Background Climate change has escalated global environmental risks, particularly the
effects of abiotic stresses on agricultural productivity. Improving crop plants' acclimation to …

The purpose of this work was to study the effect of selenium nanoparticles (Se NPs) on the
biological and morphofunctional parameters of barley seeds (Hordéum vulgáre L.) We used …

Selenium (Se) is found in plants both in inorganic and organic forms as selenoamino acids
and methylated complexes. Se influences growth and physiological parameters, viz. root …

Selenium (Se) has been extensively reported to alleviate negative effects of abiotic stresses,
including drought on several economic plants. This study was conducted to evaluate the …

Background Salinity stress is a major limiting factor for plant growth, particularly in arid and
semi-arid environments. To mitigate the detrimental effects of salinity stress on vegetable …

Abstract Background Selenium (Se) is an important trace element with several positive
impacts for animal and human health. Salinity poses a substantial problem to agriculture …

In this study, the effects of foliar application of selenium (Se) at different concentrations were
examined based on changes in several parameters such as nitrogen, phosphorous, and …

In order to withstand abiotic stress conditions, plants accumulate a wide range of metabolic
products such as proline. There exists a co-relation between proline accumulation and salt …

Tea (Camellia sinensis), a globally cultivated beverage crop, is sensitive to drought, which
can have an adverse effect on the yield and quality of tea. Azoxystrobin (AZ) is one kind of …

The development and productivity of most agricultural plants can be adversely affected by
the presence of salts in soil. It is vital in these situations to increase agricultural yield …
