Bioaccumulation and physiological responses to lead (Pb) in Chenopodium murale L
(Academic Press, 2018)
Identification and screening of wild, wasteland plants for the remediation of heavy metal contaminated soils is a crucial phytotechnological approach. In a pot experiment, Chenopodium murale was tested for the phytoextraction ...
Patterns of plant communities along vertical gradient in Dhauladhar Mountains in Lesser Himalayas in North-Western India
(Elsevier B.V., 2020)
Mountains are definitely the most rugged, yet frail resources and biodiversity-rich regions of the world. Environmental variables directly affect species composition, growth patterns, and the ecosystem resulting in a drastic ...
Evaluating the role of phenology in managing urban invasions: A case study of Broussonetia papyrifera
(Elsevier GmbH, 2020)
Multidisciplinary approaches are required for the management of invasive woody species in urban areas. In this context, phenological studies are a useful tool to understand tree development and devise suitable management ...
Comparative cyto- and genotoxicity of 900 MHz and 1800 MHz electromagnetic field radiations in root meristems of Allium cepa
(Academic Press, 2020)
In the last few decades, tremendous increase in the use of wireless electronic gadgets, particularly the cell phones, has significantly enhanced the levels of electromagnetic field radiations (EMF-r) in the environment. ...
Appraisal of immediate and late effects of mobile phone radiations at 2100�MHz on mitotic activity and DNA integrity in root meristems of Allium cepa
(Springer-Verlag Wien, 2019)
The present study evaluated the potential of 2100�MHz radiofrequency radiations to act as cytotoxic and genotoxic agent. Fresh onion (Allium cepa L.) roots were exposed to electromagnetic field radiations (EMF-r) for ...
?-Pinene moderates Cr(VI) phytotoxicity by quenching reactive oxygen species and altering antioxidant machinery in maize
(Springer Verlag, 2019)
We examined the possible role of monoterpene ?-pinene in providing protection against Cr(VI) toxicity in maize (Zea mays). Treatment with β-pinene (10 μM) significantly alleviated Cr(VI) accumulation and recuperated Cr(VI) ...
Insights into the tolerance and phytoremediation potential of Coronopus didymus L. (Sm) grown under zinc stress
(Elsevier Ltd, 2020)
Zinc (Zn) is a vital micronutrient for plants, but its abundance can be calamitous. In this study, a screenhouse experiment was conducted over a 6-week period to assess the effect of soil enrichment with Zn regimes (100, ...
