Plants are extensively well-thought-out as the main source for nourishing natural life on
earth. In the natural environment, plants have to face several stresses, mainly heat stress …

Agricultural crops are exposed to various abiotic stresses, such as salinity, water deficits,
temperature extremes, floods, radiation, and metal toxicity. To overcome these challenges …

Identifying the genetic basis of local adaptation and fitness trade-offs across environments is
a central goal of evolutionary biology. Cold acclimation is an adaptive plastic response for …

There is considerable evidence for local adaptation in nature, yet important questions
remain regarding its genetic basis. How many loci are involved? What are their effect sizes …

When grown under cool temperature, winter annuals upregulate photosynthetic capacity as
well as freezing tolerance. Here, the role of three cold‐induced C‐repeat‐binding factor …

CRISPR has brought a revolutionary impetus to the field of life sciences. The abundance of
CRISPR arrays found in nature and the programmability of Cas nucleases have catalyzed …

Arabidopsis thaliana ecotypes adapted to native habitats with different daylengths,
temperatures, and precipitation were grown experimentally under seven combinations of …

Simple Summary Pests and diseases, along with environmental factors, significantly
contribute to yield losses in crop production. Considering the detrimental impact of …

Genetic mechanisms of species local adaptation are an emerging topic of great interest in
evolutionary biology and molecular ecology. In this study, we compared the changes of …

Improvement of crop climate resilience will require an understanding of whole-plant
adaptation to specific local environments. This review places features of plant form and …
