Over the past few decades, the amount of ultraviolet-B radiation (UV-B) reaching the earth's
surface has been altered due to climate change and stratospheric ozone dynamics. This …

Ultraviolet-B is an important fraction of sunlight which influences the plant performance
either positively or adversely in terms of growth, physiology, biochemistry, and major active …

Accumulation of secondary metabolites is a key process in the growth and development of
plants under different biotic/abiotic constraints. Many studies highlighted the regulatory …

Despite acting as environmental stress, UV-B also plays a regulatory role in the plant's
growth and secondary metabolism. UV-B-induced changes show variations between and …

Jasmonic acid (JA) and Salicylic acid (SA) are the essential plant hormones responsible for
the plant's proper growth and development. These signaling molecules have a significant …

Abstract Ultraviolet-B radiation (UV-B) is inherent part of solar spectrum and tropospheric
ozone (O 3) is a potent secondary air pollutant. Therefore the present study was conducted …

Current scenarios under global climate change envisage a considerable increase in
ultraviolet B (UV‐B) radiation in near future which may affect the productivity and yield …

Exposure to elevated UV‐B (eUV‐B) is well known for its phytotoxicity, although studies
made with UV‐B exposure and its impact on grasses are limited especially from tropical …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are reactive molecules formed during the normal
metabolism of plants such as superoxide radical, hydrogen peroxide, hydroxyl radicals and …

The effects of supplemental ultraviolet-B (s-UV-B; 3.6 kJ m− 2 day− 1 above ambient)
radiation on plant metabolite profile and free radical scavenging activities of Withania …
