Reactive oxygen species (ROS) originate as a natural byproduct in standard metabolism of
oxygen activities. The principal sites of ROS generation in the cell are apoplast …

Synthetic polyploids have been extensively studied for breeding in the last decade.
However, the use of such genotypes at the agronomical level is still limited. Polyploidization …

Trifoliate orange (Poncirus trifoliata), a deciduous close relative of evergreen Citrus, has
important traits for citrus production, including tolerance/resistance to citrus greening …

Tetraploids have been reported to exhibit increased stress tolerance, but the underlying
molecular and physiological mechanisms remain poorly understood. In this study …

Citrus rootstocks are a relevant tree part that contributes to crops adapting to biotic and
abiotic conditions, it becoming a key factor to face the current era of climate change …

Citrus junos is a widely used citrus grafting rootstock in china because of its excellent
tolerance to cold stress. However, the physiological and molecular mechanisms underlying …

Low temperature-induced cold stress is a major threat to plant growth, development and
distribution. Unraveling the responses of temperature-sensitive crops to cold stress and the …

Tetraploids are usually more tolerant to environmental stresses than diploids. Citrus plants
face numerous abiotic stresses, including salinity, which negatively affect growth and yield …

Water scarcity restricts citrus growth and productivity worldwide. In pot conditions, tetraploid
plants tolerate water deficit more than their corresponding diploids. However, their tolerance …

Background The citrus genus comprises a number of sensitive tropical and subtropical
species to cold stress, which limits global citrus distribution to certain latitudes and causes …
