Plants cannot move, so they must endure abiotic stresses such as drought, salinity and
extreme temperatures. These stressors greatly limit the distribution of plants, alter their …

Auxin has always been at the forefront of research in plant physiology and development.
Since the earliest contemplations by Julius von Sachs and Charles Darwin, more than a …

Drought stress substantially reduces the productivity of apple plants and severely restricts
the development of apple industry. Malus sieversii, wild apples with excellent drought …

Seeds are a vital source of calories for humans and a unique stage in the life cycle of
flowering plants. During seed germination, the embryo undergoes major developmental …

Summary Indole‐3‐acetic acid (IAA) controls a plethora of developmental processes. Thus,
regulation of its concentration is of great relevance for plant performance. Cellular IAA …

Climate change is increasingly affecting agriculture through droughts, high salinity in soils,
heatwaves, and floodings, which put intense pressure on crops. This results in yield losses …

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) promotes plant tolerance against various environmental cues, and d‐
cysteine desulfhydrase (DCD) is an enzymatic source of H2S to enhance abiotic stress …

Roots are important plant organs for the uptake of water and nutrient elements. Plant root
development is finely regulated by endogenous signals and environmental cues, which …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus (AMF), forming symbiosis with most terrestrial plants, strongly
modulates root system architecture (RSA), which is the main characteristic of root in soil, to …

Plants have evolved robust adaptive mechanisms to withstand the ever-changing
environment. Tightly regulated distribution of the hormone auxin throughout the plant body …
