Heat stress (HS) caused by rapidly warming climate has become a serious threat to global
food security. Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is a staple food crop for over half of the world's …

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is steadily gaining more attention in the field of molecular
biology research. It is a major REDOX (reduction–oxidation reaction) metabolite and at high …

Abstract Hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2) acts as a significant regulatory component interrelated
with signal transduction in plants. The positive role of H 2 O 2 in plants subjected to myriad …

Heat stress (HS) is expected to be of increasing worldwide concern in the near future,
especially with regard to crop yield and quality as a consequence of rising or varying …

Cadmium (Cd) is a heavy metal that is toxic to plants and animals. Nitrogen (N), the most
significant macro-nutrient and a common input for crop production, is often excessively …

Soil cadmium (Cd) contamination threatens food safety and human health, particularly in
developing countries. Previously, we have proposed that boron (B) could reduce Cd uptake …

Root hairs tie the root system to the soil substrate, facilitate water and nutrient absorption,
and enable the interaction with microbes in the soil. Root hair development can be classified …

Exopolysaccharides (EPS) are macromolecules with environment beneficial properties.
Currently, numerous studies focus on the absorption of heavy metals by EPS, but less …

Irrigation has been considered an effective approach for decreasing cadmium (Cd) uptake
and accumulation in rice (Oryza sativa), but increasing evidence shows that the effects of …

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) plays a vital role in Al3+ stress resistance in plants, but the
underlying mechanism is unclear. In the present study, pretreatment with 2 μM of the H2S …
