Tomato is an important vegetable that is highly sensitive to drought (DR) stress which impairs the development of tomato seedlings. Recently, melatonin (ME) has emerged as a nontoxic, regulatory biomolecule that regulates plant growth and enhances the DR tolerance mechanism in plants. The present st...

Abstract Background Maternal mortality ratio (MMR) declined in Pakistan from 276 maternal deaths per 100,000 live births in 2006-07 to 186 (confidence interval: 138-234) in 2019. Despite this decline, reasons why mothers continue to die, the inequity in the burden of maternal mortality and its predi...
