Although Solanum nigrum L. is a phytoremediator for different metals, its growth and physiology are still compromised by toxic levels of zinc (Zn). Thus, the development of eco-friendly strategies to enhance its tolerance, maintaining remediation potential is of special interest. This study
Brassinosteroids (BRs) are essential for plant growth and development; however, their roles in the regulation of stomatal opening or closure remain obscure. Here, the mechanism underlying BR-induced stomatal movements is studied. The effects of 24-epibrassinolide (EBR) on the stomatal apertures of
Nitric oxide (NO) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MPK) play important roles in brassinosteroid (BR)-induced stress tolerance, however, their functions in BR-induced pesticides metabolism remain unclear. Here, we showed that MPK activity and transcripts of SlMPK1 and SlMPK2 were induced by
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are toxic to both plants and animals. The enhancement of plant tolerance and detoxification capacity is important for the plant-based remediation of PAHs. Therefore, we investigated the effects of 24-epibrassinolide (EBR) on the metabolism of a three-ringed
