TL;DR: An overview of the structure, localization, biosynthesis, and significance of GSH and GR significance in abiotic stress (such as salinity, drought, clilling, heavy metal)-exposed crop plants is presented and also points out unexplored aspects in the current context for future studies.

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of recent studies on the modulation of total reduced GSH, GSH/GSSG redox couple, the major GSH-related enzymes and their cumulative significance in plants' adaptation and/or tolerance to TMs and metalloids in detail is presented.

TL;DR: Under the experimental conditions used, the materials reported here displayed high efficiency for Hg(2+) uptake (74%) even at contaminant levels as low as 50 μg l(-1), therefore these eco-nanomagnets show great potential for the removal of heavy metal ions of polluted water, via magnetic separation.

TL;DR: The outcome of the recent literature appraised herein will help to understand the physiological and molecular bases of mechanisms underlying P. indica-crop plant mutual relationship in both achieving new insights into crop protection/improvement as well as in sustainable agriculture production.

TL;DR: ROS is introduced and their relationship with abiotic stress-caused consequences in crop plants is highlighted, and the various physiological/biochemical aspects of oxidative damage to lipids and proteins in stressed crop plants are examined.
