Temperature is a key factor governing the growth and development, distribution, and
seasonal behavior of plants. The entire plant life cycle is affected by environmental …

During the course of their ontogenesis plants are continuously exposed to a large variety of
abiotic stress factors which can damage tissues and jeopardize the survival of the organism …

The increased prevalence of high temperatures (HTs) around the world is a major global
concern, as they dramatically affect agronomic productivity. Upon HT exposure, plants sense …

Leaf senescence is an important developmental process in the plant life cycle and has a
significant impact on agriculture. When facing harsh environmental conditions, monocarpic …

The specific genetic changes through which plants adapt to the multitude of environmental
stresses are possible because of the molecular regulations in the system. These intricate …

Pre-exposing (priming) plants to mild, non-lethal elevated temperature improves their
tolerance to a later higher-temperature stress (triggering stimulus), which is of great …

Within the last decade, NAC transcription factors have been shown to play essential roles in
senescence, which is the focus of this review. Transcriptome analyses associate …

Key message Plant heat stress response is a multi-factorial trait that is precisely regulated by
the complex web of transcription factors from various families that modulate heat stress …

Fruits are derived from flowers and play an important role in human food, nutrition, and
health. In general, flowers determine the crop yield, and ripening affects the fruit quality …

Leaf senescence is an essential physiological process that is accompanied by the
remobilization of nutrients from senescent leaves to young leaves or other developing …
