5-Aminolevulinic acid mitigates the chromium-induced changes in Helianthus annuus L. as revealed by plant defense system enhancement
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)Chromium (Cr) in the soil is one of the major pollutants for agricultural production. This study examined the efficiency of sunflower plants to remediate Cr-contaminated soils using a plant growth regulator, 5-aminolevolinic ... -
Abrin inactivating mitochondrial ribosome induced anther abortion in cotton CMS line LD6A by damaging mitochondrial membrane structure
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)Cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) system has extensively been exploited for hybrid vigor in plant breeding programs. However, its application in many crops is limited due to poor understanding of molecular mechanism of fertility ... -
Advances, limitations, and prospects of biosensing technology for detecting phytopathogenic bacteria
( Elsevier , 2022 , Article)Phytopathogenic bacteria cause severe economic losses in agricultural production worldwide. The spread rates, severity, and emerging plant bacterial diseases have become serious threat to the sustainability of food sources ... -
Antifungal activity of Zinc nitrate derived nano Zno fungicide synthesized from Trachyspermum ammi to control fruit rot disease of grapefruit
( Elsevier , 2022 , Article)Grapefruit (Citrus paradisi) is a widely grown citrus and its fruit is affected by a variety of biotic and abiotic stress. Keeping in view the hazardous effects of synthetic fungicides, the recent trend is shifting towards ... -
Changes in secondary metabolites contents and stress response in Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge via ScWRKY35 overexpression: insights from a Salvia castanea homolog
( Elsevier , 2024 , Article)Salvia castanea Diels, a close wild relative to the medicinal plant, Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge, primarily grows in high-altitude regions. While the two species share similar active compounds, their content varies significantly. ... -
Ecological impacts and potential hazards of nickel on soil microbes, plants, and human health
( Elsevier , 2024 , Article)Nickel (Ni) contamination poses a serious environmental concern, particularly in developing countries: where, anthropogenic activities significantly contributes to Ni accumulations in soils and waters. The contamination ... -
Ecological risks of microplastics contamination with green solutions and future perspectives
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)The rise of plasticulture as mulching material in farming systems has raised concerns about microplastics (MPs) in the agricultural landscape. MPs are emerging pollutants in croplands and water systems with significant ... -
Extraction and characterization of biofunctional lignocellulosic fibers from Pulicaria undulata plant and the effect of alkali treatment on their bio-physicochemical properties
( Elsevier , 2024 , Article)This study aimed to extract and characterize natural fibers from the P. undulata plant and to evaluate their antioxidant and antimicrobial activities, including the influence of alkali treatment on the bio-physicochemical ... -
Green synthesized zinc oxide nanoparticles for removal of carbamazepine in water and soil systems
( Elsevier , 2024 , Article)During the COVID-19 pandemic, there was a significant increase in pharmaceutical releases (4 %), which created a pressing global need for solutions. In this study, we explored the use of zinc oxide nanoparticles (GS-ZnONPs) ... -
Neonicotinoid insecticides in the environment: A critical review of their distribution, transport, fate, and toxic effects
( Elsevier , 2022 , Article)Neonicotinoid insecticides (NENIs) have become increasingly common in recent decades in the control of crop pests and other plant pathogens. It is undeniable that the practice improves crop yield and economic productivity ... -
Pre treatment of melatonin rescues cotton seedlings from cadmium toxicity by regulating key physio-biochemical and molecular pathways
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)Melatonin, a plant/animal origin hormone, regulates plant response to abiotic stresses by protecting them from oxidative damage. This study identified physiochemical and molecular mechanism of melatonin-induced cadmium ... -
Response of cauliflower (Brassica oleracea L.) to nitric oxide application under cadmium stress
( Elsevier , 2022 , Article)Soil contamination with cadmium (Cd) is a persistent threat to crop production worldwide. The present study examined the putative roles of nitric oxide (NO) in improving Cd-tolerance in cauliflower (Brassica oleracea L.). ... -
A robust field-based method to screen heat tolerance in wheat
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)Wheat is highly sensitive to heat shocks and their timing. Hence, field-based ranking for heat tolerance may be confounded by phenological variations at the time of heat events. A photoperiod-extension method (PEM) was ... -
Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) yield response to drip irrigation and nitrogen application rates in open-field cultivation in arid environments
