Silicon Seed Priming Mitigates Drought-Induced Effects on Growth, Water Status, and Photosystem Activity in Maize [PDF]
PlantsWater deficit is a major abiotic constraint limiting maize growth and productivity worldwide. Although silicon (Si) is not classified as an essential element, its beneficial effects on numerous crop species are well documented.

Genetic Variation in Responses to Salt Stress in Tunisian Populations of Medicago ciliaris
Agronomy, 2022 Soil salinity is one of the most serious environmental factors affecting crop productivity around the world. We used a morpho-physiological approach to investigate the salt responses of four Tunisian natural populations of Medicago ciliaris.

Amylomaltases in Extremophilic Microorganisms [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2021 Amylomaltases (4-α-glucanotransferases, E.C. 2.4.1.25) are enzymes which can perform a double-step catalytic process, resulting in a transglycosylation reaction. They hydrolyse glucosidic bonds of α-1,4′-d-glucans and transfer the glucan portion with the newly available anomeric carbon to the 4′-position of an α-1,4′-d-glucan acceptor.
