Continuous discoveries in plant and crop physiology have resulted in an abundance of new
information since the publication of the second edition of the Handbook of Plant and Crop …

Phytotoxic effects of a single heavy metal on different crops are widely reported; however,
consequences of combined metal toxicity on maize are rarely investigated. In this study, a …

Treatment with 50 μM CuSO 4 for five days caused significant decrease in dry-matter
production and protein level of ten-day-old sunflower seedling roots. An increase of …

Nitric oxide (NO) is an important molecule that acts in many tissues to regulate a diverse
range of physiological processes. It is becoming apparent that NO is a ubiquitous signal in …

Peroxisomes are cell organelles bounded by a single membrane with a basically oxidative
metabolism. Peroxisomes house catalase and H2O2‐producing flavin‐oxidases as the main …

In this work the influence of the nodulation of pea (Pisum sativum L.) plants on the oxidative
metabolism of different leaf organelles from young and senescent plants was studied …

The current manuscript presents the first report on the ameliorative roles of exogenous
spermine (Spm) during prolonged fluoride-induced toxicity and oxidative damages in the …

Brassica juncea (Indian mustard) L. plants were exposed to different concentrations (0.0,
0.1, 0.2 and 0.3 mM) of arsenic (V) and harvested after 30 and 60 days of sowing for the …

The presence of heavy metals in the soils is undoubtedly one of the prime abiotic stresses in
the world. There are a considerable amount of plant yield losses because of heavy metal …

Metal-ion contamination (Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn) on sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) growth
and total leaf protein expression were studied in the present work. The height, mass …
