In nature, land plants as sessile organisms are faced with multiple nutrient stresses that
often occur simultaneously in soil. Nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), sulfur (S), zinc (Zn), and …

Drought is a major environmental threat that affects plant growth and productivity. Strategies
to mitigate the detrimental impacts of drought stress on plants are under scrutiny …

Salt stress affects large cultivated areas worldwide, thus causing remarkable reductions in
plant growth and yield. To reduce the negative effects of salt stress on plant growth and …

Abstract Silicon (Si) and Zinc (Zn) have been frequently used to alleviate cadmium (Cd)
toxicity, which are feasible strategies for crop safety production. However, the mechanisms …

Horticultural crop quality is an important aspect of agricultural production because it directly
influences customer preference, market value, and overall sustainability. Micronutrients are …

The purpose of this review is to critically evaluate the effects of different stress factors on
higher plants, with particular attention given to the typical and unique dose-dependent …

Macro-or micro-nutrients are essential for crop yield and nutritional quality. In this work,
selenium engineering nanomaterials (Se ENMs, 0.5 mg‧ kg− 1) significantly increased the …

Arsenic is a ubiquitous toxic element that can be accumulated into plant parts. The present
study investigated the response of Pteris cretica and Spinacia oleracea to As treatment …

We need to improve food production to feed the ever growing world population especially in
a changing climate. Nutrient deficiency in soils is one of the primary bottlenecks affecting the …
