Nutrient stress is the most important environmental stress that limits plant growth and
development. Although recent evidence highlights the vital functions of long non-coding …

Background The immobile nature of plants means that they can be frequently confronted by
various biotic and abiotic stresses during their lifecycle. Among the various abiotic stresses …

Plant lncRNAs are expected to play important roles in various plant processes including
response to abiotic stress, although the functions of most plant lncRNAs are still unknown …

Tea (Camellia sinensis) is one of the significant cash crops in China. As a leaf crop, nitrogen
supply can not only increase the number of new shoots and leaves but also improve the …

Abiotic stresses triggered by climate change and human activity cause substantial
agricultural and environmental problems which hamper plant growth. Plants have evolved …

Abstract Background Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been shown to play crucially
regulatory roles in diverse biological processes involving complex mechanisms. However …

Plant growth and productivity are largely affected by environmental stresses. Therefore,
plants have evolved unique adaptation mechanisms to abiotic stresses through fine-tuned …

Evolutionary processes have evolved plants to cope with several different natural stresses.
Basic physiological activities of crop plants are significantly harmed by these stresses …

Abstract Background Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been shown to play important
roles in the response of plants to various abiotic stresses, including drought, heat and salt …

Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are a family of regulatory RNAs, which do not encode mRNA,
rRNA or tRNA, found in a variety of organisms including plants. Different classes of ncRNAs …
