Drought (water deficits) and heat (high temperatures) stress are the prime abiotic
constraints, under the current and climate change scenario in future. Any further increase in …

Sugars are the most important regulators that facilitate many physiological processes, such
as photosynthesis, seed germination, flowering, senescence, and many more under various …

The cytokinins have been implicated in many facets of plant growth and development
including cell division and differentiation, shoot and root growth, apical dominance …

Grain yield is a highly polygenic trait that is influenced by the environment and integrates
events throughout the life cycle of a plant. In wheat, the major grain yield components often …

Drought tolerance is a complex trait that involves numerous genes. Identifying key causal
genes or linked molecular markers can facilitate the fast development of drought tolerant …

The evolution of seeds defines a remarkable landmark in the history of land plants. A
developing seed contains three genetically distinct structures: the embryo, the nourishing …

Plants have evolved seeds to permit the survival and dispersion of their lineages by
providing nutrition for embryo growth and resistance to unfavorable environmental …

Unraveling gene function is pivotal to understanding the signaling cascades that control
plant development and stress responses. As experimental profiling is costly and labor …

To understand the gene expression networks controlling soybean seed set and size,
transcriptome analyses were performed in three early seed developmental stages, using two …

Seed development is an intricate process regulated via a complex transcriptional regulatory
network. To understand the molecular mechanisms governing seed development and seed …
