We concentrated on elucidating the potential of the most widely grown aquatic model plant, Eichhornia crassipes, to remove lead (Pb), one of the most dangerous environmental pollutants. Plant biomass content as well as various morpho-physiological parameters, such as leaf area, relative water content, proline level, and relative growth rates, was d...

The deficiency of oxygen in water during submergence is one of the frequently perceived environmental factors that limits or hampers production of the rice cultivation. Rice plants comprise of elongated submerged tissues that help to bear with the rise of water level in natural location. This characteristic helps the plant to deal with flooding str...

Excess toxicity due to oxygen deficiency during natural submergence or flash flooding poses a potential hazard. Oxygen is essential of being alive for all the aerobic organisms. On the other hand, though the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) can affect both positive and negative roles, or that the ROS acts as an oxidative molecule, yet it...

The growth of scientific studies involving plants towards matching with the ever increasing demands of development is indispensible, at which our efforts on research are aimed in line with the requirement. The interdisciplinary field that generates discussion and research between environment and plant science including human-focused themes is highl...

In natural environment, plants consist of both metabolic and tolerant mechanisms in toxic non-essential metals like Arsenic, Cadmium, Lead and Mercury. Natural activities composed of mining and smelting operations, including some haphazard practices in agriculture, have extensively contaminated some areas around the world—as for instances, in India...

Rhizobacteria are root-colonizing, non-pathogenic, and their association with the roots of plant improves productivity and tolerance of abiotic stress such as heavy metal toxicity. Inoculation against biotic stresses also increases tolerance against heavy metal toxicity. Rhizobacteria might also increase nutrient uptake from soils that prevents the...

Alterations in physiological and biochemical responses under arsenic (As) phytotoxicity were investigated in aquatic model plant, Spirodela polyrhiza L. Decrease in dry matter and total chlorophyll was observed in this plant under treatment at increasing concentrations. Similar decrease in protein and carotenoid contents was also recorded compared...
