Practical and cost-effective food safety and production methods are essential, as huge areas of arable land are contaminated through heavy metals, including cadmium (Cd) pollution worldwide. This study was performed to assess impacts of dissimilar doses of trehalose (Tre) (0, 25, 50 mM) as foliar spray on wheat plants grown under different Cd stress levels (0, 2.5, 5, 10 mg/kg), considering different growth, photosynthetic attributes and antioxidative defense mechanism in relation with the uptake of Cd to different plant parts. A considerable reduction was detected in growth, biomass, and chlorophyll contents under Cd stress linked with boosted lipid peroxidation, electrolyte …

High temperatures may cause scorching of the twigs and leaves along with visual symptoms of sunburn, leaf senescence, growth inhibition, and ultimately decreased plant growth and biomass. Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) is one of the important oil seed crops and it potentially fits in agricultural system and oil production sector of Pakistan. Hence, it is important to get the best variety which may able to tolerate high temperatures in hot and humid environments. For this purpose, we have conducted the present study using ten different cultivars of (Hysin-33, T-40, H-OI, Hysin-39, Suncross, Gulshin, FH-825, FH-797, FH-784, AGSUN-5270) of H. …
