Despite a range of initiatives to reduce global carbon emission, the mean global
temperature is increasing due to climate change. Since rising temperatures pose a serious …

Plant growth regulators melatonin (MT) and salicylic acid (SA) have potent roles in plant salt
tolerance. However, only a few reports have studied the influence of their combined …

Plant hormone candidate melatonin has been widely studied in plants under various stress
conditions, such as heat, cold, salt, drought, heavy metal, and pathogen attack. Under stress …

Cold stress is one of the most limiting factors for plant growth and development. Cold stress
adversely affects plant physiology, molecular and biochemical processes by determining …

With increasing plastic production and consumption, large amounts of polystyrene
nanoplastics are accumulated in soil due to improper disposal causing pollution and …

Background The ubiquitous signaling molecule melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine)(
MT) plays vital roles in plant development and stress tolerance. Selenium (Se) may be …

Phytohormones play vital roles in the growth and development of plants as well as in
interactions of plants with microbes such as endophytic fungi. The endophytic root …

Cold is a major stressor, which limits plant growth and development in many parts of the
world, especially in the temperate climate zones. A large number of experimental studies …

The important role of melatonin in plant growth and metabolism together with recent
advances in the potential use of nanomaterials have opened up interesting applications in …

Key message Melatonin is an early player in chromium stress response in canola plants; it
promotes ROS scavenging and chlorophyll stability, modulates PSII stability and regulates …
