Modulation of antioxidant defense and PSII components by exogenously applied acetate mitigates salinity stress in Avena sativa.

Salinity stress has detrimental effects on various aspects of plant development. However, our understanding of strategies to mitigate these effects in crop plants remains limited. Recent research has shed light on the potential of sodium acetate as a mitigating component against salinity stress in several plant species.

Brassinosteroid Signaling Pathways: Insights into Plant Responses under Abiotic Stress.

With the growing global population, abiotic factors have emerged as a formidable threat to agricultural food production. If left unaddressed, these stress factors might reduce food yields by up to 25% by 2050. Plants utilize natural mechanisms, such as reactive oxygen species scavenging, to mitigate the adverse impacts of abiotic stressors.
