Excess soil salinity affects large regions of land and is a major hindrance to crop production
worldwide. Therefore, understanding the molecular mechanisms of plant salt tolerance has …

Soil salinity is one of the most detrimental abiotic stresses affecting plant survival, and light is
a core environmental signal regulating plant growth and responses to abiotic stress …

Plants exhibit an enormous phenotypic plasticity to adjust to changing environmental
conditions. For this purpose, they have evolved mechanisms to detect and measure biotic …

Abscisic acid (ABA), a classical plant hormone, plays an essential role in plant adaptation to
environmental stresses. The ABA signaling mechanisms have been extensively …

To ensure optimal growth, plants actively regulate their growth and development based on
environmental changes. Among these, salt stress significantly influences growth and yield …

Abstract Calcium (Ca2+) is a second messenger in plants growth and development, as well
as in stress responses. The transient elevation in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration have been …

The hypocotyl is the embryonic stem connecting the primary root to the cotyledons.
Hypocotyl length varies tremendously depending on the conditions. This developmental …

Plants growing in dense vegetation stands need to flexibly position their photosynthetic
organs to ensure optimal light capture in a competitive environment. They do so through a …

Shade avoidance syndrome (SAS) is triggered by a low ratio of red (R) to far‐red (FR) light
(R/FR ratio), which is caused by neighbor detection and/or canopy shade. In order to …

Plants adjust their growth and development in response to changing light caused by canopy
shade. The molecular mechanisms underlying shade avoidance responses have been …
