Phytohormones participate in many aspects of the plant life cycle, including responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. They play a key role in plant responses to the environment with direct bearing on a plant?s fitness for ...

The functional analysis of phytohormone production, interaction, and regulation in higher plants has re-emerged in the past 10 years due to spectacular advances in integrative study models. However, plants are not axenic ...

Beans are one of the most important crops in Brazil but still have a low yield. The use of technologies such as the application of biostimulants can provide greater yield for the crop. Thus, the work aimed to evaluate the ...

Grafting has been a long-standing technique used to improve crop production and provide tolerance to biotic stresses, including soil-borne pathogens, as well as tolerance to abiotic stresses, such as cold, salinity, drought, ...

In this study, the profile of plant phytohormones traditionally considered as plant growth promoters (GA1, GA3, GA4, IAA and Z) was determined in roots and leaves of the halophyte Prosopis strombulifera grown hydroponically ...

Arsenic (As) is naturally present in soils and groundwater in agricultural areas, mainly in the form of arsenate (AsV) and arsenite (AsIII). It can enter soybean plants and decrease their yield and growth, therefore posing ...

The phytohormones are pivotal chemical messengers produced within the plant that regulate its growth and development, and responses to environmental stimuli. Drought and salinity are adverse environmental factors that ...

Chitosan has been termed as the most well-known of these biopolymers, receiving widespread attention from researchers in various fields mainly, food, health, and agriculture. It is a deacetylated derivative of chitin, ...
