Reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation is a usual phenomenon in a plant both under a
normal and stressed condition. However, under unfavorable or adverse conditions, ROS …

Heat stress adversely affects plants growth potential. Global warming is reported to increase
in the intensity, frequency, and duration of heatwaves, eventually affecting ecology …

Nitric oxide (NO) and abscisic acid (ABA) play a significant role to combat abiotic stress.
Application of 100 µM sodium nitroprusside (SNP, NO donor) or ABA alleviated heat stress …

To minimize the damaging effects of stresses, plant growth regulators (PGRs) are widely
used to sustain the plant life under stress-prone environments. So, a study was carried out to …

Introduction/Background Direct-seeded rice is exceptionally vulnerable to chilling stress,
especially at the seed germination and seedling growth stages in the early season of the …

Jatropha curcas is an oilseed species that is considered an excellent alternative energy
source for fossil-based fuels for growing in arid and semiarid regions, where salinity is …

Salinity impairs plant growth and development, thereby leading to low yield and inferior
quality of crops. Nitric oxide (NO) has emerged as an essential signaling molecule that is …

Light harvesting is finetuned through two main strategies controlling energy transfer to the
reaction centers of photosystems: i) regulating the amount of light energy at the absorption …

To mitigate the deleterious effects of abiotic stresses signaling molecules play a significant
role. The present study was aimed to assess the responses of two differentially salt-tolerant …

The heat shock transcription factor (Hsf) family, an important member in plant stress
response, affects cadmium (Cd) tolerance in plants. In this study, we identified and …
