. Given the current status of the not expansion of cultivated land …

In plants, α-Lipoic acid (ALA) is considered a dithiol short-chain fatty acid with several strong
antioxidative properties. To date, no data are conclusive regarding its effects as an …

Drought stress is the major abiotic factor threatening maize (Zea mays L.) yield globally.
Therefore, revealing the molecular mechanisms fundamental to drought tolerance in maize …

Chlorophylls are vital for photosynthesis, allowing plants to absorb energy from light for
photosynthesis. More than one hundred species of chlorophyll have been identified. Among …
