Breeding crop plants with increased yield potential and improved tolerance to stressful
environments is critical for global food security. Drought stress (DS) adversely affects …

Melatonin is a multifunctional biomolecule found in both animals and plants. In this review,
the biosynthesis, levels, signaling, and possible roles of melatonin and its metabolites in …

Soil salinity and drought stress (DS) are the massive problem for worldwide agriculture. Both
stresses together become more toxic to the plant growth and development. Silicon (Si) being …

Melatonin, a natural phytohormone in plants, plays multiple critical roles in plant growth and
stress responses. Although melatonin biosynthesis‐related genes have been suggested to …

In recent years, melatonin has emerged as a popular research topic in the field of plant
biology. Since melatonin is implicated in numerous plant developmental processes and …

Abiotic stresses trigger premature leaf senescence by affecting some endogenous factors,
which is an important limitation for plant growth and grain yield. Among these endogenous …

Plant leaf senescence, caused by multiple internal and environmental factors, has an
important impact on agricultural production. The lectin receptor‐like kinase (LecRLK) family …

Delaying early leaf senescence is important for improving photosynthetic efficiency and crop
productivity. Melatonin, a multitasking bio-stimulator, participates widely in plant …

Melatonin plays roles in both plant growth and defense. Serotonin N-acetyltransferase
(SNAT) catalyzes formation of N-acetylserotonin (NAS) from serotonin. Plants contain two …

Melatonin regulates the seasonal reproduction in photoperiodic sensitive animals. Its
function in plants reproduction has not been extensively studied. In the current study, the …
