Several anthropogenic activities including mining, modern agricultural practices, and
industrialization have long-term detrimental effect on our environment. All these factors lead …

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 …

Environmental matrices are polluted with the plethora of contaminants, and among these,
the concerns related to heavy metals (HMs) are also included. Due to the low cost in a long …

Oxidative stress occurs when crop plants are exposed to extreme abiotic conditions that lead
to the excessive production and accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Those …

The occurrence of heavy metals in soils may be beneficial or toxic to the environment. The
biota may require some of these elements considered essentials (like Fe, Zn, Cu or Mo) in …

Cadmium (Cd) can interfere with plant gene expression, change the content of metabolites
and affect plant growth. In this study, untargeted metabolomics (LC-MS) and RNA-Seq …

Cadmium (Cd) contamination is a serious agricultural and environmental hazard. The study
