Since the last decades, nanotechnology has gained the attention of researchers in the field
of plant sciences. The characteristics of nanoparticles are reliant on their shape and size …

Soybean (Glycine max) is a crop of global significance and has low reliance on N fertilizers
due to its biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) capacity, which harvests ambient N2 as a critical …

Nickel (Ni) is an essential micronutrient for plant growth and development; however, at high
levels, it is strongly phytotoxic. Chitosan is a natural biopolymer which is obtained from the …

Soil contamination with nickel (Ni) is a persistent threat to crop production worldwide. The
present study examined the putative roles of jasmonic acid (JA) in improving Ni tolerance in …

Innovative technology to increase efficient nitrogen (N) use while avoiding environmental
damages is needed because of the increasing food demand of the rapidly growing global …

Nickel (Ni) toxicity has been reported to decrease productivity in soybean (Glycine max L.).
However, soybean responses to Ni toxicity are not well understood. The aim of the present …

Due to industrialization and expansion of nanotechnology, ecosystem contamination by
nanoparticles is likely. Overall, nanoparticles accumulate in environmental matrices and …

The nanoencapsulation of nitric oxide (NO) donors is an attractive technique to protect these
molecules from rapid degradation, expanding, and enabling their use in agriculture. Here …

Studies on the role of nickel (Ni) in photosynthetic and antioxidant metabolism, as well as in
flavonoid synthesis and biological fixation nitrogen in cowpea crop are scarce. The aim of …

Excess nickel (Ni) concentration in the growing medium severely hampers the plant growth
by disturbing oxidative metabolism and nutrient status. The present study was carried out to …
