Abiotic environmental stresses can alter plant metabolism, leading to inhibition or promotion
of secondary metabolites. Although the crucial roles of these compounds in plant …

Cyanogenic glycosides (CNglcs) are bioactive plant products derived from amino acids.
Structurally, these specialized plant compounds are characterized as α-hydroxynitriles …

Drought stress (DS) is a serious abiotic stress and a major concern across the globe as its
intensity is continuously climbing. Therefore, it is direly needed to develop new management …

Background: Crops grown under elevated atmospheric CO 2 concentrations (eCO 2) contain
less protein. Crops particularly affected include rice and wheat, which are primary sources of …

C 3 carbon fixation has a bad reputation, primarily because it is associated with
photorespiration, a biochemical pathway thought to waste a substantial amount of the …

Mycorrhizal symbioses link the biosphere with the lithosphere by mediating nutrient cycles
and energy flow though terrestrial ecosystems. A more mechanistic understanding of these …

Background Biochemical models predict that photosynthesis in C 3 plants is most frequently
limited by the slower of two processes, the maximum capacity of the enzyme Rubisco to …

The purpose of this study was to assess the quality of cassava cultivars, in terms of
cyanogenic potential and composition of macro-and micronutrients, sampled from different …

Arbuscular mycorrhiza fungi's (AMF) role in plant nutrition and stress management is well
known, but very few researches and studies have been conducted so far on the fungal ability …

Abstract Effects of the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus Rhizophagus irregularis on plant
growth, carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) accumulation, and partitioning was investigated in …
