The dual effects of reactive oxygen species (ROS) on living organisms have become a hot
research topic in the biomedical field. Excessive ROS triggers oxidative imbalances in the …

Reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (ROS/RNS) have personated themselves as integral
components of signal transduction processes regulating vital functions in plants exposed to …

Plant height, as one of the important agronomic traits of rice, is closely related to yield. In
recent years, plant height-related genes have been characterized and identified, among …

The uplift of the Qinghai Tibet Plateau has led to a drastic change in the climate in Central
Asia, from warm and rainy, to dry and less rainfall. Ammopiptanthus nanus, a rare evergreen …

Salt stress poses physiological drought, ionic toxicity and oxidative stress to plants, which
causes premature senescence and death of the leaves if the stress sustained. Salt tolerance …

Light intensity and spectrum play a major role in the regulation of the growth, development,
and stress response of plants. Changes in the light conditions affect the formation of reactive …

Among all the nutrients, nitrogen (N) and phosphorous (P) are the most limiting factors
reducing wheat production and productivity world-wide. These macronutrients are directly …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small endogenous single-stranded RNAs that regulate plant
growth, development, and environmental stress response posttranscriptionally …

One of the key enigmas in conventional and modern crop improvement programmes is how
to introduce beneficial traits without any penalty impairment. Rice (Oryza sativa L.), among …

Mining the key genes involved in the balance of rice salt tolerance is extremely important for
developing salt-tolerant rice varieties. A library of japonica mutants was screened under …
