Plant Heavy Metal Stressby Rishikesh Upadhyay|Submitted: Feb 18, 2024|Genres: Education & Teaching, NonfictionBook Type:Print & Digital amazon.comIncrease in environmental pollution as well as contamination of water by heavy metals, associated with plants and other food products due to increase in human anthropogenic activities, has resulted in damages to natural resources. Plants, be aquatic or submerged ones, are the best indicators of such unseen killers, and as such develop tolerance to such metabolically toxic pollutants, including heavy metals. Aquatic ecosystem is susceptible to such pollution, precisely because of different...Read More
Plant Stress Physiologyby Rishikesh Upadhyay|Submitted: Feb 18, 2024|Genres: Education & Teaching, Home & Garden, NonfictionBook Type:Print & Digital amazon.com"Stress", according to the dictionary, is "pressure or tension exerted on an object".
