Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are known to have beneficial effects on host plants
growing on contaminated soils. The present study aimed at investigating the influence of two …

Delonix regia, an ornamental tree that can tolerate an elevated level of heavy metals, was
evaluated for phytoremediation potential in mine tailings with fly ash, compost, and …

Although nitrogen (N) influences plant response to cadmium (Cd) stress, little information
has been suggested on how N forms affect Cd distribution and tolerance in Populus clones …

Cadmium (Cd2+) pollution occurring in salt-affected soils has become an increasing
environmental concern in the world. Fast-growing poplars have been widely utilized for …

Arable soils irrigated with wastewater (SIWs) cause ecological and human health issues due
to the presence of heavy metals (HMs). Burning rice stubble (RS) poses severe …

Metal trace elements accumulate in soils mainly because of anthropic activities, leading
living organisms to develop strategies to handle metal toxicity. Plants often associate with …

Simple Summary Prosystemin is a 200 amino acid precursor that releases, upon wounding
and biotic attacks, an 18 amino acid peptide called Systemin. This peptide was traditionally …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi establish a mutualistic symbiosis with most land plants.
AM fungi regulate plant copper (Cu) acquisition both in Cu deficient and polluted soils. Here …

Plants do not exist as single entities but should rather be considered to form a complex
community with microbes and other organisms where plant tissues form diverse niches for …

Mycorrhizae are found on about 70–80% of the roots of all plant species; ectomycorrhizae
(ECM) are mostly found on woody plants and gymnosperms, whereas arbuscular …
