TL;DR: The Wan Dan 13 was better able to alleviate Cd-induced oxidative damage which was attributed to more Cd accumulation in roots and higher antioxidant activities in this cultivar, suggesting that manipulation of these antioxidants and enhancing Cd collection in roots may lead to improvement in Cd stress tolerance.

TL;DR: The potential causes of compaction and its consequences that have been published in last two decades are reviewed and various morphological and physiological alterations in plant as result of soil compaction have been discussed.

TL;DR: Among cultivars, Dong Dan 80 was better able to negate the heavy metal-induced oxidative damage, which was associated with higher antioxidant activities, greater osmolytes accumulation, and lower ROS production in this cultivar.

TL;DR: Integrated management approaches such as addition of aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG), the film antitranspirant (di-1-p-menthene and pinolene) nutrients, hydrogels, and phytohormones may provide novel approaches to improve plant tolerance against abiotic stress-induced damage.

TL;DR: The role of exogenously applied MeJA in improving the drought tolerance of wheat by maintaining growth and yield performance of plants is suggested.
