Brassinosteroids and their role in response of plants to abiotic stresses (2014, background): “…resistance to plants against various biotic and abiotic stresses, such as salinity (Hayat et al. 2010), water stress (Fariduddin et al. 2009a), temperature extremes (Fariduddin et al. 2011, Gomes 2011), and heavy metals (Bajguz and Hayat 2009, Fariduddin et al. 2009b, Yusuf et al. 2011, 2012).”
Brassinosteroids make plant life easier under abiotic stresses mainly by modulating major components of antioxidant defense system (2015, background): “…elevated content of proline) in cucumber (Cucumis sativus) were reported to improve tolerance of this plant to chilling temperatures (10/8◦C, 5/3◦C) (Fariduddin et al., 2011; BRs 5, 10, and 15 μM) effectively reduced chilling injury of pepper fruit during 18-day storage at 3◦C by reducing the…”
