Increasing soil salinization largely impacts crop yield worldwide. To deal with salinity stress,
plants exhibit an array of responses, including root system architecture remodelling. Here …

As a result of climate change and increasing engineering activities, soil-related disasters
such as slope failures and sandstorms have become more frequent worldwide. These …

Salt stress is a major limiting factor for plant growth and crop yield. High salinity causes
osmotic stress followed by ionic stress, both of which disturb plant growth and metabolism …

Biochar has been used as a sustainable amendment to mitigate environmental risks,
improve plant growth and soil properties. This study conducted laboratory column tests to …

Human activity and natural processes have led to the widespread dissemination of metals
and metalloids, many of which are toxic and have a negative impact on plant growth and …

Improving drought tolerance in wheat is crucial for maintaining productivity and food
security. Roots are responsible for the uptake of water from soil, and a number of root traits …

Plant tropism refers to the directed movement of an organ or organism in response to
external stimuli. Typically, these stimuli induce hormone transport that triggers cell growth or …

Background Even with extensive root growth, plants may fail to access subsoil water and
nutrients when root-restricting soil layers are present. Biopores, created from decaying roots …

Characterizing spectral effects of blue and red light ratios on plants could help expand our
understanding of factors that regulate growth and development, which is becoming …

Hydrotropism is the movement or growth of a plant towards water. It is a type of tropism, or
directional growth response, that is triggered by water. Plants are able to detect water …
