Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The use of substances for reducing the impacts of abiotic stressors on plants is currently a very topical issue, especially with regard to the use of biologically active substances, nanoparticles, growth stimulators, fertilizers, etc. Therefore, this Special Issue will focus on the use of these substances in agricultural practice, as well as on how they affect primary and secondary plant metabolism. In the long term, this Special Issue will allow the discovery and application of other substances, with a focus on environmental protection, food quality and safety.
[*] Background and history of this topic: The use of substances that reduce the impact of abiotic stressors on plants is currently a very topical issue, as, along with chemical substances, many such biological substances are emerging. This is a topical issue that is not only related to the field of plant cultivation and plant physiology but also those of food quality and safety and environmental protection.
[*] Aim and scope of this Special Issue: This Special Issue will focus on the use and application of chemical and biological substances usable in agricultural practice to reduce the impacts of abiotic stressors.
This Special Issue requests cutting-edge original and review papers.
