UV-B Radiations and Secondary Metabolites

Turkish Journal of Agriculture: Food Science and Technology, 2020
Ultraviolet-B (UV-B: 280 to 320 nm) radiations have appeared to be detrimental to plants, due to their damaging effects on proteins, lipids, membranes and DNA. UV-B radiations are a significant regulator of plants’ secondary metabolites.

Functional aspects of plant secondary metabolites in metal stress tolerance and their importance in pharmacology

Plant Stress, 2021
Toxic trace metals are ecotoxic due to their high bioaccumulation and toxicity, acting as abiotic stress agents, causing oxidative damage to the plant cells. Plants can recognize these threat signals and activate various defense responses.
