Soil salinization is an essential environmental stressor, threatening agricultural yield and
ecological security worldwide. Saline soils accumulate excessive soluble salts which are …

Approximately 1 billion ha of the global land surface is currently salt-affected, representing
about 7% of the earth's land surface. Whereas most of it results from natural geochemical …

Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a ubiquitous four-carbon, non-protein amino acid.
GABA has been widely studied in animal central nervous systems, where it acts as an …

Agriculture is expanding into regions that are affected by salinity. This review considers the
energetic costs of salinity tolerance in crop plants and provides a framework for a …

Metabolomics is an emerging branch of “omics” and it involves identification and
quantification of metabolites and chemical footprints of cellular regulatory processes in …

Salinity is an issue impairing crop production across the globe. Under salinity stress,
besides the osmotic stress and Na+ toxicity, ROS (reactive oxygen species) …

Global climate change and associated adverse abiotic and biotic stress conditions affect
plant growth and development, and agricultural sustainability in general. Abiotic and biotic …

Unfavorable environmental conditions such as heat, cold, drought, metal/metalloid toxicity,
and pathogens enhance production of intra-and inter-cellular levels of reactive oxygen …

Observations of woody plant mortality in coastal ecosystems are globally widespread, but
the overarching processes and underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. This …

Nanopesticides are considered to be a promising alternative strategy for enhancing
bioactivity and delaying the development of pathogen resistance to pesticides. Here, a new …
