Role of plant secondary metabolites in defence and transcriptional regulation in response to biotic stress

Anjali, Sumit Kumar, Tulasi Korra et al. · 3 Apr 2023

Secondary metabolites in plants have been recognized as a novel basis of potential bio-pesticides, paving the way for their use in sustainable agriculture. Plant secondary metabolites have pivotal roles in plant-pathogen interactions. Some important secondary metabolites of plants are terpenoids, flavanols, flavones, etc., are stress-inducible phytochemicals playing an important role in plant immune response development.…

Iron homeostasis in plants and its crosstalk with copper, zinc, and manganese

Snigdha Rai, Prashant Kumar Singh, Samriti Mankotia et al. · 1 Jan 2021

Micronutrients like copper (Cu), manganese (Mn), Iron (Fe), and Zinc (Zn) are essential for plants, and their functions are tightly linked for vital metabolism. The normal concentration range for each of these metals in the plant is narrow, with both deficiencies and excesses causing severe physiological implications. Maintaining an optimum level of these redox-active metals…

Impact of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) on plant nutrition and root characteristics: Current perspective

Muneer Ahmed Khoso, Sindho Wagan, Intikhab Álam et al. · 28 Dec 2023

Through a variety of mechanisms, including increasing the amount of readily available mineral nutrients, regulating phytohormone levels, and biocontrol of phytopathogens, plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) associated with the plant rhizosphere either directly or indirectly stimulates plant growth and development. The establishment, survival, and persistence of PGPR inoculants are widely acknowledged to be contingent upon these…

Soil salinity and drought tolerance: An evaluation of plant growth, productivity, microbial diversity, and amelioration strategies

Murad Muhammad, Abdul Waheed, Abdul Wahab et al. · 9 Dec 2023

Global climate change affects weather patterns, affecting soil salinity and drought tolerance. Crop resilience and agriculture sustainability can be enhanced by exploring soil salinity, plant drought tolerance, microbial diversity, and remediation techniques. This review examines the morpho-physiological, molecular, and genetic mechanisms underlying plant adaptation to soil salinity and drought stress. It highlights their impact on…

Crosstalk of nanoparticles and phytohormones regulate plant growth and metabolism under abiotic and biotic stress

Deepika Tripathi, Mithilesh Singh, Shashi Pandey‐Rai · 27 Jul 2022

In the era of climate change, plants are facing various and unprecedented environmental stresses. Both biotic and abiotic stress factors are very important constraints that adversely affect the plants’ developmental and metabolic processes. In order to cope with the environmental challenges, plants have evolved a variety of defense mechanisms at various levels by modifying their…

Plant Stress template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Plant Stress format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Plant Stress template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Elsevier format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
