Seed priming with Mg(NO3)2 and ZnSO4 salts triggers physio-biochemical and antioxidant defense to induce water stress adaptation in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
Wheat is a widely grown cereal crop that provides >20% daily protein intake and calories worldwide. Drought stress drastically affects the crucial physiological (relative water content; RWC), biochemical (proline content), and molecular attributes in wheat plants from germination to maturity stag...
