Nanoparticles: The Plant Saviour under Abiotic Stresses
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Climate change significantly affects plant growth and productivity by causing different biotic and abiotic stresses to plants. Among the different abiotic stresses, at the top of the list are salinity, drought, temperature ...
Effect of Water Stress (Drought and Waterlogging) on Medicinal Plants
(
Springer Nature
, 2023 , Book chapter)
Climate change causes different biotic and abiotic stresses to the plants, water stress being one of them. Water stress includes water-logging (flooding) and water deficit (drought). These stresses restrict the plant’s ...
Reduced fertigation input sustains yield and physiological performance for improved economic returns and cleaner production of greenhouse eggplant
(
Elsevier
, 2024 , Article)
Greenhouse horticulture, a sustainable alternative to conventional horticulture, maximises resource use and return for vegetable production. This study evaluated the impact of varying nutrient solution electrical conductivity ...
Genotype x Environment x Management (GEM) Reciprocity and Crop Productivity
(
Frontiers Media SA
, 2022 , Article)
Human population growth requires food production to increase at a matching pace. Crop productivity largely depends on GEM reciprocity and variation in any factor may potentially alter the overall response. Introduction of ...
Unveiling the resilience mechanism: Strigolactones as master regulators of plant responses to abiotic stresses
(
Elsevier
, 2024 , Article)
Strigolactones (SLs) are an emerging class of plant hormones that play important roles in plant growth, development, and response to environmental stresses. This review summarizes recent findings on the roles of SLs in ...
Bioethanol Production from Waste and Nonsalable Date Palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) Fruits: Potentials and Challenges
(
Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI)
, 2023 , Article)
Balancing the needs of current and future generations stimulates investment for sustainable development such as converting waste biomass into biorenewables. Sugar-based ethanol production is a well-investigated and established ...
Physiological and Yield Performance Is Partially Linked to Water Use Efficiency of Eggplant Genotypes in a High-Tech Glasshouse
(
Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI)
, 2022 , Article)
Eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) has become an increasingly common vegetable grown in glasshouses. This study emphasized on the physiological traits and productivity of three eggplant cultivars (Longa, Lydia, and Tracey) ...
Alleviation of drought and salt stress in vegetables: crop responses and mitigation strategies
(
Springer Science and Business Media B.V.
, 2023 , Article)
In recent decades, the demand for vegetables has increased significantly due to the blooming global population. Climate change has affected vegetable production by increasing the frequencies and severity of abiotic and ...
The effect of type and combination of fertilizers on eukaryotic microbiome of date palm rhizosphere
(
Springer Nature
, 2024 , Article)
The date palm (Phoenix dactylifera) is an important cultivated crop in arid areas. Here, we studied the effect of plant genotype and type of fertilizers on the eukaryotic community structures of the date palm rhizosphere. ...
Seed priming alleviates salt stress in two fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum l.) Cultivars
(
United Arab Emirates University
, 2022 , Article)
Salinity is globally considered a widespread problem of the irrigated soils in arid and semi-arid areas. To minimize the negative effect of salinity seed priming technique is proved as a useful by improve germination and ...
