Leaf senescence, the last stage of leaf development, is a type of postmitotic senescence and
is characterized by the functional transition from nutrient assimilation to nutrient …

We present unresolved questions in plant abiotic stress biology as posed by 15 research
groups with expertise spanning eco-physiology to cell and molecular biology. Common …

Photoperiodic flowering is one of the most important factors affecting regional adaptation
and yield in soybean (Glycine max). Plant adaptation to long‐day conditions at higher …

The transcription regulatory network inside a eukaryotic cell is defined by the combinatorial
actions of transcription factors (TFs). However, TF binding studies in plants are too few in …

Vertical farming (VF) is a novel plant production system that allows local production of high-
quality fruits and vegetables for rapidly growing cities. VF offers a myriad of opportunities to …

Among crop fruit trees, the apricot (Prunus armeniaca) provides an excellent model to study
divergence and adaptation processes. Here, we obtain nearly 600 Armeniaca apricot …

The roles of clock components in salt stress tolerance remain incompletely characterized in
rice. Here, we show that, among OsPRR (Oryza sativa Pseudo‐Response Regulator) family …

The circadian clock plays essential roles in diverse plant biological processes, such as
flowering, phytohormone biosynthesis and abiotic stress responses. The manner in which …

As a response to environmental changes driven by the Earth's axial rotation, most organisms
evolved an internal biological timer—the so called circadian clock—which regulates …

Seed germination and postgerminative growth require the precise coordination of multiple
intrinsic and environmental signals. The phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) suppresses …
