Dynamic environmental changes such as extreme temperature, water scarcity and high
salinity affect plant growth, survival, and reproduction. Plants have evolved sophisticated …

Being continuously exposed to variable environmental conditions, plants produce
phytohormones to react quickly and specifically to these changes. The phytohormone …

Abstract Background Hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum) is a globally important crop. Heat,
drought and their combination dramatically reduce wheat yield and quality, but the …

Owing to diverse abiotic stresses and global climate deterioration, the agricultural
production worldwide is suffering serious losses. Breeding stress-resilient crops with higher …

Jasmonic acid (JA) is a critical hormonal regulator of plant growth and defense. To advance
our understanding of the architecture and dynamic regulation of the JA gene regulatory …

Transcription factors (TFs) are master regulators of abiotic stress responses in plants. This
review focuses on TFs from seven major TF families, known to play functional roles in …

Ethylene‐responsive factors (ERFs) are plant‐specific transcription factors involved in cold
stress response, and raffinose is known to accumulate in plants exposed to cold. However, it …

Plant reproductive organs are vulnerable to heat, but regulation of heat-shock responses in
inflorescence is largely uncharacterized. Here, we report that two of the SQUAMOSA …

In mammalian cells, the transcription factor p53 plays a crucial role in transmitting DNA
damage signals to maintain genome integrity. However, in plants, orthologous genes for p53 …

Jasmonates regulate transcriptional reprogramming during growth, development, and
defense responses. Jasmonoyl-isoleucine, an amino acid conjugate of jasmonic acid (JA), is …
