Phytohormones (PHs) play crucial role in regulation of various physiological and
biochemical processes that govern plant growth and yield under optimal and stress …

Since the discovery of eukaryotic small RNAs as the main effectors of RNA interference in
the late 1990s, diverse types of endogenous small RNAs have been characterized, most …

Small RNAs are short non-coding RNAs with a length ranging between 20 and 24
nucleotides. Of these, microRNAs (miRNAs) play a distinct role in plant development …

Recurrent heat stress and pathogen invasion seriously threaten crop production, and abiotic
stress often antagonizes biotic stress response against pathogens. However, the molecular …

Soil flooding creates composite and complex stress in plants known as either submergence
or waterlogging stress depending on the depth of the water table. In nature, these stresses …

Phenylpropanoids are a large class of plant secondary metabolites derived from aromatic
amino acids phenylalanine in most plants or tyrosine in partial monocots. It mainly includes …

Root systems can display variable architectures that contribute to survival strategies of
plants. The model plant Arabidopsis thaliana possesses a tap root system, in which the …

In eukaryotes, three-dimensional genome organization is critical for transcriptional
regulation of gene expression. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) can modulate chromatin …

Auxin is arguably the most important signaling molecule in plants, and the last few decades
have seen remarkable breakthroughs in understanding its production, transport, and …

While the role of proteins in determining cell identity has been extensively studied, the
contribution of small noncoding RNA molecules such as miRNAs and siRNAs has been also …
