Reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation is a usual phenomenon in a plant both under a
normal and stressed condition. However, under unfavorable or adverse conditions, ROS …

Ascorbic acid is among the most abundant antioxidants in the lung, where it likely plays a
key role in the mechanism by which particulate air pollution initiates a biological response …

Abstract Microplastics (MPs), especially biodegradable MPs (BMPs) have attracted
increasing attention in recent years. However, the effects of MPs with different …

With the growing interest of society in healthy eating, the interest in fresh, ready-to-eat,
functional food, such as microscale vegetables (sprouted seeds and microgreens), has been …

Ascorbic acid is synthesised by eukaryotes, the known exceptions being primates and some
other animal groups which have lost functional gulonolactone oxidase. Prokaryotes do not …

Over-production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in plants under stress conditions is a
common phenomenon. Plants tend to counter this problem through their ability to synthesize …

Arsenic (As) is a highly toxic contaminant in the environment. Although both inorganic and
organic types of arsenic exist in the environment, the most common inorganic forms of As …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) regulate plant growth and development. ROS are kept at
low levels in cells to prevent oxidative damage, allowing them to be effective signaling …

The timing of flowering is determined by endogenous genetic components as well as
various environmental factors, such as day length, temperature, and stress. The genetic …

The plant hormone ABA (abscisic acid) plays an extremely important role in plant growth
and adaptive stress, including but are not limited to seed germination, stomatal closure …
