Plant melatonin research is a rapidly developing field. A variety of isoforms of melatonin's
biosynthetic enzymes are present in different plants. Due to the different origins, they exhibit …

Melatonin is an animal hormone as well as a signaling molecule in plants. It was first
identified in plants in 1995, and almost all enzymes responsible for melatonin biosynthesis …

Melatonin, the most widely distributed hormone in nature, plays important roles in plants.
Many physiological processes in plants are linked to melatonin, including seed germination …

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 …

This review summarizes the advances that have been made in terms of the identified
functions of melatonin in plants. Melatonin is an endogenously-produced molecule in all …

Phytomelatonin, a multifunctional molecule that has been found to be present in all plants
examined to date, has an important role in plants as a modulatory agent (a biostimulator) …

Melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxy-tryptamine) is a mammalian neurohormone, antioxidant and
signaling molecule that was first discovered in plants in 1995. The first studies investigated …

Mitochondria and chloroplasts are major sources of free radical generation in living
organisms. Because of this, these organelles require strong protection from free radicals and …

Melatonin has been detected in numerous plant species. A particularly surprising finding
concerns the highly divergent levels of melatonin that vary between species, organs and …

The cloning of the gene encoding melatonin 2‐hydroxylase (M2H), which is responsible for
the synthesis of 2‐hydroxymelatonin, has expanded the study of melatonin metabolism in …
