In view of occurring extreme weather conditions, food security for humans is highly concerned with climate change worldwide. The only solution to this dire problem is to …
Silicon (Si) application to crops is a promising way for the deployment of sustainable agriculture. Here, the effects of Si on salt stress tolerance were investigated in alfalfa …
The aim of this manuscript was to investigate the role of calcium compounds, viz., Ca (OH) 2, Ca (NO 3) 2, and CaCl 2 (each used at 0.3 mM and 0.5 mM concentration) as seed priming …
Silicon (Si) application has emerged as a promising solution to improve plant growth under stressful conditions. However, the mechanisms by which Si alleviated salt damage …
Pulses are the main source of protein and minerals in the vegetarian diet. These are primarily cultivated on marginal lands with few inputs in several resource-poor countries of …
Salinity is one of the most deleterious abiotic stresses limiting plant growth and productivity. In the present study, we aimed to assess the interplaying roles of 20 mM proline and 3 mM …
Abstract Purpose In the Earth's crust, silicon (Si) is the most abundant element after oxygen, while, under salt stress, its role in the tolerance of aromatic and medicinal plants (AMPs) is …
Medicinal legumes (Fabaceae family) bear primary and secondary metabolites and other important compounds such as nutraceuticals, pharmaceuticals, and other useful products …
The distribution of plants on the planet is associated with high temperatures as a limiting factor. Indian almond seedlings were planted in pots subjected to ascorbic acid (AsA) and …
