Drought and heat are major abiotic stresses that reduce crop productivity and weaken global
food security, especially given the current and growing impacts of climate change and …

This review deals with the adaptive mechanisms that plants can implement to cope with the
challenge of salt stress. Plants tolerant to NaCl implement a series of adaptations to …

Adverse environmental conditions due to climate change, combined with declining soil
fertility, threaten food security. Modern agriculture is facing a pressing situation where novel …

Silicon (Si) is the second most abundant element in soil, where its availability to plants can
exhilarate to 10% of total dry weight of the plant. Si accumulation/transport occurs in the …

Metabolites reflect the integration of gene expression, protein interaction and other different
regulatory processes and are therefore closer to the phenotype than mRNA transcripts or …

Despite a wealth of published research on salinity tolerance of plants, neither the metabolic
sites at which salt stress damages plants nor the adaptive mechanisms utilized by plants to …

In the present study, onion extract was used for green synthesis of iron oxide nanoparticles
(Fe-NPs). The X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and high-resolution …

Drought and high temperatures are two major abiotic stress factors that often occur
simultaneously in nature, affecting negatively crop performance and yield. Moreover, these …

Summary Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and nitric oxide (˙ NO) are key reactive species in
signal transduction pathways leading to activation of plant defense against biotic or abiotic …

Citrus, one of the most important fruit crops in the world, is sensitive to many environmental
stresses including salt stress. The negative effects of stresses often lead to poor tree growth …
