Journal ArticleDOI

Drought Induced Changes in Growth, Osmolyte Accumulation and Antioxidant Metabolism of Three Maize Hybrids.

Shakeel Ahmad Anjum, +10 more
- 06 Feb 2017 - 
TL;DR: Drought-induced osmolyte accumulation and strong enzymatic and non-enzymatic defense systems prevented the severe damage in Dong Dan 80; nevertheless, negative effects of drought stress were more prominent in Run Nong 35.
Journal ArticleDOI

New Insights into 5hmC DNA Modification: Generation, Distribution and Function.

Dong-Qiao Shi, +3 more
- 19 Jul 2017 - 
TL;DR: Recent advances on the generation, distribution, and function of 5hmC modification in mammals are reviewed and its potential roles in plants are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Seed priming by sodium nitroprusside improves salt tolerance in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) by enhancing physiological and biochemical parameters.

Qasim Ali, +11 more
- 01 Oct 2017 - 
TL;DR: Investigation of exogenous fertigation by sodium nitroprusside to induce salt tolerance in four high yielding wheat cultivars indicated that SNP-priming induced salt tolerance by up-regulating the antioxidative defense mechanisms resulting in better biomass production and grain yield.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lithium toxicity in plants: Reasons, mechanisms and remediation possibilities - A review.

Babar Shahzad, +7 more
- 01 Oct 2016 - 
TL;DR: Issues around Li, its role and its essentiality in plants and research directions that may assist in inter-disciplinary studies to evaluate the importance of Li's toxicity are discussed.
Book ChapterDOI

Advances in the Concept and Methods of Seed Priming

Muhammad Waqas, +6 more
TL;DR: The primed seeds show faster and uniform seed germination due to different enzyme activation, metabolic activities, biochemical process of cell repair, protein synthesis, and improvement of the antioxidant defense system as compared to unprimed seeds.
