Plants living under natural conditions are exposed to many adverse factors that interfere with
the photosynthetic process, leading to declines in growth, development, and yield. The …

Plants as sessile organisms are continuously exposed to abiotic stress conditions that
impose numerous detrimental effects and cause tremendous loss of yield. Abiotic stresses …

Abstract Silicon nanoparticles (Si-NPs) have shown their potential for use in farming under
water-deficient conditions. Thus, the experiment was accomplished to explore the impacts of …

The aim of this educational review is to provide practical information on the hardware,
methodology, and the hands on application of chlorophyll (Chl) a fluorescence technology …

Global warming has led to increased temperature of the earth which is a major abiotic stress
posing a serious threat to the plants. Photosynthesis is amongst the plant cell functions that …

Chlorophyll (Chl) a fluorescence induction (transient), measured by exposing dark-adapted
samples to high light, shows a polyphasic rise, which has been the subject of extensive …

Background With limited agricultural land and increasing human population, it is essential to
enhance overall photosynthesis and thus productivity. Oxygenic photosynthesis begins with …

Phosphorus (P) is an essential macronutrient, and P deficiency limits plant productivity.
Recent work showed that P deficiency affects electron transport to photosystem I (PSI), but …

In our study, the effects of water stress on photosynthesis and photosynthetic electron
transport chain (PETC) were studied in several ways, including monitoring the change of …

The first synthetic review of the PAHs effects on microalgae in experimental studies and
aquatic ecosystems is provided. Phytoplankton and phytobenthos from marine and …
