Anthropogenic activities in the past and present eras have created global warming and
consequently a storm of drought stress, affecting both plants and animals. Being sessile …

Heavy metal (HM) stress in plants has received considerable global attention as it threatens
sustainable growth in agriculture worldwide. Hence, desperate efforts have been …

Plant growth and development are critically influenced by unpredictable abiotic factors. To
survive fluctuating changes in their environments, plants have had to develop robust …

Under the natural environment, nutrient signals interact with phytohormones to coordinate
and reprogram plant growth and survival. Sugars are important molecules that control …

The widespread use of bisphenol A (BPA) has led to its ubiquity in the natural environment.
Thus, BPA is considered as a contaminant of emerging concern. Due to its widespread use …

Although drought is an increasing problem in agriculture, the contribution of the root‐
associated bacterial microbiome to plant adaptation to water stress is poorly studied. We …

Background Auxin may have a positive effect on plants under drought stress. White clover is
widely cultivated and often prone to water shortages. In the present study, we investigated …

The rice root system is important for growth. The crosstalk between auxin and cytokinin
mediates root initiation and elongation. However, it remains unclear how the transcriptional …

The plant shikimate pathway directs bulk carbon flow toward biosynthesis of aromatic amino
acids (AAAs, ie tyrosine, phenylalanine, and tryptophan) and numerous aromatic …

Soil compaction is a global problem causing inadequate rooting and poor yield in crops.
Accumulating evidence indicates that phytohormones coordinately regulate root growth via …
