Abiotic stresses are the most common harmful factors, adversely affecting all aspects of
plants' life. Plants have to elicit appropriate responses against multifaceted effects of abiotic …

Self-incompatibility (SI) is a mechanism that many plant families employ to prevent self-
fertilization. In the Brassicaceae, the S-haplotype-specific interaction of the pollen-borne …

The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of arsenic (As) toxicity and the
mitigating role of nitric oxide (NO) donor sodium nitroprusside (SNP) on Vicia faba. Arsenics …

The present manuscript investigates the roles of silicon nanoparticles (SiNPs) in
ameliorating fluoride toxicity in the susceptible rice cultivar, IR-64. Fluoride toxicity reduced …

Oxidative stress is common consequence of abiotic stress in plants as well as cyanobacteria
caused by generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), an inevitable product of respiration …

Methylglyoxal (MG), a toxic compound produced as a by-product of several cellular
processes, such as respiration and photosynthesis, is well known for its deleterious effects …

The glyoxalase system was discovered over a hundred years ago and since then it has
been claimed to provide the role of an indispensable enzyme system in order to protect cells …

In plants, glyoxalase enzymes are activated under stress conditions to mitigate the toxic
effects of hyperaccumulated methylglyoxal (MG), a highly reactive carbonyl compound. Until …

Developmental activities have escalated mercury (Hg) content in the environment and
caused food security problems. The present investigation describes mercury-incited stress in …
