Nitric oxide mitigates the phytotoxicity of imidazolium-based ionic liquids in Arabidopsis.

Ionic liquids (ILs) have many beneficial properties that are extensively used in various fields. Despite their utility, the phytotoxic aspects of ILs are poorly known. This is especially true at the transcriptomic level and the role of nitric oxide (NO) in this process.

Microbial community in buckwheat rhizosphere with different nitrogen application rates.

Microorganism plays a pivotal role in regulating sustainable development of agriculture. The excessive application of nitrogen fertilizer is considered to affect the microbial structure in many agricultural systems. The present study aimed to assess the impacts of nitrogen application rate on microbial diversity, community and functionality in rhizosphere of Tartary buckwheat in short-time.
