Melatonin is a well-known agent that plays multiple roles in animals. Its possible function in
plants is less clear. In the present study, we tested the effect of melatonin (N-acetyl-5 …

WRKY transcription factors play important roles in response to various abiotic stresses.
Previous study have proved that soybean GmWRKY54 can improve stress tolerance in …

Drought causes substantial reductions in crop yields worldwide. Therefore, we set out to
identify new chemical and genetic factors that regulate drought resistance in Arabidopsis …

Drought is a major threat to plant growth and crop productivity. The phytohormone abscisic
acid (ABA) plays a critical role in plant response to drought stress. Although ABA signaling …

Understanding the principles of abiotic and biotic stress responses, tolerance and
adaptation remains important in plant physiology research to develop better varieties of crop …

Terrestrial plants must cope with drought stress to survive. Under drought stress, plants
accumulate the phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) by increasing its biosynthesis and …

The karrikin (KAR) receptor and several related signaling components have been identified
by forward genetic screening, but only a few studies have reported on upstream and …

We investigated the role of AtbZIP62, an uncharacterized Arabidopsis bZIP TF, in oxidative,
nitro-oxidative and drought stress conditions using reverse genetics approach. We further …

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is the largest cereal crop grown in Western Canada where
drought during late vegetative and seed filling stages affects plant development and yield …

Recent investigations in Arabidopsis thaliana suggest that SUPPRESSOR of MORE
AXILLARY GROWTH 2 1 (SMAX1) and SMAX1-LIKE2 (SMXL2) are negative regulators of …
