Heavy metal contamination of soil and water causing toxicity/stress has become one
important constraint to crop productivity and quality. This situation has further worsened by …

We have developed a compendium and interactive platform, named Stress Combinations
and their Interactions in Plants Database (SCIPDb; http://www. nipgr. ac. in/scipdb. php) …

Exposure of plants to adverse environmental conditions leads to extensive transcriptional
changes. Genome-wide approaches and gene function studies have revealed the …

Abstract Background Hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum) is a globally important crop. Heat,
drought and their combination dramatically reduce wheat yield and quality, but the …

Considering global climate change, the incidence of combined drought and heat stress is
likely to increase in the future and will considerably influence plant-pathogen interactions …

Plants are constantly exposed to various abiotic and biotic stresses in nature. Abiotic
stresses such as salinity, drought and extreme temperatures (heat, cold and freezing) are …

Background Rice plants show yellowing, stunting, withering, reduced tillering and utimately
low productivity in susceptible varieties under low temperature stress. Comparative …

Background Ocimum L. of family Lamiaceae is a well known genus for its ethnobotanical,
medicinal and aromatic properties, which are attributed to innumerable phenylpropanoid …

Abiotic and biotic stress responses are traditionally thought to be regulated by discrete
signaling mechanisms. Recent experimental evidence revealed a more complex picture …

The hyperaccumulating ecotype of Sedum alfredii Hance is a cadmium (Cd)/zinc/lead co‐
hyperaccumulating species of Crassulaceae. It is a promising phytoremediation candidate …
