Salicylic acid (SA) is a well-known signalling molecule playing a role in local and systemic
acquired resistance against pathogens as well as in acclimation to certain abiotic stressors …

Salicylic acid (SA), a key signaling molecule in higher plants, has been found to play a role
in the response to a diverse range of phytopathogens and is essential for the establishment …

Heavy metal toxicity is one of the major abiotic stresses caused by physiological and
biochemical changes. Plants have evolved various phytochemical defense mechanisms to …

In plants, the reactive oxygen species (ROS) formed during normal conditions are essential
in regulating several processes, like stomatal physiology, pathogen immunity and …

Methyl jasmonate (MJ) is an important plant growth regulator, involved in plant defense
against abiotic stresses, however, its possible function in response to metal stress is poorly …

Recently, the application of salicylic acid (SA) for improving a plant's resistance to abiotic
stresses has increased. A large part of the irrigated land (2.1% out of 19.5%) is severely …

The ameliorative effect of salicylic acid (SA: 0.5 mM) on sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.)
under Cu stress (5 mg l− 1) was studied. Excess Cu reduced the fresh and dry weights of …

The present study was carried out to examine the effects of salicylic acid (SA) on growth,
activities of antioxidant enzymes and some physio-biochemical attributes in mustard …

There is increasing evidence showing that low molecular weight organic acids (LMWOA) are
involved in heavy metal resistance mechanisms in plants. The aim of this study was to …

We have studied the influence of pretreatment of wheat seedlings (Triticum aestivum L.) with
50 μM salicylic acid (SA) on plant resistance to subsequent action of 1 mM cadmium acetate …
