Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Chemical and mechanical defences of a metal‐hyperaccumulating plant species Arabidopsis halleri were more influenced by plant accession (genetic background) and insect herbivory by a leaf beetle Phaedon cochleariae than by supplementation of the metalloid silicon.

Selection of suitable additives for seed pelletizing to enhance germination and growth of Onobrychis viciifolia in restoration of semi‐arid degraded rangelands

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Despite direct seeding, seed pelletizing with useful materials is one of the effective methods to improve plant growth. This experiment assessed the impacts of different additives used in seed pelletizing on germination and growth of Onobrychis viciifolia at a degraded semi‐arid rangeland.
