Cotton fiber is a specialized unicellular structure useful for the study of cellular differentiation
and development. Heat shock proteins (HSPs) have been shown to be involved in various …

Background Heat shock transcriptional factors (Hsfs) play important roles in the processes of
biotic and abiotic stresses as well as in plant development. Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum …

Abstract In higher plants, Heat Shock Protein 20 (Hsp20) plays crucial roles in growth,
development and responses to abiotic stresses. In this study, 94 GhHsp20 genes were …

Heat stress significantly affect plant growth and development, which is an important factor
contributing to crop yield loss. However, heat shock proteins (HSPs) in plants can effectively …

Introduction: Cotton is an important economic crop to provide natural fibers as raw materials
to textile industry, and is significantly affected by biotic and abiotic stress during the whole …

Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are important elements of the cellular group of molecular
chaperones. Specifically, HSP70 proteins protect cells from being damaged when plants are …

Heat shock transcription factors (HSF) have been demonstrated to play a significant
transcriptional regulatory role in plants and considered as an integral part of signal …

Low temperature stress is one of the major abiotic stresses limiting the formation of cotton
(Gossypium hirsutum L.) fiber qualities, especially fiber length. To investigate the molecular …

Plant-specific heat shock protein 70 s (HSP70s) play crucial roles in response to various
environmental stimuli. GhHSP70-26, an HSP70 member, is involved in the response to …

The 70-kDa heat shock protein (HSP70) is a molecular chaperone that plays an important
role in the response of plants to abiotic stress, but the function and molecular mechanism of …
