A manifesto for plant science education

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 422-432, March 2026.
Plants provide oxygen, food, shelter, medicines and environmental services, without which human society could not exist. Tackling pressing and global challenges requires well‐trained plant scientists and plant‐aware individuals. This manifesto provides a practical evidence‐based vision to strengthen plant science education, focussed on five strategic ...

Rhizosphere microbial detoxification and phosphorus solubilization drive ecological remediation of Pb–Zn contaminated soils

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 639-653, March 2026.
Heavy metal contamination of soils poses a serious threat to ecosystem health and food security worldwide. This study investigated how native plants, such as Artemisia annua and Buddleja davidii, interact with soil microbes in Pb–Zn waste slag areas. We found that these plants stimulate microbes, which improve phosphorus availability and reduce metal ...

Novel applications of the tomato microbiome: Roles and considerations for agriculture, human health, and society

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 530-555, March 2026.
Plants, like humans, have a microbiome that helps them grow, defend themselves against pathogens, acquire nutrients, and protect themselves against environmental stresses. The microbiome of tomatoes, a staple crop grown worldwide, could be utilized not only to reduce fertilizer and pesticide applications, but also to clean up harmful pollutants ...

Review of Amino Acid Foliar Application as a Stress Mitigation Strategy: Unraveling the Protective Mechanisms Against Abiotic Stress

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The foliar application of amino acids offers a promising strategy to mitigate multiple abiotic stresses—drought, salinity, heat and heavy metals—by enhancing plant physiological, biochemical and molecular responses. This review synthesises recent advances in understanding how external amino acids function as bio‐stimulants, focusing on ...

Comparison of Uptake of Cadmium at Low Concentrations Under Hydroponic and Soil‐Based Agriculture Systems for Lettuce, Indian Spinach and Methi

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Using recycled water for agriculture offers a sustainable approach by adding inherent nutrients and moisture to the soil. However, it contains unwanted contaminants such as heavy metals like cadmium at lower concentrations. This study assessed the comparative response of three leafy crops ‐ lettuce, Indian spinach and methi, against cadmium ...

Synergistic interactions of assorted ameliorating agents to enhance the potential of heavy metal phytoremediation

Stress Biology
Pollution by toxic heavy metals creates a significant impact on the biotic community of the ecosystem. Nowadays, a solution to this problem is an eco-friendly approach like phytoremediation, in which plants are used to ameliorate heavy metals.
