Gibberellic acid (GA) alleviates Al toxicity in rice (Oryza sativa) through a nitric oxide (NO) dependent pathway

Key Points

• Gibberellic acid effectively alleviates aluminum toxicity, enhancing rice growth and resilience.
• Key evidence shows that treatment with gibberellic acid improves plant physiological performance significantly.
• Assessment using biochemical assays reveals a nitric oxide dependent mechanism to counter Al toxicity in rice.
• This study highlights the potential of gibberellic acid to improve crop resilience under stress conditions.
