The major natural auxin in plants, indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), orchestrates a plethora of
developmental responses that largely depend on the formation of auxin concentration …

Due to their sessile state, plants are inevitably affected by and respond to the external
environment. So far, plants have developed multiple adaptation and regulation strategies to …

In the coming decades, larger genetic gains in yield will be necessary to meet projected
demand, and this must be achieved despite the destabilizing impacts of climate change on …

Recent evidence sheds light on the peculiar type of plant intelligence. Plants have
developed complex molecular networks that allow them to remember, choose, and make …

Heat stress events are major factors limiting crop productivity. During summer days, land
plants must anticipate in a timely manner upcoming mild and severe temperature. They …

Simple Summary Research on plant epigenetics aims to understand how endogenous,
biotic, and abiotic factors regulate plant development and growth independent of changes in …

DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification of the genome involved in the regulation of
gene expression and modulation of chromatin structure. Plant genomes are widely …

Priming reflects the capacity of plants to memorise environmental stress experience and
improve their response to recurring stress. Epigenetic modifications in DNA and associated …

Recent technological advances in the field of genomics offer conservation managers and
practitioners new tools to explore for conservation applications. Many of these tools are well …

Epigenetic changes are the heritable modifications in genes without altering DNA
sequences. The epigenetic changes occur in the plant genomes to regulate gene …
