Better understanding of the mechanistic basis of plant plasticity will enhance efforts to breed
crops resilient to predicted climate change. However, complexity in plasticity's …

To better adapt transiently or lastingly to stimuli from the surrounding environment, the
chromatin states in plant cells vary to allow the cells to fine-tune their transcriptional profiles …

Background The recent advancements in high-throughput sequencing have resulted in the
availability of annotated genomes, as well as of multi-omics data for many living organisms …

Sessile plants are exposed throughout their existence to environmental abiotic and biotic
stress factors, such as cold, heat, salinity, drought, dehydration, submergence, waterlogging …

The toxic effects of salinity on agricultural productivity necessitate development of salt stress
tolerance in food crops in order to meet the escalating demands. Plants use sophisticated …

Plants' stress response machinery is characterized by an intricate network of signaling
cascades that receive and transmit environmental cues and ultimately trigger transcriptional …
