The Effect of Corporate Governance Elements on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Disclosure: An Empirical Evidence from Listed Companies at KSE Pakistan
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the potential effects of corporate governance (CG) elements on corporate social responsibility (CSR) disclosure and found that overall CSR reporting by Pakistani companies are rather moderate however, the assortments of CSR items are really impressive.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sulfate-mediated Drought Tolerance in Maize Involves Regulation at Physiological and Biochemical Levels
Muhammad Munir Usmani,Fahim Nawaz,Sadia Majeed,Muhammad Asif Shehzad,Khawaja Shafique Ahmad,Gulzar Akhtar,Muhammad Aqib,Rana Nauman Shabbir +7 more
TL;DR: A marked effect of S fertilization was observed on biomass accumulation and nutrients uptake in maize, and the optimized doses significantly increased the gas exchange characteristics and activity of antioxidant enzymes to improve yield of maize.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nitric oxide regulates water status and associated enzymatic pathways to inhibit nutrients imbalance in maize (Zea mays L.) under drought stress.
Sadia Majeed,Fahim Nawaz,Fahim Nawaz,Muhammad Naeem,Muhammad Ashraf,Samina Ejaz,Khawaja Shafique Ahmad,Saba Tauseef,Ghulam Farid,Iqra Khalid,Kinza Mehmood +10 more
TL;DR: The results showed that the foliar spray of NO regulated water relations by increasing proline content and improved drought tolerance in water stressed maize plants, and stimulated the activity of antioxidative enzymes which reduced the production of free radicals and lipid peroxidation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of exogenous nitric oxide on sulfur and nitrate assimilation pathway enzymes in maize ( Zea mays L.) under drought stress
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of foliar applied nitric oxide (as SNP [sodium nitroprusside]) on sulfur (glutathione reductase, guaiacol peroxidase, and glutathione S-transferase) pathway enzymes in maize (Zea mays L.) exposed to water deficit conditions were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Maize accumulates more Pb in roots than shoot at early growth stages and priming of seeds with KNO3 prevents Pb toxicity, which may be exploited to improve seedling establishment in crop species grown under Pb contaminated soils.
