The generation of oxygen radicals and their derivatives, known as reactive oxygen
species,(ROS) is a part of the signaling process in higher plants at lower concentrations, but …

Salinized land is slowly spreading across the world. Reduced crop yields and quality due to
salt stress threaten the ability to feed a growing population. We discussed the mechanisms …

Salt stress negatively affects the growth, development, and yield of horticultural crops. Nitric
oxide (NO) is considered a signaling molecule that plays a key role in the plant defense …

Drought stress deleteriously affects growth, development and productivity in plants. So, we
examined the silicon effect (2 mmol) and proline (10 mmol) individually or the combination …

Key message Plant bioregulators play an important role in managing oxidative stress
tolerance in plants. Utilizing their ability in stress sensitive crops through genetic …

Salinity stress hinders the growth potential and productivity of crop plants by influencing
photosynthesis, disturbing the osmotic and ionic concentrations, producing excessive …

Silicon (Si) is the most abundant element on earth after oxygen and is very important for
plant growth under stress conditions. In the present study, we inspected the role of Si in the …

Plant growth and crop productivity under unfavorable environmental challenges require a
unique strategy to scavenge the severely negative impacts of these challenges such as soil …

Silicon (Si) is a metalloid which is gaining worldwide attention of plant scientists due to its
ameliorating impact on plants' growth and development. The beneficial response of Si is …

Silicon (Si), the second most predominant element in the earth crust consists of numerous
benefits to plant. Beneficial effect of Si has been apparently visible under both abiotic and …
