Environmental stress is one of the most important factors affecting plant growth and
development. Recent studies have shown that epigenetic mechanisms, such as DNA …

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 nature, plants are frequently exposed to various stress. Since plants are sessile
organisms, their ability to cope with stress is crucial. It is known that epigenetic mechanisms …

Background A review of research shows that methylation in plants is more complex and
sophisticated than in microorganisms and animals. Overall, studies on the effects of abiotic …

Plants are continuously exposed to various abiotic and biotic factors limiting their growth and
reproduction. In response, they need various sophisticated ways to adapt to adverse …

Plants are continuously exposed to a vast multiplicity of stressful factors, both of biotic or
abiotic nature, that negatively affect their development, yield, and reproductive success. To …

Background Climate change has had a tremendous impact on the environment in general
as well as agricultural crops grown in these situations as time passed. Agricultural …

Plants are able to acclimate to new growth conditions on a relatively short time-scale.
Recently, we showed that the progeny of plants exposed to various abiotic stresses …

Epigenetics involves the heritable changes in patterns of gene expression determined by
developmental and abiotic stresses, ie, drought, cold, salinity, trace metals, and heat. Gene …

DNA methylation is a dynamic epigenetic mechanism that plays a significant role in gene
expression and also maintains chromatin stability. The process is conserved in both plants …
