The application of nanostructured materials, designed for sustainable crop production,
reduces nutrient losses, suppresses disease and enhances the yields. Nanomaterials …

The increased prevalence of high temperatures (HTs) around the world is a major global
concern, as they dramatically affect agronomic productivity. Upon HT exposure, plants sense …

Nitric oxide (NO) is a gaseous reactive oxygen species (ROS) that has evolved as a
signaling hormone in many physiological processes in animals. In plants it has been …

In plants dehydration imposed by salinity can invoke physical changes at the interface of the
plasma membrane and cell wall. Changes in hydrostatic pressure activate ion channels and …

Salinity is one of the most challenging problems that adversely affects growth and
development of plants. Plants adopt various strategies to overcome the adverse effects of …

The SnRK2 family members are plant-specific serine/threonine kinases involved in plant
response to abiotic stresses and abscisic acid (ABA)-dependent plant development …

Water deficit caused by drought is a significant threat to crop growth and production. Nitric
oxide (NO), a water-and lipid-soluble free radical, plays an important role in cytoprotection …

Background and aims After a series of seminal works during the last decade of the 20th
century, nitric oxide (NO) is now firmly placed in the pantheon of plant signals. Nitric oxide …

Various data indicate that nitric oxide (NO) is an endogenous signal in plants that mediates
responses to several stimuli. Experimental evidence in support of such signalling roles for …

A decade-long investigation of nitric oxide (NO) functions in plants has led to its
characterization as a biological mediator involved in key physiological processes. Despite …
