Unravelling the roles of redox homeostasis and antioxidant system in facilitating adaptive responses during Pb induced hormesis in Brassica juncea

This research explores the role of the antioxidant-prooxidant balance in eliciting the hormesis effect in Brassica juncea seedlings exposed to mild Lead (Pb). Excessive Pb doses in plants causes oxidative stress, which damages plant cells, stunts growth, and reduces agricultural yield. Conversely, mild Pb doses i...
