Foliar chitosan–selenite formulation improves wheat seedling growth under NaCl irrigation

Salinity limits wheat productivity through osmotic stress, ion toxicity, oxidative damage and disruption of photosynthesis. Chitosan and selenium are used as biostimulants, but formulations combining them have rarely been evaluated in wheat. This study examined whether a foliar c...

Effect of Short-Term, Above-Optimal Temperature on the Phenology of Partially or Fully Vernalized Seedlings and Its Consequences on Grain Yield in Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

Due to global climate change, short periods of unusually warm temperatures occur during winter and early spring with increasing frequency. Although temperature effects on wheat development have been extensively studied during later reproductive stages, the consequences of short-t...

Ligand-based pharmacophore modeling for the discovery of NaV1.7 inhibitors

Abstract Voltage-gated sodium channel Na V 1.7 is a key mediator of electrical excitability and signal transmission in peripheral nociceptors and has emerged as a highly attractive therapeutic target for the development of novel analgesic agents. However, the development of selec...
