Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) possesses notable inter-and intraspecific salt tolerance
variation, but the mechanisms underlying this variation are, more or less, unclear. To explore …

Excess soluble salts in saline soils are harmful to most plants. Understanding the
biochemical responses to salts in plants and studying the salt tolerance-associated genetic …

Background Abscisic acid (ABA) receptor pyrabactin resistance 1/PYR1-like/regulatory
components of ABA receptor proteins (PYR/PYL/RCARs) have been demonstrated to play …

Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades play pivotal roles in mediating biotic and
abiotic stress responses. Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) is the most important textile crop in …

Abiotic stress, such as drought and salinity stress, seriously inhibit the growth and
development of plants. Therefore, it is vital to understand the drought and salinity resistance …

Abiotic stress tolerance is an intricate feature controlled through several genes and networks
in the plant system. In abiotic stress, salt, and drought are well known to limit cotton …

Background: Salinity stress is a major adverse environmental factor that can limit crop yield
and restrict normal land use. The selection of salt-tolerant strains and elucidation of the …

Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades play important roles in mediating biotic
and abiotic stress responses. In plants, MAPKs are classified into four major groups (A–D) …

Wild relatives of crops are often rich in genetic resources and provide great possibilities for
crop improvement. Ipomoea pes-caprae is one of the wild relatives of sweet potato and has …

Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) is the main natural fiber crop worldwide and is an
essential source of seed oil and biofuel products. Many abiotic stresses, such as drought …
