Oxidative stress, antioxidants and stress tolerance
Trends in Plant Science, 2002Traditionally, reactive oxygen intermediates (ROIs) were considered to be toxic by-products of aerobic metabolism, which were disposed of using antioxidants. However, in recent years, it has become apparent that plants actively produce ROIs as signaling molecules to control processes such as programmed cell death, abiotic stress responses, pathogen ...

Stress-tolerant P-solubilizing microorganisms
Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2012Drought, high/low temperature, and salinity are abiotic stress factors accepted as the main reason for crop yield losses in a world with growing population and food price increases. Additional problems create nutrient limitations and particularly low P soil status.

Cadmium-tolerant bacteria induce metal stress tolerance in cereals
Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2014Cadmium usually hampers plant growth, but bacterial inoculation may improve stress tolerance in plants to Cd by involving various mechanisms. The objective was to characterize and identify bacteria that improve plant growth under Cd stress and reduce Cd uptake.

Stress Tolerance of Ecosystems
Environmental Conservation, 1976It is conventionally argued that a stable ecosystem, namely one with high species-diversity and high constancy in physical parameters, is less sensitive to additional stress than a system with varying physical parameters and low species-diversity. By this logic, the Baltic would be more susceptible to additional stress, such as that of pollution, than ...

Enhancing Abiotic Stress Tolerance
2016The banana is one of the most important staple fruit crop which feed millions of people around the globe. In the era of climate change, banana cultivation and production is seriously hampered by different biotic and abiotic constraints. Abiotic stresses arise from adverse environmental conditions which can hinder yield stability every cropping season ...

Glyoxalases and stress tolerance in plants
Biochemical Society Transactions, 2014The glyoxalase pathway is required for detoxification of cytotoxic metabolite MG (methylglyoxal) that would otherwise increase to lethal concentrations under adverse environmental conditions. Since its discovery 100 years ago, several roles have been assigned to glyoxalases, but, in plants, their involvement in stress response and tolerance is the most

Breeding for Abiotic Stress Tolerance
1994The combined effect of all abiotic stress factors is worldwide seen enormous and the deterioration of many soils due to poor farm management is aggravating this. Especially stress factors that reduce and retard growth and development (drought, salinity, acidity, frost, heat, water logging, iron shortage etc.) are very important.
