Drought stress, being the inevitable factor that exists in various environments without
recognizing borders and no clear warning thereby hampering plant biomass production …

Abiotic stresses, such as low or high temperature, deficient or excessive water, high salinity,
heavy metals, and ultraviolet radiation, are hostile to plant growth and development, leading …

The role of nitric oxide (NO) in salicylic acid (SA)-induced tolerance to arsenic (As) stress in
maize plants is not reported in the literature. Before starting As stress (AsS) treatments, SA …

Scientists studying the environment, physiology, and biology have been particularly
interested in nickel (Ni) because of its dual effects (essentiality and toxicity) on terrestrial …

Glutathione is an essential metabolite for plant life best known for its role in the control of
reactive oxygen species (ROS). Glutathione is also involved in the detoxification of …

Plant growth is affected by various abiotic stresses, including water, temperature, light, salt,
and heavy metals. Selenium (Se) is not an essential nutrient for plants but plays important …

Enhanced crop growth and yield are the recurring concerns in agricultural field, considering
the soaring world population and climate change. Abiotic stresses are one of the major …

Phytohormones play central roles in boosting plant tolerance to environmental stresses,
which negatively affect plant productivity and threaten future food security. Strigolactones …

The present study identified inverse relationships between nickel (Ni) levels and growth,
photosynthesis and physio-biochemical attributes, but increasing levels of Ni stress …

Extreme weather events can cause heat stress that decreases crop production. Recent
studies have demonstrated that protein degradation and rRNA homeostasis as well as …
