Cadmium (Cd) is one of the most toxic metals in the environment, and has noxious effects on
plant growth and production. Cd-accumulating plants showed reduced growth and …

Cadmium (Cd) is one of the main pollutants in paddy fields, and its accumulation in rice
(Oryza sativa L.) and subsequent transfer to food chain is a global environmental issue. This …

Microplastics pollution in farmlands has become a major concern. However, few studies
have assessed the effects of microplastics on higher plants. In this study, we investigated the …

Summary mi RNA s contribute to plant resistance against pathogens. Previously, we found
that the function of miR398b in immunity in rice differs from that in Arabidopsis. However, the …

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 …

Heavy metal cadmium (Cd) naturally occurs in soil and is a hazardous trace contaminant for
humans, animals, and plants. The main sources of Cd pollution in soil include overuse of …

As sessile organisms, plants are particularly affected by climate change and will face more
frequent and extreme temperature variations in the future. Plants have developed a diverse …

The frequent occurrence of heat and drought stress can severely reduce agricultural
production of field crops. In comparison to a single stress, the combination of both heat (H) …

Cadmium (Cd), as a heavy metal, presents substantial biological toxicity and has harmful
effects on human health. To lower the ingress levels of human Cd, it is necessary for Cd …

Salt stress severely affects the growth and productivity of Glycyrrhiza uralensis. Our previous
research found that the endophyte Bacillus cereus G2 alleviated the osmotic and oxidative …
