Oxidative stress is common in plants growing under extreme environments, such as water
shortage, salinity, heavy metals, and temperature extremes. To overcome oxidative stress …

Among the types of abiotic stresses, drought is one of the most serious growth limiting
factors for crop plants. In recent years, various strategies have been employed to alleviate …

Tremendously rapid global climate change creates different types of ecological issues such
as various types of abiotic stresses. Like other environmental stresses, terminal drought …

Water deficits have been considered the most restrictive environmental constraint on
agricultural production worldwide. The current study aimed to investigate the role of silicon …

Water stress influences plant growth and metabolism. Carnitine, an amino acid involved in
lipid metabolism, has been related to responses of plants to abiotic stresses, also …

Salinity is one of the most deleterious abiotic stresses limiting plant growth and productivity.
In the present study, we aimed to assess the interplaying roles of 20 mM proline and 3 mM …

This study investigates the protective role of silicon (Si) on growth performance, nutrient
homeostasis, and C: N: P stoichiometric of sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) seedlings under …

Plant endogenous mechanisms are not always sufficient enough to mitigate drought stress,
therefore, the exogenous application of elicitors, such as salicylic acid, is necessary. In this …

Abstract Putrescine (Put), melatonin (MT), proline (Pro), and potassium fulvic acid (MFA) are
widely used as plant growth regulators to enhance stress tolerance. However, the roles of …

Introduction Water scarcity is a challenge for sesame cultivation under rainfed conditions. In
this scenario, a potential strategy to alleviate the water deficit is the application of plant …
