Results show JA alone combination with salt stress altered growth metabolism both soybeans. For instance, they accumulated significant amounts Na+...
Background Increasing soil salinization has a detrimental effect on agricultural productivity.Therefore, strategies are needed to induce salinity-tolerance in crop species for sustainable foodproduction. γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) plays key role regulating plant salinity stresstolerance. However, it remains largely unknown how mungbean plants (Vigna radiata L.) respondto exogenous GABA under stress. Methods Thus, we evaluated the of (1.5 mM) growth and physiobiochemicalresponse mechanism...
Abstract Background Nitrogen (N) availability is crucial in regulating plants’ abiotic stress resistance, particularly at the seedling stage. Nevertheless, plant responses to N under salinity conditions may vary depending on soil’s NH 4 + NO 3 − ratio. Methods In this study, we investigated effects of different :NO ratios (100/0, 0/100, 25/75, 50/50, and 75/25) growth physio-biochemical soybean seedlings grown controlled saline (0-, 50-, 100-mM L 1 NaCl Na 2 SO , a 1:1 molar ratio). Results...
A high amount of CO 2 causes numerous health effects, including headaches, restlessness, difficulty in breathing, increased heart rate, blood pressure, asphyxia, and dizziness. This issue increasing atmospheric can only be solved via above-ground below-ground carbon sequestration (CS). study was designed to determine the relationship between CS with crown area (CA), diameter at breast height (DBH), (H), species richness (SR), elevation different forest types Pakistan following specific...
We investigated biochar-induced drought tolerance in
The application of germination models in economic crop management makes them extremely useful for predicting seed germination. Hence, we examined the effect varying water potentials (Ψs; 0. - 0.3, 0.6, 0.9, 1.2 MPa) and temperatures (Ts; 20, 25, 30, 35, 40 °C) on maize enzymatic antioxidant mechanism. We observed that Ts Ψs significantly influenced percentage (GP) rate (GR), other parameters, including index (GRI), (GI), mean (MGI), time (MGT), coefficient velocity (CVG), energy (GE) (p ≤...
Perennial trees are often stressed by drought more than once during their life cycle. Our study exposed three-month-old Alhagisparsifolia, with (drought-primed) or without (nonprimed) prior stress to subsequent for two months, aiming reveal whether pre-exposure could enhance seedling resistance and investigated possible underlying mechanisms. Root biomass, leaf relative water content, chlorophyll a, carotenoids were significantly higher in drought-primed nonprimed seedlings. They also had...
