In recent years, the use of plant hormones, such as abscisic acid (ABA) and 6-
benzylaminopurine (6-BAP), has gained significant attention for their role in mitigating …

The chromium (Cr) induced phytotoxicity avowed the scientific community to develop stress
mitigation strategies to restrain the Cr accumulation inside the food chain. Whereas …

Chromium (Cr) accumulation in crops reduces yield. Here, we grew two chickpea cultivars,
Pusa 2085 (Cr-tolerant) and Pusa Green 112 (Cr-sensitive), in hydroponic and pot …

Chromium (Cr) phytotoxicity affirmed the need of mitigation strategies to remediate polluted
soils and restricts its accumulation in the food chains. Salicylic acid (SA) and silicon (Si) play …

Ascorbic acid (AsA) and selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) were versatile plant growth
regulators, playing multiple roles in promoting plant growth under heavy metal stresses. This …

The present study assesses the toxicity of hexavalent chromium [Cr (VI)] on maize (Zea
mays L.) seedlings. Three different levels of Cr stress [50, 100 and 200 mg/l CrO 3] were …

The phytotoxicity of chromium (Cr) makes it obligatory for the researchers to develop
strategies that seek to hinder its accumulation in food chains. While, protective role of …

The multifarious problems created by arsenic (As), for collective environment and human
health, serve a cogent case for searching integrative agricultural approaches to attain food …

In this study, the effect of 24-Epibrassinolide (EBL) on antioxidant system in Arabidopsis
thaliana were investigated under arsenate [As (V)] stress. The enzyme activity of superoxide …

The cultivation of leafy vegetables on metal contaminated soil embodies a serious threat to
yield and quality. In the present study, the potential role of exogenous jasmonic acid (JA; 0 …
