Global climate variations induce extreme temperatures and significantly decrease crop production, leading to food insecurity worldwide. Temperature extremes (mainly cold stress (CS): chilling 0–15 °C freezing <0 temperatures) limit plant growth development severely affect physiology biochemical molecular processes. Subsequently, plants execute numerous endogenous mechanisms, including phytohormone biosynthesis (i.e., abscisic acid, cytokinins, jasmonic salicylic gibberellic brassinosteroids,...
Abstract Salinity and drought stress substantially decrease crop yield superiority, directly threatening the food supply needed to meet rising needs of growing total population. Nanotechnology is a step towards improving agricultural output tolerance by efficacy inputs in agriculture via targeted delivery, controlled release, enhanced solubility adhesion while also reducing significant damage. The direct application nanoparticles (NPs)/nanomaterials can boost performance effectiveness...
Abstract The adverse effects of mounting environmental challenges, including extreme temperatures, threaten the global food supply due to their impact on plant growth and productivity. Temperature extremes disrupt genetics, leading significant issues eventually damaging phenotypes. Plants have developed complex signaling networks respond tolerate temperature stimuli, genetic, physiological, biochemical, molecular adaptations. In recent decades, omics tools other strategies rapidly advanced,...
Cadmium (Cd) is highly toxic for plant metabolic processes even in low concentration due to higher retention rates, longer half-life and non-biodegradable nature. The current study was designed assess the bioremediation potential of Cd tolerant PGPR, Serratia sp. CP-13 together with two differentially maize cultivars (MMRI-Yellow, Sahiwal-2002) selected amongst ten after screening. were grown under different treatments (0, 6, 12, 18, 24, 30 µM) Petri plates both without inoculation. Treated...
Elevated CO2 (eCO2 ) is one of the climate changes that may benefit plant growth under emerging soil contaminants such as heavy metals. In this regard, morpho-physiological mechanisms underlying mitigating impact eCO2 on beryllium (Be) phytotoxicity are poorly known. Hence, we investigated and Be interactive effects metabolism two species from different groups: cereal (oat) legume (alfalfa). stress significantly reduced photosynthetic attributes in both species, but alfalfa was more...
Abstract Nickel (Ni) stress adversely affects plant growth and biomass accumulation, posturing severe menace to crop production food security. The current study aimed determine the putative role of sodium nitroprusside (SNP) in mitigating Ni‐induced phytotoxicity identify underlying defense mechanisms maize, which are poorly understood. Our findings showed that SNP significantly augmented growth, biomass, photosynthesis‐related attributes (Fv/Fm, Fm, qP ETR, ΦPSII) through diminishing Ni...
Heavy metals contamination of soil is increasing rapidly due to prompt in urbanization and industrialization. Recently, cadmium (Cd) pollution has emerged as a severe menace plant human health, while the use growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) appeared an economical approach for bioremediation Cd toxicity crop plants. In this study, effect Serratia sp. CP-13 inoculation on two maize cultivars pre-Cd (0, 5, 12, 18, 26, 30 µM) spiked was evaluated. The combined application assessed through...
