Plants are often exposed to abiotic stresses such as drought, salinity, heat, cold, and heavy
metals that induce complex responses, which result in reduced growth as well as crop yield …

Wheat constitutes pivotal position for ensuring food and nutritional security; however, rapidly
rising soil and water salinity pose a serious threat to its production globally. Salinity stress …

Salinity stress is a major threat to global food production and its intensity is continuously
increasing because of anthropogenic activities. Wheat is a staple food and a source of …

Background Soil salinity and drought are an enormous worldwide problem for agriculture,
horticulture and silviculture. The initial responses of plants to drought and salinity are similar; …

Plants are frequently exposed to a plethora of unfavorable or even adverse environmental
conditions, termed as abiotic stresses (such as salinity, drought, heat, cold, flooding, heavy …

Phytohormones are chemical messengers produced in one part of plant and translocated to
the other parts, where they play critical roles in regulating plant responses to stress at …

This review outlines nitrogen (N) responses in crop production and potential management
decisions to ameliorate abiotic stresses for better crop production. N is a primary constituent …

The action of phytohormone producing bacteria and plant growth regulators on germination
and seedling growth of wheat under saline conditions were studied. Seed dormancy …

Salt accumulation in irrigated soils is a worldwide hazard to plants, which adversely reduces
crop productivity. Broccoli is considered moderately tolerant to salinity. Melatonin is a …

Abiotic stresses cause changes in the balance of phytohormones in plants and result in
inhibited root growth and an increase in the susceptibility of plants to root rot disease. The …
