Hsp20 proteins exist in all plant species and represent the most abundant small heat shock
proteins (sHSPs) in plants. Hsp20s were known as chaperones maintaining cellular …

Key message The association of natural genetic variations of salt-responsive candidate
genes belonging to different gene families with salt-tolerance phenotype and their haplotype …

Because plants are continually exposed to various environmental stresses, they possess
numerous transcription factors that regulate metabolism to adapt and acclimate to those …

Small heat shock proteins (sHSPs) are an HSP subgroup and involved in environmental
stress response. In the current study, to understand the role of sHSP protein in a widely …

Heat shock transcription factors (HSFs) play a critical regulatory role in many plant disease
resistance pathways. However, the molecular mechanisms of cotton HSFs involved in …

Background The heat shock transcription factor (HSF) plays a crucial role in the regulatory
network by coordinating responses to heat stress as well as other stress signaling pathways …

Temperature shapes the geographical distribution and behavior of plants. Understanding
the regulatory mechanisms underlying the plant heat response is important for developing …

Soil salinity is a severe constraint on crop productivity that triggers plant salt stress response
pathways. The salt stress responses are controlled by transcriptional regulatory networks …

Stress perception and communication play important roles in the adaptation of plants to
changing environmental conditions. Plant roots are the first organs to detect changes in the …

Soil salinity affects various crop cultivation but legumes are the most sensitive to salinity.
Osmotic stress is the first stage of salinity stress caused by excess salts in the soil on plants …
