Aluminum (Al) is the third most ubiquitous metal in the earth's crust. A decrease in soil pH
below 5 increases its solubility and availability. However, its impact on plants depends …

Abiotic stresses, such as those induced by climatic factors or contaminants, and biotic
stresses prompted by phytopathogens and pests inflict tremendous losses in agriculture and …

Citrus are mainly grown in low pH soils with high active aluminum (Al).'Xuegan'(Citrus
sinensis (L.) Osbeck) and 'Shatian pummelo'(Citrus grandis (L.) Osbeck) seedlings were …

Aluminum (Al) is the third most abundant metal in earth crust, whose chemical form is mainly
dependent on soil pH. The most toxic form of Al with respect to plants is Al3+, which exists in …

Aluminum (Al)-induced decrease in leaf hydration has been associated with low gas
exchange, especially stomatal conductance (gs). However, the mechanisms explaining …

Stomatal operation is crucial for optimising plant water and gas exchange and represents a
major trait conferring abiotic stress tolerance in plants. About 56% of agricultural land …

Rice is one of the main staple foods of 50% of the world's population. Aluminum (Al) toxicity
is affecting rice growth on acidic soils. We described positive and toxic effects of aluminum …

Phytotoxic effects of a single heavy metal on different crops are widely reported; however,
consequences of combined metal toxicity on maize are rarely investigated. In this study, a …

The phytotoxic aluminum species (Al 3+) is considered as the primary factor limiting crop
productivity in over 40% of world's arable land that is acidic. We evaluated the responses of …

Lower concentrations of nanoparticles (NPs) could have positive effects on plants. In the
present experiment, we tested the efficacy of seed priming Egyptian roselle cultivar with …
