Although trace elements are essential for life, environmental contamination due to metal
accumulation and overuse in various sectors, such as healthcare, agriculture, industry, and …

Reduction in soil fertility and depletion of natural resources due to current intensive
agricultural practices along with climate changes are the major constraints for crop …

Zinc oxide nanoparticles (nZn) have emerged as vital agents in combating arsenic (As)
stress in plants. However, their role in mitigation of As induced oxidative stress is less …

The Cd toxicity causes severe perturbations to the plant's growth and development. Here,
polyploid and diploid rice lines were treated with zinc-oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) and …

The global biomass production from agricultural farmlands is facing severe constraints from
abiotic stresses like soil salinization. Salinity-mediated stress triggered the overproduction of …

Chromium (Cr) is a toxic heavy metal for both animals and plants. The multifunctional
signaling molecule melatonin can confer plant tolerance to heavy metal stress, but the …

Pesticide overuse has led to serious global concerns regarding food safety and
environmental pollution. Although the reduction of pesticide residue is critical, our …

Cadmium (Cd) can interfere with plant gene expression, change the content of metabolites
and affect plant growth. In this study, untargeted metabolomics (LC-MS) and RNA-Seq …

Due to unprecedented climate change, rapid industrialization and increasing use of
agrochemicals, abiotic stress, such as drought, low temperature, high salinity and heavy …

The heavy metal contamination, which causes toxic effects on plants, has evolved into a
significant constraint to plant quality and yield. This scenario has been exacerbated by …
