Sunlight provides the necessary energy for plant growth via photosynthesis but high light
and particular its integral ultraviolet (UV) part causes stress potentially leading to serious …

The genome integrity of all organisms is constantly threatened by replication errors and DNA
damage arising from endogenous and exogenous sources. Such base pair anomalies must …

Trees are long‐lived organisms that continuously adapt to their environments, a process in
which epigenetic mechanisms are likely to play a key role. Via downregulation of the …

Epigenetic processes including DNA methylation play a pivotal role in regulating the genes
that control plant development. In contrast to in planta development, the contribution of DNA …

Chromatin is not a uniform macromolecular entity; it contains different domains
characterized by complex signatures of DNA and histone modifications. Such domains are …

As sessile organisms, plants have to deal with unfavourable conditions by acclimating or
adapting in order to survive. Regulation of flower induction is one such mechanism to …

Environment and crop management shape plant's phenotype. Argentinean high-altitude
vineyards are characterized by elevated solar ultraviolet-B radiation (UV single bond B) and …

Summary The C‐REPEAT‐BINDING FACTOR (CBF) pathway has important roles in plant
responses to cold stress. How the CBF genes themselves are activated after cold …

Phytochromes are the best characterized and most frequently studied plant photoreceptors.
A plethora of studies have revealed important roles for phytochromes in plant development …

The integrity of DNA molecules is constantly challenged. All organisms have developed
mechanisms to detect and repair multiple types of DNA lesions. The basic principles of DNA …
