Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleRoot Elongation, Root Surface Area and Organic Acid by Rice Seedling Under Al3+ and/or H+ StressA. Elisa Azura, J. Shamshuddin, C.I. FauziahProblem statement: Under acidic condition, Al3+ is the most common species in solution. An experiment was conducted to study the effects of Al and/or pH on rice seed germination, root morphology and organic acids release. This study was conducted at ambient temperature in Malaysia. Approach: Two experiments were conducted: (1) Rice seeds undergoing germination were exposed to 0.5 mM CaCl2 … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 4 Aug 2011 · 9,521 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDifferences in the Response of Diploid and Tetraploid Anthurium andraeanum Seedling Roots to Salt StressYun Zhang, Yongping Zhang, Yongxu Qiao et al.To investigate the effects of salt stress on the growth, development, and endogenous hormone content of roots in diploid and tetraploid seedlings of Anthurium andraeanum, the enhanced salt tolerance was elucidated. The seedlings of A. andraeanum 'Pink champion' were placed at NaCl concentrations of 0, 50, 100, 150, and 200 mmol·L⁻¹. The results indicated that NaCl stress can reduce leaf … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 29 Jan 2026 · 1,776 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLead Phytotoxicity Induced Changes in Biochemical Markers in Germination and Seedlings in Durum Wheat Triticum durum Desf. Cv.Vitron and GtaSoraya Slimani, Mokhtar Boudelaa, Saddek Abdelmadjid et al.Among the heavy metals most commonly found on land, lead is a strongly represented pollutant in soil and sediments. It is easily absorbed and accumulated in different parts of plants. On the macroscopic scale, lead causes unfavorable effects on plants. First and in the event of excess, it may exert toxicity affecting several stages of germination development in leaf formation … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 6 Sep 2017 · 7,480 accessesView PDF Cite
