Heavy water (DO) is scarce in nature, and despite its physical similarity to water, DO disrupts cellular function due to the isotope effect. While microbes can survive in nearly pure DO, eukaryotes such as are more sensitive and are unable to survive higher concentrations of DO. To explore the underlying molecular mechanisms for these differences, we conducted a comparative proteomic analysis of , , and after 180 min of growth in a DO-supplemented media.

The reproductive stage of plant development has the most critical impact on yield. Flowering is highly sensitive to abiotic stress, and increasing temperatures and drought harm crop yields. Salicylic acid is a phytohormone that regulates flowering and promotes stress resilience in plants.

Cadmium is one of the most toxic heavy metal pollutants, and its accumulation in the soil is harmful to agriculture. Plants have a higher cadmium tolerance than animals, and some species can be used for phytoremediation. Flax ( L.
