Amelioration of Cadmium Stress in Crop Plants by Nutrient Management: Morphological, Physiological and Biochemical Aspects
Plants are sessile organisms therefore, cannot avoid adverse environmental conditions (such as soil salinity, drought, heat, cold, flooding and heavy metal contamination). These stress factors are a menace for plants, prevent them from reaching their full genetic potential and limit crop productivity worldwide. Soil contamination with heavy metals has become a world wide problem leading to loss...
متن کاملMorphological and Physiological Responses of Strawberry Plants to Water Stress
Th e most of previous studies have been focused on the eff ect of water stress on plant yielding. However, the conditions in which plants grow from the moment of planting might aff ect their morphology and physiological response. Th e aim of this study was to examine the eff ect of water defi ciency on growth and plant physiological response of strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa Duch. cv. ‘Salut’)...
متن کاملFlooding Stress on Plants: Anatomical, Morphological and Physiological Responses
Flooding is a natural disturbance affecting crop and forage production worldwide due to the detrimental effects that it provokes on most terrestrial plants (Bailey-Serres & Voesenek, 2008; Colmer & Vosenek, 2009). Over the last years, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (http://www.ippc.ch) has informed that man-induced world climate change will increase the frequency of precipitation...
متن کاملPhytotoxic and genotoxic effects of ZnO nanoparticles on garlic (Allium sativum L.): a morphological study.
The effects of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) on the root growth, root apical meristem mitosis and mitotic aberrations of garlic (Allium sativum L.) were investigated. ZnO NPs caused a concentration-dependent inhibition of root length. When treated with 50 mg/L ZnO NPs for 24 h, the root growth of garlic was completely blocked. The 50% inhibitory concentration (IC(50)) was estimated to be 1...
متن کاملMorphological and physiological interactions of NG2-glia with astrocytes and neurons.
Models of central nervous system (CNS) function have historically been based on neurons and their synaptic contacts - the neuronal doctrine. This doctrine envisages glia as passive supportive cells. However, electrophysiological and imaging studies in brain slices show us that astrocytes, the most numerous cells in the brain, express a wide range of neurotransmitter receptors that are activated...
