Global climate change and associated adverse abiotic stress conditions, such as drought,
salinity, heavy metals, waterlogging, extreme temperatures, oxygen deprivation, etc., greatly …

Various environmental stresses singly or in combination generate excess amounts of
reactive oxygen species (ROS), leading to oxidative stress and impaired redox homeostasis …

With the aim to investigate the mechanisms of action of nano plastics (nano PS) on plants,
seeds of Allium cepa were germinated for 72 h in the presence of polystyrene nano PS (50 …

Agroecosystems represent more and more a huge long-term sink for plastic compounds
which inevitably undergo fragmentation, generating micro-and nano-plastics, with potential …

Cold temperatures restrict plant growth, geographical extension of plant species, and
agricultural practices. This review deals with cold stress above freezing temperatures often …

Plants face abiotic stressors, such as extreme temperatures, drought, salinity, flood, and
heavy metals, which negatively impact their growth and development, leading to lower …

In plants, mitochondrial respiration supplies energy for biosynthesis, and its equilibrium with
photosynthesis determines the accumulation rate of plant biomass. Though the …

Strawberry, a globally popular crop whose fruit are known for their taste and health benefits,
were used to evaluate the effects of polyethylene microplastics (PE-MPs) on plant …

Grapes are sensitive to early autumn and spring low temperature damage. The current study
aimed to assay the effects of cold stress (+ 1° C for 4, 8, and 16 h) on three grapevine …

KARRIKINS INSENSITIVE2 (KAI2) is the receptor gene for karrikins, recently found to be
