Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Climate Change on Sal (Shorea robusta Gaertn. f.) Forest of Kumaun HimalayaSanjay Kumar, Neha ChopraPhenophase of three common co-occuring woody plant species that varied in stature (tree Vs shrub) were examined in a sal forest of Kumaun Himalaya. The significance of phonological research lies in the fact that it constitutes a synthetic approach to evaluating plant response to the local environment. Monthly counts of leaves, flowers, fruits and shoot measurement were made on 150 … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 27 Mar 2018 · 8,609 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficiency of Nitrogen Fixation by Rhizobium Strains Associated With White Clover in the Ecuadorian Highlands Biological Nitrogen Fixation by White Clover in EcuadorDaniela Michell Chuquimarca Mamarandi, Venancio Saúl Arahana Bonilla, Paulina Andrea Cevallos Hidalgo et al.The objective of this research was to evaluate the nitrogen-fixing capacity of 30 strains of Rhizobium isolated from white clover nodules, collected in the provinces of Pichincha and Cotopaxi under greenhouse conditions. After isolation of the bacteria and authentication of the isolates, a greenhouse experiment was conducted, in a Completely Randomized Design (CRD), with three replications and two controls: with … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 4 · 4 Oct 2026 · 835 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStrigolactones in Plant Stress Adaptation: Mechanisms and Agricultural PotentialHumayra Ferdus, Mahabuba Mostafa, Md. Motaher HossainAbiotic stresses have significant negative effects on the growth, development, and productivity of crop plants, which are critical to global agricultural production and ecosystem stability. Strigolactones (SLs), a family of carotenoid-derived plant phytohormones, have been identified as playing key roles in plant development and adaptive responses to environmental stimuli. Initially recognized as signaling molecules in host-parasite interactions and as symbiotic … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 4 · 3 Oct 2026 · 559 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeed Treatment-Based Biocontrol of Tomato Damping off Using Plant Essential Oil and Green Silver NanoparticlesLaila Reklaoui, Zine El Abidine Bzazou Elouazzani, El Touhami Tayebi Ouazzani et al.The fungal pathogen Rhizoctonia solani is a major causal agent of damping-off in tomato plants, leading to severe yield losses worldwide. Conventional fungicides, while effective, raise concerns regarding environmental safety and human health, highlighting the urgent need for sustainable alternatives. In this study, we report for the first time the use of Origanum compactum essential oil to biosynthesize silver nanoparticles … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 2 · 2 Jun 2026 · 1,298 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCadmium Stress Responses in Medicinal and Oilseed Plants: Safflower as a Promising Candidate for Soil Cadmium RemediationChristos Kikis, Giorgos Thalassinos, Vasileios AntoniadisThis study investigated the growth responses of five economically important plants—chamomile (Matricaria recutita), oregano (Origanum vulgare), safflower (Carthamus tinctorius), sage (Salvia officinalis), and wormwood (Artemisia absinthium) exposed to increasing Cd levels. Over 60 days, plants were subjected to Cd concentrations of 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 mg per pot. Growth parameters and Cd accumulation were then assessed.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDifferential Response of Chitosan-Pretreated Rice Cultivars at the Seedling Stage to Drought Stress on Growth and Leaf MetabolitesWasinee Pongprayoon, Sataporn Deeying, Sakchai Hongthong et al.The escalating prevalence of drought stress presents a significant obstacle to global rice cultivation, particularly in arid regions affected by climate change-induced water scarcity. Despite extensive research on the efficacy of exogenously applied chitosan in enhancing drought tolerance across various crops, there remains a gap in understanding the differential responses of chitosan-treated rice seedlings among different cultivars and different chitosan … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 20 Dec 2024 · 5,246 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhancing Drought Resistance in Spring Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Through Chelated Zinc Seed Treatment: An Experimental StudyBekzak Amantayev, Gulden Kipshakbayeva, Arysgul Turbekova et al.Climate change-induced drought is a significant threat to global food security, particularly affecting wheat yields. Despite various strategies to enhance drought resistance in crops, the effectiveness of chelated Zinc (Zn) as a seed treatment agent remains underexplored, especially in the early stages of wheat ontogenesis. This study aims to fill this gap by evaluating the effectiveness of zinc as a … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 26 Sep 2024 · 4,414 accessesView PDFCite
