Crops aimed at feeding an exponentially growing population are often exposed to a variety
of harsh environmental factors. Although plants have evolved ways of adjusting their …

Globally, agriculture is under a lot of pressure due to rising population and corresponding
increases in food demand. However, several variables, including improper mechanization …

Climate change has devastating effects on plant growth and yield. During ontogenesis,
plants are subjected to a variety of abiotic stresses, including drought and salinity, affecting …

Plant microbiome (or phytomicrobiome) engineering (PME) is an anticipated untapped
alternative strategy that could be exploited for plant growth, health and productivity under …

Background The collective impact of climate change and soil salinity is continuously
increasing the degraded lands across the globe, bringing agricultural productivity and food …

Abiotic stress significantly limits plant growth and production. Drought, in particular, is a
severe constraint that affects growth and limits agricultural productivity on a global scale …

Plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) are excellent biocontrol agents and stimulators of
plant growth, nutrition, and production. Therefore, these plant-associated bacteria are …

Drought stress is reducing the production of crops globally. This research was designed to
evaluate the role of titanium dioxide (TiO 2 NPs) nanoparticles and calcium phosphate on …

The biotic and abiotic stresses are key constraints for food quality, crop yield and global food
security. It is necessary to take action to cope with global threats caused by abiotic and biotic …

Plant growth-promoting bacteria are one of the most interesting methods of controlling
fungal phytopathogens. These bacteria can participate in biocontrol via a variety of …
