We investigated potential alleviation effects of homobrassinosteroid (HBR) hormone on sunflower (Helianthus annuus L. cv. TR003) grown under copper (Cu) stress conditions. Seeds were grown under Cu (30 µM and 40 µM) ...

Plants maintain their life cycles under the various environmental conditions such as oxidative stress induced by heavy metals. Accumulation of metal ions in plants causes the formation of free radicals and stimulates the ...

Heavy metals are considered to be the most important pollutants in the contamination of soils; they adversely affect plant growth and development and cause some physiological and molecular changes. The contamination of ...

Heavy metals are one of the abiotic stress factor for plants, they effect the plant life cycles binding to sulfhydryl groups in amino acids and proteins. The presence of heavy metal in plant tissues changes the plant’s ...

Heavy metals have restricted the plant regular life cycles affecting the plant primer and seconder metabolites by biochemical and physiological pathways. Phenolic compounds considered as products of metabolic alterations ...
