On the world stage, the increase in temperatures due to global warming is already a reality
that has become one of the main challenges faced by the scientific community. Since …

Salt stress is a major environmental stress that affects plant growth and development. Plants
are sessile and thus have to develop suitable mechanisms to adapt to high-salt …

Soil salinization inhibits plant growth and seriously restricts food security and agricultural
development. Excessive salt can cause ionic stress, osmotic stress, and ultimately oxidative …

Photosynthesis is a high-rate redox metabolic process that is subjected to rapid changes in
input parameters, particularly light. Rapid transients of photon capture, electron fluxes, and …

Polyphenols are an important class of phytochemicals, and several lines of evidence have
demonstrated their beneficial effects in the context of a number of pathologies including …

Biotic factors affect plant immune responses and plant resistance to pathogen infections.
Despite the considerable progress made over the past two decades in manipulating genes …

Crop plants are vulnerable to various biotic and abiotic stresses, whereas plants tend to
retain their physiological mechanisms by evolving cellular regulation. To mitigate the …

Nanotechnology is an innovative method of elevating agricultural output without sacrificing
quality due to nanoparticles (NPs) unique characteristics and numerous potential uses. It is …

Background Drought is a serious causal factor of reduced crop yields than any other abiotic
stresses. As one of the most widely distributed crops, maize plants frequently suffer from …

Plants, being sessile in nature have developed refined mechanisms to rapidly sense
changing environment and protect themselves from environmental stresses. Mitogen …
