In recent years, the use of priming agents, such as silicon, melatonin, salicylic acid, glycine betaine, and ascorbic acid has gained significant attention for their role in mitigating abiotic stresses across various plant species. While previous research been conducted on individual impact metal stress resistance among crop species, combined effects context heavy stressed conditions remain underexplored. Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) seedlings was grown under toxic concentration copper (Cu) i.e., 100 µM which were applied with hydroponic 21 days. The outcomes indicated that Cu nutrient solution notably reduced growth biomass, photosynthetic pigments, gas exchange attributes. However, also induced oxidative plants by increasing malondialdehyde (MDA), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) increased compounds enzymatic non-enzymatic antioxidants, health risk index (HRI) gene expression sugar content. Furthermore, a increase proline metabolism, AsA-GSH cycle, pigmentation cellular components observed. Although, application different showed characteristics, compounds, decreased HRI. addition, agents enhanced fractionation metabolism cycle T. seedlings. These results open new insights sustainable agriculture practices hold immense promise addressing pressing challenges contamination agricultural soils.
