Melatonin (MT), a ubiquitous signaling molecule, is known to improve plant growth. Its
regulatory function alongside nitric oxide (NO) is known to induce heavy metal (Cd and Pb) …

Arable land contamination with nickel (Ni) has become a major threat to worldwide crop
production. Recently, melatonin has appeared as a promising stress-relief substance that …

Nitrogen dioxide (NO 2) is a common outdoor air pollutant, which has adverse effects on the
environment and human health. Herein, NO 2 inhibited photosynthesis and antioxidant …

Main conclusion Melatonin has a protective effect against heavy metal stress in plants by
immobilizing HM in cell walls and sequestering them in root cell vacuoles, reducing HM's …

Two independent trials were conducted to examine the involvement of nitric oxide (NO) in
MT-mediated tolerance to Cd toxicity in wheat plants. Cadmium toxicity considerably led to a …

Global warming is impacting the growth and development of economically important but
sensitive crops, such as soybean (Glycine max L.). Using pleiotropic signaling molecules …

Melatonin, a pleiotropic regulatory molecule, is involved in the defense against heavy metal
stress. Here, we used a combined transcriptomic and physiological approach to investigate …

Melatonin (MT) regulates several physiological activities in plants. However, information on
how MT regulates soybean growth under low-temperature (LT) stress is lacking. To better …

Globally, crop production has been widely threatened by contamination of arable lands with
heavy metals including Nickel (Ni). Stress-relief molecule melatonin (ME) has been widely …

Heavy metal toxicity is one of the most devastating abiotic stresses. Heavy metals cause
serious damage to plant growth and productivity, which is a major problem for sustainable …
