Potassium (K+) is an essential mineral macronutrient abundantly present in the cytosol which, unlike other macronutrients, is not metabolized and does not integrate into macromolecules. Compared to animal cells, K+ is more abundantly present in plant cells. Overall performance o…
Preface -- 1. Heavy metals -- definition and nanoparticle uptake in plants -- 2. Cellular and molecular responses of plant cell against heavy metal toxicity -- 3. Effect of heavy metal stress on growth and yields of crop plants -- 4. Heavy metal induced toxicity responses in pla…
Plant growth and development is closely dependent on the plant environment, including the wide-spread presence of organic and inorganic xenobiotics and pollutants. Currently, heavy metals are the most common inorganic environmental pollutants and they have pronounced effects and…
Widely known as the 'tree of life, coconut (Cocos nucifera L.) provides a bountiful source for making a wide variety of healthy foods and industrial items. Its cultivation, however, has been encountering seriously destructive issues including lethal diseases and natural adversit…
