Cytokinins modulate a number of important developmental processes, including the last
phase of leaf development, known as senescence, which is associated with chlorophyll …

Leaf senescence is a typical symptom of heat damage in cool-season plant species. The
objective of this study was to determine whether melatonin could suppress heat-induced leaf …

Leaf senescence is an essential developmental process that impacts dramatically on crop
yields and involves altered regulation of thousands of genes and many metabolic and …

In the past decade tremendous advances have been made in understanding the
biosynthesis, perception, and signaling pathways of the plant hormone cytokinin. It also …

Despite long-standing observations on diverse cytokinin actions, the discovery path to
cytokinin signaling mechanisms was tortuous. Unyielding to conventional genetic screens …

Plant hormones regulate many aspects of plant growth and development. Both auxin and
cytokinin have been known for a long time to act either synergistically or antagonistically to …

The transient gene expression system using Arabidopsis mesophyll protoplasts has proven
an important and versatile tool for conducting cell-based experiments using molecular …

Phosphorus (P) is limiting for crop yield on> 30% of the world's arable land and, by some
estimates, world resources of inexpensive P may be depleted by 2050. Improvement of P …

In plants, the cytokinin (CK) phytohormones regulate numerous biological processes,
including responses to environmental stresses, via a complex network of CK signaling. By …

Melatonin (MEL) has been revealed as a phylogenetically conserved molecule with a
ubiquitous distribution from primitive photosynthetic bacteria to higher plants, including …
