Industrial revolution brought prodigious encroachment on agricultural productivity but at
apparent environmental costs. One of the major unfortunate consequences of …

Heavy metal (HM) toxicity is one of the major abiotic stresses leading to hazardous effects in
plants. A common consequence of HM toxicity is the excessive accumulation of reactive …

This review on aluminium stress in plants specifically addresses the dynamism of early root
growth responses to Al. Three response models, threshold for toxicity, hormesis, and …

Aluminum (Al) toxicity is the primary factor limiting crop production on acidic soils (pH values
of 5 or below), and because 50% of the world's potentially arable lands are acidic, Al toxicity …

Abstract Background Aluminium (Al) toxicity is the most important soil constraint for plant
growth and development in acid soils. The mechanism of Al-induced inhibition of root …

Aluminum is the major element in the soil and exists as a stable complex with oxygen and
silicate in neutral and weakly acidic soil. When the soil pH is lower than 4.5–5.0, Al is …

Aluminium (Al) toxicity is widely considered to be the most important growth‐limiting factor
for plants in strongly acid soils (pH< 5.0). The inhibition of root elongation in three varieties …

Aluminum toxicity is an important stress factor for plants in acidic environments. During the
last decade considerable advances have been made in both techniques to assess the …

Calluses from two ecotypes of reed (Phragmites communis Trin.) plant (dune reed [DR] and
swamp reed [SR]), which show different sensitivity to salinity, were used to study plant …

Metal contamination issues are becoming increasingly common in Australia and elsewhere,
with many documented cases of metal toxicity including in mining and agriculture. Metals …
