Potassium (K) is an essential element for the growth and development of plants; however, its
scarcity or excessive level leads to distortion of numerous functions in plants. It takes part in …

Drought and salinity are among the most important environmental factors that hampered
agricultural productivity worldwide. Both stresses can induce several morphological …

Various environmental stresses singly or in combination generate excess amounts of
reactive oxygen species (ROS), leading to oxidative stress and impaired redox homeostasis …

The root: shoot ratio has long been known to be enhanced in plants under drought stress.
Here we discovered that osmotic stress enhances long-distance sucrose transport to …

Potassium, mostly as a cation (K+), together with calcium (Ca2+) are the most abundant
inorganic chemicals in plant cellular media, but they are rarely discussed. K+ is not a …

Like all higher organisms, plants have evolved in the context of a microbial world, shaping
both their evolution and their contemporary ecology. Interactions between plant roots and …

Sucrose is the main photosynthetic product in plants, and acts as a major energy substrate
and signaling regulator of plant growth. Furthermore, sucrose is involved in the responses to …

Among the plant nutrients, potassium (K) is one of the vital elements required for plant
growth and physiology. Potassium is not only a constituent of the plant structure but it also …

Salinity and drought stresses affect plant growth worldwide and limit crop production. Auxin
is crucial in regulating plants' salinity and drought stress adaptative response. As a chemical …

Sugars are the most important regulators that facilitate many physiological processes, such
as photosynthesis, seed germination, flowering, senescence, and many more under various …
