Correction: Dilawar et al. Rhizofungus Aspergillus terreus Mitigates Heavy Metal Stress-Associated Damage in Triticum aestivum L. Plants 2024, 13, 2643

Key Points

• The research aims to evaluate the ability of Aspergillus terreus to alleviate heavy metal stress in wheat plants.
• Inoculation of Triticum aestivum with Rhizofungus Aspergillus terreus to assess stress resilience.
• Measurement of physiological parameters and heavy metal accumulation in plant tissues.
• Detailed analysis of plant response over a specified growth period.
• Aspergillus terreus significantly reduced heavy metal accumulation in wheat leaves and roots (p<0.05).
• Physiological assessments showed improved growth metrics, with a 30% increase in biomass in treated plants compared to controls.
• Enhanced chlorophyll content was observed in inoculated plants, indicating better stress adaptation.
