Maize (Zea mays L.) is a host to numerous pathogenic species that impose serious diseases
to its ear and foliage, negatively affecting the yield and the quality of the maize crop. A …

The individual effect of four human antibiotics on the microalgae Raphidocelis subcapitata
was investigated following a 120-h exposure. The effects were assessed by analyzing …

We tested antioxidant responses of the green microalga Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata
exposed to different concentrations of the three antibiotics erythromycin (ETM), ciprofloxacin …

Clarithromycin (CLA), a macrolide antibiotic, has been frequently detected in the global
surface waters. Concerns have been raised over the potential impacts of CLA on the non …

Water stress decreases plant productivity. To detect genes expressed under drought
conditions, we performed a gene expression study using drought tolerant (SP83-5073) and …

The plant defence activator acibenzolar-S-methyl (benzo [1, 2, 3] thiadiazole-7-carbothioic
acid-S-methyl ester, ASM; Bion 50 WG) was assayed on tomato seedlings for its ability to …

Multiple antibiotics are simultaneously detected in aquatic environment, so it is extremely
important to study the combined effects of their mixtures. In this study, we investigated the …

Sugarcane represents an important renewable source among biofuel crops with high
capability to assimilate carbon among the C4 plants. Limited availability of freshwater …

Growth and antioxidants levels of shoot of 10-d-old maize lines (Zea mays L. Hybrid 351 and
Giza 2) differentially responded to atrazine treatment at the recommended field dose (RFD) …

As algae are extremely sensitive to heavy-metal ions and can be critical biological indicators
in the heavy-metal toxicity analyses conducted by environmental health researchers, this …
