A hydroponic study was conducted to determine the effects of single and/or combined
application of different doses (0, 5 and 10 μM L− 1) of abscisic acid (ABA) and 6 …

Abstract Salicylic acid (SA), Epi-brassinolide (EBL) and calcium (Ca) play crucial roles in
plant development and mediate plant response to biotic and abiotic stress. This study was …

Experiments were conducted to determine how exogenous abscisic acid (ABA) mediates the
tolerance of plants to cadmium (Cd) exposure. Cd stress strongly reduced all the growth …

Nanoparticles (NPs) have recently emerged as potential agents for plants to ameliorate
abiotic stresses by acting as nano-fertilizers. In this regard, the influence of the zinc oxide …

Toxic impact of cadmium (Cd) on plants is well known which affects their productivity. To
mitigate toxic impact of metals such as Cd, exogenous application of phytohormones like …

Lead (Pb) toxicity has a great impact in terms of toxicity towards living organisms as it
severely affects crop growth, yield, and food security; thus, warranting appropriate measures …

Brassinosteroids and hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2) are extensively used to combat several
environmental factors, including heavy metal stress in plants, but their cumulative impact on …

Soil contamination with toxic heavy metals [such as lead (Pb)] is becoming a serious global
problem due to the rapid development of the social economy. However, accumulation of Pb …

In vitro experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of abscisic acid (ABA) and Cd
on antioxidative defense systems and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) oxidase during adventitious …

A study was performed to assess if nitrate reductase (NR) participated in brassinosteroid
(BR)-induced cadmium (Cd) stress tolerance primarily by accelerating the ascorbate …
