Journal ArticleDOI
Endophytic fungi produce gibberellins and indoleacetic acid and promotes host-plant growth during stress.
Muhammad Waqas,Abdul Latif Khan,Muhammad Kamran,Muhammad Hamayun,Sang-Mo Kang,Yoon Ha Kim,In-Jung Lee +6 more
TL;DR: Two endophytes significantly reprogrammed the growth of host plants during stress conditions and mitigated stress by compromising the activities of reduced glutathione, catalase, peroxidase and polyphenol oxidase.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria reduce adverse effects of salinity and osmotic stress by regulating phytohormones and antioxidants in Cucumis sativus
Sang-Mo Kang,Abdul Latif Khan,Muhammad Waqas,Young-Hyun You,Jin-Ho Kim,Jong-Guk Kim,Muhammad Hamayun,In-Jung Lee +7 more
TL;DR: The PGPR application might be used in marginalized agricultural lands to increase crop productivity because of its ameliorative effects on biomass and chlorophyll contents under salinity and drought stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bacterial endophyte Sphingomonas sp. LK11 produces gibberellins and IAA and promotes tomato plant growth
Abdul Latif Khan,Muhammad Waqas,Sang-Mo Kang,Ahmed Al-Harrasi,Javid Hussain,Ahmed Al-Rawahi,Salima Al-Khiziri,Ihsan Ullah,Liaqat Ali,Hee-Young Jung,In-Jung Lee +10 more
TL;DR: Tomato plants inoculated with endophytic Sphingomonas sp.
Journal ArticleDOI
Silicon Regulates Antioxidant Activities of Crop Plants under Abiotic-Induced Oxidative Stress: A Review
TL;DR: The exogenous application of Si has been found to induce stress tolerance by regulating the generation of ROS, reducing electrolytic leakage, and malondialdehyde (MDA) contents, and immobilizing and reducing the uptake of toxic ions like Na, under stressful conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Silicon mitigates heavy metal stress by regulating P-type heavy metal ATPases, Oryza sativa low silicon genes, and endogenous phytohormones.
Yoon Ha Kim,Abdul Latif Khan,Duk-Hwan Kim,Seung-Yeol Lee,Kyung-Min Kim,Muhammad Waqas,Hee-Young Jung,Jae-Ho Shin,Jong-Guk Kim,In-Jung Lee +9 more
TL;DR: The present study supports the active role of Si in the regulation of stresses from heavy metal exposure through changes in root morphology and shows a significant up-regulation of mRNA expression with Si treatment in rice plants.
