Plants take up a wide range of trace metals/metalloids (hereinafter referred to as trace
metals) from the soil, some of which are essential but become toxic at high concentrations …

Due to their sessile state, plants are inevitably affected by and respond to the external
environment. So far, plants have developed multiple adaptation and regulation strategies to …

The cationic nature of heptamethine cyanines gives them the capacity to form aggregates
with salts by electrostatic interactions. In this work, NaCl promoted J‐aggregate formation of …

Plants are exposed to diverse abiotic stresses like drought, heat, salinity, and high-metal
concentrations at different stages of their life cycle. As protection against stress, plants …

Reducing carbon dioxide (CO 2) emissions has been a hot research topic in recent years.
The integration of microalgae cultivation using CO 2 from power plants and factories has …

Lipoxygenases (LOXs), naturally occurring enzymes, are widely distributed in plants and
animals. LOXs can be non-sulfur iron, non-heme iron, or manganese-containing …

Several enzymes play a key role in plant growth and development. Among these,
lipoxygenases family of enzymes are important. Lipoxygenases are a ubiquitous family of …

Tolerance level to cadmium (Cd) toxicity is generally associated with reductions of the
internal Cd accumulation in living organisms. In plants, Cd exposure frequently triggers …

Background Metal homeostasis is critical for plant growth, development and adaptation to
environmental stresses and largely governed by a variety of metal transporters. The plant …

Epigenetics involves the heritable changes in patterns of gene expression determined by
developmental and abiotic stresses, ie, drought, cold, salinity, trace metals, and heat. Gene …
