Plant growth regulators have an important role in various developmental processes during
the life cycle of plants. They are involved in abiotic stress responses and tolerance. They …

Plant nutrition is an important aspect that contributes significantly to sustainable agriculture,
whereas minerals enrichment in edible source implies global human health; hence, both …

Abiotic stresses are various environmental factors that inhibit a normal plant growth and limit
the crop productivity. Plant scientists have been attempting for a long time to understand …

The annual cost of lost crop production from exposure to salinity has major impacts on food
security in all parts of the world. Salinity stress disturbs energy metabolism and knowledge …

Salinity exerts a severe detrimental effect on crop yields globally. Growth of plants in saline
soils results in physiological stress, which disrupts the essential biochemical processes of …

Being more sensitive to salt stress among the cereals, growth of rice (Oryza sativa L.) has
been habitually affected by salinity. Although, several practices have evolved to sustain the …

In this study, the effects of exogenous MT on phenolic acids biosynthesis and the response
to NaCl stress in germinating barley were investigated to explicate the role and molecular …

Melatonin (MT) has gained increasing attention due to its pleiotropic effects. In this study, the
function of exogenous MT on the response to NaCl stress and isoflavone biosynthesis in …

BACKGROUND Calcium is an essential macronutrient for plant growth. Although it has been
shown that exogenous Ca application can increase plant resistance to abiotic stress, little is …

Abstract Effect of calcium chloride (CaCl 2) on γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) accumulation
pathways in fresh-cut pears was investigated. The metabolites, enzyme activity and gene …
