The Modern Concept of Hormesis: An Overview of the Issue and Its Significance for Ecology
AbstractCurrently, it has been established that when living organisms are exposed to various environmental factors (abiotic, biotic, and...

Sublethal impacts of Buprofezin and Pyriproxyfen on cotton mealybug Phenacoccus solenopsis through transgenerational hormesis
Insect pests are exposed to repeated applications of pesticides to effectively manage the pest species. This induces insecticide resistance and...

Heat-induced hormesis in longevity is linked to heat-stress sensitivity across laboratory populations from diverse altitude of origin in Drosophila buzzatii
Heat-induced hormesis in longevity is the increase in life span resulting from the previous exposure to a mild heat stress early in life. Here we...

The current insights of mitochondrial hormesis in the occurrence and treatment of bone and cartilage degeneration
It is widely acknowledged that aging, mitochondrial dysfunction, and cellular phenotypic abnormalities are intricately associated with the...

Induced Hormesis in Plants with Herbicide Underdoses
Herbicides are important tools for weed control, but both target and non-target plants are exposed to sublethal underdose composed in the field. Low... -
Hormesis is an evolutionary expectation: implications for aging
This article argues that evolution and the concept of hormesis are biologically inseparable. It proposes that evolutionary processes led to the...

Sublethal concentrations of thiamethoxam induce transgenerational hormesis in cotton aphid, Aphis gossypii Glover
In agroecosystems, insects have to compete with chemical insecticides, which are frequently present at sublethal concentrations. The exposure of...

Hormesis and other non-monotonic growth responses in mung bean (Vigna radiata) seedlings treated with seaweed liquid extracts
Hormesis and other non-monotonic growth responses have been observed in numerous plant species that are independent of biological or physicochemical...

Plant hormesis and Shelford’s tolerance law curve
Shelford's law of tolerance is illustrated by a bell-shaped curve depicting the relationship between environmental factor/factors’ intensity and its...

Warming increases tolerance of an insect pest to fungicide exposure through temperature-mediated hormesis
Pest management strategies relying on agrochemicals could be altered by climate change, because of the temperature-dependent toxicity of the compound...

Intertissue small RNA communication mediates the acquisition and inheritance of hormesis in Caenorhabditis elegans
Environmental conditions can cause phenotypic changes, part of which can be inherited by subsequent generations via soma-to-germline communication....

European Union’s imminent ban on glyphosate: Hormesis should be considered in new chemical screening and selection
The European Federation of Food, Agriculture, and Tourism Trade Unions (EFFAT) called for the immediate ban on glyphosate in the 2022 renewal...

Can Selenium Promote the Hormesis Effect on Germination and Quality of Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) Seeds?
In this study we hypothesize that Se increase nitrogen (N) compounds and sugars in the endosperm boosting seed germination. This study aimed to...

Hormesis of low-dose inhibition of pAkt1 (Ser473) followed by a great increase of proline-rich inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (PIPP) level in oocytes
Hormesis describes a biphasic dose-response relationship generally characterized by a low-dose excitement and a high-dose inhibition. This phenomenon...
