Climate change has increased the overall impact of abiotic stress conditions such as
drought, salinity, and extreme temperatures on plants. Abiotic stress adversely affects the …

Many trace metals are essential micronutrients, but also potent toxins. Due to natural and
anthropogenic causes, vastly different trace metal concentrations occur in various habitats …

Arsenic (As) is a highly toxic contaminant in the environment. Although both inorganic and
organic types of arsenic exist in the environment, the most common inorganic forms of As …

Heavy metal contamination of soil and water causing toxicity/stress has become one
important constraint to crop productivity and quality. This situation has further worsened by …

One of the most significant manifestations of environmental stress in plants is the increased
production of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS). These ROS, if allowed to accumulate …

Plants have to counteract unavoidable stress-caused anomalies such as oxidative stress to
sustain their lives and serve heterotrophic organisms including humans. Among major …

Various abiotic stresses lead to the overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in
plants which are highly reactive and toxic and cause damage to proteins, lipids …

When plants are exposed to stressful environmental conditions, the production of Reactive
Oxygen Species (ROS) increases and can cause significant damage to the cells. Antioxidant …

Abiotic stresses impact growth, development, and productivity, and significantly limit the
global agricultural productivity mainly by impairing cellular physiology/biochemistry via …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are produced in plants as byproducts during many
metabolic reactions, such as photosynthesis and respiration. Oxidative stress occurs when …
