As the most widely used herbal medicine in human history and a major defence hormone in
plants against a broad spectrum of pathogens and abiotic stresses, salicylic acid (SA) has …

The phytohormone salicylic acid (SA) is known to regulate plant immunity against
pathogens. Plants synthesize SA via the isochorismate synthase (ICS) pathway or the …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS), and in particular H2O2, serve as essential second
messengers at low concentrations. However, excessive ROS accumulation leads to severe …

Since the original discovery of a Universal Stress Protein (USP) in Escherichia coli, a
number of USPs have been identified from diverse sources including archaea, bacteria …

In agriculture, heat stress (HS) has become one of the eminent abiotic threats to crop growth,
productivity and nutritional security because of the continuous increase in global mean …

Ferroptosis has attracted attention throughout the last decade because of its tremendous
clinical importance. Here, we review the rapidly growing body of literature on how inhibition …

Key message Nitric oxide is a dynamic gaseous molecule involved in signalling, crosstalk
with stress regulators, and plant abiotic-stress responses. It has great exploratory potentials …

As sessile organisms, plants are exposed to diverse abiotic and biotic stresses, and thus
have developed complex signaling mechanisms that orchestrate multiple stress responses …

After 30 years of intensive work, nitric oxide (NO) has just started to be characterized as a
relevant regulatory molecule on plant development and responses to stress. Its reactivity as …
