Stomatal movements are essential for plants to regulate photosynthesis rate, water status,
and immunity. Upon stress stimulation, the production of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2) in the …

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 …

Cotton is an important industrial crop worldwide and upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.)
is most widely cultivated in the world. Due to ever-increasing water deficit, drought stress …

Plant responses to pathogen attacks and high-temperature stress (HTS) are distinct in
nature but generally share several signaling components. How plants produce specific …

Aquaporins (AQPs) transport water and other small molecules; however, their precise role in
abiotic stress responses is not fully understood. In this study, we cloned and characterized …

Drought is a major abiotic stress affecting banana production worldwide, leading to yield
losses of up to 65%. Consequently, numerous efforts to understand and mitigate drought …

NAC transcription factors (TFs) could regulate drought stresses in plants; however, the
function of NAC TFs in soybeans remains unclear. To unravel NAC TF function, we …

NAC proteins represent one of the largest transcription factor (TF) families involved in the
regulation of plant development and the response to abiotic stress. In the present study, we …

Adverse environmental factors severely affect crop productivity. Improving crop resistance to
multiple stressors is an important breeding goal. Although CBF s/DREB1 s extensively …

NAC family gene-SNAC1 (Stress-responsive NAC1) is responsive to drought, salt, cold
stress, and ABA. It acts as a regulator in mediating tolerance to abiotic stress through …
