Using chlorophyll (Chl) a fluorescence many aspects of the photosynthetic apparatus can be
studied, both in vitro and, noninvasively, in vivo. Complementary techniques can help to …

When compared to other organisms, plants are atypical with respect to isoprenoid
biosynthesis: they utilize two distinct and separately compartmentalized pathways to build …

Photosynthesis is the single most important source of O2 and organic chemical energy
necessary to support all non-autotrophic life forms. Plants compartmentalize this elaborate …

This review represents systematic and integrated picture of pesticide exposure to plant and
its effect on growth and metabolism. Decades ago, agrochemicals were introduced aiming at …

Microalgae are fast-growing photosynthetic organisms which have the potential to be
exploited as an alternative source of liquid fuels to meet growing global energy demand …

To protect crops from pests, pesticides are used. Pesticides also cause toxicity to crop plants
and persist in plant parts in the form of pesticide residues. Brassinosteroids (BRs) are known …

Pesticides are widely used to protect crop plants from various insect pests. However,
application of pesticides causes phytotoxicity to plants which results in their impaired growth …

Fomesafen is an herbicide used in soybean production, and sugar beet is a sensitive crop to
fomesafen. When the herbicide is sprayed in the field, it is easy to cause floating and …

Chlorophyll fluorescence-based methods have been used for many years to study the effect
of environmental factors (including herbicides) on plants, and, with the development of very …

Nicosulfuron is an ingredient in photosynthesis-inhibiting herbicides and has been widely
used in corn post-emergence weed control. In the current study, a pair of sister lines, HK301 …
