Exogenously applied melatonin enhanced the tolerance of Brassica napus against cobalt toxicity by modulating antioxidant defense, osmotic adjustment, and expression of stress response genes

Exogenously applied melatonin enhanced the tolerance of Brassica napus against cobalt toxicity by modulating antioxidant defense, osmotic adjustment, and expression of stress response genes

The excessive accumulation of cobalt (Co) in plant tissues severely impairs plant growth that ultimately reduces the yield. However, melatonin (MT) has been known to mediate the abiotic stress tolerance in plants. The present study aimed at investigating the protective mechanisms of exogenously appl...
