The NAC transcription factor (TF) family is one of the largest plant-specific TF families and its
members are involved in the regulation of many vital biological processes during plant …

Fruits result from complex biological processes that begin soon after fertilization. Among
these processes are cell division and expansion, accumulation of secondary metabolites …

Many organisms evolved strategies to survive desiccation. Plant seeds protect dehydrated
embryos from various stressors and can lay dormant for millennia. Hydration is the key …

Vegetative phase changes in plants describes the transition between juvenile and adult
phases of vegetative growth before flowering. It is one of the most fundamental mechanisms …

Ripening is a complex physiological process that involves changes in reactive nitrogen and
oxygen species that govern the shelf-life and quality of fruits. Nitric oxide (NO)-dependent …

Fruits and seeds resulting from fertilization of flowers, represent an incredible evolutionary
advantage in angiosperms and have seen them become a critical element in our food …

Flowering plants produce flowers and one of the most complex floral structures is the pistil or
the gynoecium. All the floral organs differentiate from the floral meristem. Various reviews …

In plants, chloroplasts are the sites at which photosynthesis occurs, and an increased
abundance of chloroplasts increases the nutritional quality of plants and the resultant color …

Stomata are epidermal pores formed by pairs of specialized guard cells, which regulate gas
exchanges between the plant and the atmosphere. Modulation of transcription has emerged …

Upon fertilization, the ovary increases in size and undergoes a complex developmental
process to become a fruit. We show that cytokinins (CKs), which are required to determine …
