Salicylic acid enhanced the chromium tolerance in pea (Pisum sativum) by mitigating the oxidative damage and gene expression

Silicon enhances salinity tolerance in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) through physiological, biochemical, and ionic regulation

Soil salinization poses a significant threat to agricultural production, necessitating innovative agronomic strategies to mitigate its impact. Salinity stress is a critical abiotic factor that hampers tomato growth by causing ionic imbalances, oxidative damage, and disruptions in physiological systems. This study inves...

Exogenous Salicylic Acid Supplementation Enhances Cadmium-Induced Oxidative Stress Tolerance by Regulating Nutrient Metabolism, Photosynthetic Traits, and Growth in Zinnia elegans

The exogenous application of salicylic acid and biochar to mitigate chromium stress in Salvia hispanica L.

Heavy metal contamination, particularly chromium (Cr) stress, poses a serious threat to agricultural productivity and food safety because of its toxic effects on plant growth and metabolism. This study investigated the individual and combined effects of salicylic acid (SA) and biochar in mitigating chromium-induced str...

Fulvic acid and hydrogen sulfide synergistically mitigate chromium stress in tobacco seedlings by regulating oxidative stress indicators and antioxidant defense mechanisms.

Exogenous nitrogen mitigation of cadmium stress in Pinellia ternata is associated with the regulation of arginine and proline metabolism

It is indicated that exogenous nitrogen is associated with improved Cd tolerance in P. ternata through coordinated regulation of Cd translocation, arginine and proline metabolism, antioxidant and transport-related processes, and rhizosphere-associated responses.

Physiological and transcriptional regulation of cadmium stress tolerance in ornamental pepper by silicon nanoparticles and melatonin.

Nanotechnology has been established as a promising approach to improve heavy metal stress tolerance in horticultural crops. Melatonin (MT) is an emerging biostimulant for inducing stress resistance in plants. In this study, we evaluated the individual and combined effects of silicon nanoparticles (SiNPs; 50 mg L-1) and...
