This paper aims to elucidate the effects of exogenous brassinolide (BL) on maize
germination and seedling growth under chilling stress. The cold-resistant maize hybrid …

Brassinosteroids (BRs) are ubiquitous plant steroid hormones, playing diverse roles in plant
growth, development and stress responses. Defects in BRs biosynthesis or signaling result …

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous organic pollutants that raise
environmental concerns because of their toxicity. Their accumulation in vascular plants …

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are persistent organic pollutants often found in the
atmosphere. Phytoremediation of airborne PCBs is an emerging new concept to minimize …

Brassinosteroids (BRs) play important roles in plant growth, development, and stress
responses through the receptor, Brassinosteroid-insensitive 1 (BRI1), which perceives BRs …

Phytoremediation is a promising method for decontaminating polychlorinated biphenyls
(PCBs) in the soil and environment. However, the efficiency of phytoremediation is hindered …

Lead is one of the most hazardous pollutants to both the environment as well as human
beings. As one of the approaches to enhance phytoremediation, brassinosteroids are …

Carambola fruit produced in the tropical and subtropical region could easily suffer the
postharvest loss in low temperature storage and cold chain logistics owing to the hazard of …

Among the various abiotic stresses, low temperature is one of the major environmental
constraints that limit the plant development and crop productivity. Plants are able to adapt to …

The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of exogenous 24-epibrassinolide
(EBR) on the substances involved in antioxidation and osmoregulation responses of young …
