TL;DR: In this paper, an attempt has been made to critically review the global usage of different pesticides and their major adverse impacts on ecosystem, which will provide guidance for a wide range of researchers in this area.

TL;DR: The underlying mechanisms of phytohormone-regulated osmolyte accumulation along with their various functions in plants under stress conditions are discussed.

TL;DR: The present review describes how different abiotic stresses can pose deleterious impacts on plant photosynthesis machinery including cellular membranes, cell division and cell elongation, biosynthesis of photosynthetic pigments, as well as electron transport chain.

TL;DR: In this paper, the stress protective role of selenium (Se) against chromium toxicity in Brassica juncea L. has been investigated and shown that Se is able to protect the plants by restoring growth, reducing the oxidative damage (low levels of superoxide anions and hydrogen peroxide), and strengthened the enzymatic and nonenzymatic defence systems of B.juncea plants.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered the presence of both oxidized and reduced forms of electron carriers is mandatory in efficient flux by plant electron transport cascades, which is considered as redox poising that involves the movement of electron from multiple sites in respiratory and photosynthetic electron transport chains to molecular oxygen.
