Expeditious industrial development has prompted the upraised production and release of
colossal amounts of various heavy metals (HMs) and metalloids in the environment. Heavy …

Background This study assessed the effects of 24-epibrassinolide (EBL, 10–7 M) and silicon
(2 mM) on the alleviation of cadmium (Cd, 150 mg L–1) toxicity in Pisum sativum L …

Metalloid contamination in the environment is one of the serious concerns posing threat to
our ecosystems. Excess of metalloid concentrations (including antimony, arsenic, boron …

Low-temperature stress is a type of abiotic stress that limits plant growth and production in
both subtropical and tropical climate conditions. In the current study, the effects of 24-epi …

Simple Summary Drought stress is one of the most serious abiotic stresses and negatively
affects crop growth and development. Given global climate change, it is important to identify …

Water deficit is the most limiting abiotic stress to plants because it affects several
physiological and biochemical processes. Brassinosteroids, including 24‐epibrassinolide …

High-temperature stress is widely considered a main plant-growth-limiting factor. The
positive effects of 24-epibrassinolide (EBR) as analogs of brassinosteroids (BRs) in …

Cadmium (Cd) is an extremely toxic heavy metal (HM) that poses significant threats to the
growth and development of horticultural plants. The accumulation of Cd in plants can occur …

Brassinosteroids (BR) are steroid-plant hormones that promote plant development and can
trigger specific responses against adverse environmental conditions. That is why these …

Increasing the productivity, yield and quality and modulating the ripening physiology of the
fruit is considered as a main concern for the fruit growers. Brassinosteroids (BRs), as natural …
