Drought poses serious threats to global crop production and its intensity is continuously
soaring due to global warming. Brassica napus L. is an essential oilseed crop with an …

A large number of reviews have discussed many aspects of oxidative burst due to plant
exposure to biotic and abiotic stresses, including the dual role of reactive oxygen species …

Seed priming is a presowing technique in which seeds are moderately hydrated to the point
where pregermination metabolic processes begin without actual germination. Seeds are …

Seed priming is a pre‐germination treatment administered through various chemical,
physical and biological agents, which induce mild stress during the early phases of …

This study was conducted to evaluate the influence of brassinosteroid (24-epibrassinolide,
EBL) seed priming and optimal nitrogen (N) supply in improving salt tolerance in soybean …

Plants face various adverse environmental conditions, particularly with the ongoing changes
in global climate, which drastically affect the growth, development and productivity of crops …

Plants are continuously exposed to stress conditions, such that they have developed
sophisticated and elegant survival strategies, which are reflected in their phenotypic …

Salinity along with drought is one of the leading abiotic stresses in agriculture which foster
growth retardation, physiological abnormalities, and lower production output of field crops …

Seed priming is an effective technology of promoting seed germination and plant growth in
crop production. This study investigated IAA as a seed priming agent in cotton, because …

The plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) triggers cellular tolerance responses to osmotic
stress caused by drought and salinity. ABA controls the turgor pressure of guard cells in the …
