Background Drought resistance is a complex characteristic closely related to the severity
and duration of stress. Perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) has no distinct drought …

This study sought to assess genetic and environmental impacts on the metabolite
composition of maize grain. Gas chromatography coupled to time-of-flight mass …

During the last decade, there has been growing interest in the role of trehalose metabolism
in tolerance to abiotic stress in higher plants, especially cold stress. So far, this metabolism …

To elucidate the resistance mechanism of exogenous trehalose on water deficit further, we
investigated the effect of exogenous trehalose (50 mM) in wheat callus during water deficit …

Background Trehalose is a non-reducing disaccharide that is used as an osmolyte, transport
sugar, carbon reserve and stress protectant in a wide range of organisms. In plants …

Trehalose, one of the most chemically stable sugars, can effectively improve the tolerance of
various plants against abiotic stress by protecting and stabilizing protein and cell …

Trehalose is a nonreducing α, α-1, 1-disaccharide in a wide range of organisms, and has
diverse biological functions that range from serving as an energy source to acting as a …

Trehalose is a disaccharide with a pivotal role in plant growth and development. In contrast
to the recent advances in understanding trehalose biosynthesis in plants, their catabolism of …

Drought and rising global temperatures are important factors that reduce wheat production.
Trehalose protects the reaction centres and improves photosystem II (PSII) activity under …

The constitutive and drought-induced activities of the Arabidopsis thaliana RD29A and
RD29B promoters were monitored in soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.] via fusions with the …
