Salt stress is one of the major environmental stresses limiting plant growth and productivity.
To adapt to salt stress, plants have developed various strategies to integrate exogenous …

In plants, the reactive oxygen species (ROS) formed during normal conditions are essential
in regulating several processes, like stomatal physiology, pathogen immunity and …

Seed plants have evolved to maintain the dormancy of freshly matured seeds until the
appropriate time for germination. Seed dormancy and germination are distinct physiological …

Soil salinization inhibits plant growth and seriously restricts food security and agricultural
development. Excessive salt can cause ionic stress, osmotic stress, and ultimately oxidative …

Salicylic acid (SA) is a naturally occurring phenolic compound. SA plays an important role in
the regulation of plant growth, development, ripening, and defense responses. The role of …

Seeds are facing harsher environments due to the changing climate. Improving seeds' stress
resilience is critical to reduce yield loss. Here, we propose that using ROS-generating …

It is well established that salicylic acid (SA) plays a critical role in the transcriptional
reprograming that occurs during the plant defense response against biotic and abiotic …

In recent years salicylic acid (SA) has been the focus of intensive research due to its function
as an endogenous signal mediating local and systemic plant defence responses against …

Germination vigor is driven by the ability of the plant embryo, embedded within the seed, to
resume its metabolic activity in a coordinated and sequential manner. Studies using “-omics” …

In plants, salicylic acid (SA) is a hormone that mediates a plant's defense against pathogens.
SA also takes an active role in a plant's response to various abiotic stresses, including …
