The WRKY transcription factor (TF) belongs to one of the major plant protein superfamilies.
The WRKY TF gene family plays an important role in the regulation of transcriptional …

Gibberellins have been classically related to a few key developmental processes, thus being
essential for the accurate unfolding of plant genetic programs. After more than a century of …

Heat stress and abscisic acid (ABA) induce leaf senescence, whereas melatonin (MT) and
gibberellins (GA) play critical roles in inhibiting leaf senescence. Recent research findings …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) trigger and accelerate leaf senescence. Melatonin, a low
molecular compound with several biological functions in plants, is known to delay leaf …

Melatonin and abscisic acid (ABA) play contrasting roles in regulating leaf senescence in
plants. The molecular mechanism underlying the interaction between melatonin and ABA …

Leaf senescence is the last stage of leaf development and is an orderly biological process
accompanied by degradation of macromolecules and nutrient recycling, which contributes to …

The expansion of gene families during evolution could generate functional diversity among
their members to regulate plant growth and development. Melatonin, a phylogenetically …

Plant growth and development are correlated with many aspects, including phytohormones,
which have specific functions. However, the mechanism underlying the process has not …

Leaf senescence, the final stage of leaf development, is one of the adaptive mechanisms
formed by plants over a long period of evolution. Leaf senescence is accompanied by …

WRKY transcription factors have been suggested to play important roles in response and
adaptation to drought stress. However, how sorghum WRKY transcription factors function in …
