Plants encounter various abiotic stresses due to their sessile nature which include heavy
metals, salt, drought, nutrient deficiency, light intensity, pesticide contamination, as well as …

Plants are exposed to a wide range of environmental conditions and one of the major forces
that shape the structure and function of plants are temperature stresses, which include low …

Temperature stress is becoming the major concern for plant scientists worldwide due to the
changing climate. The difficulty of climate change is further added considering its precisely …

Rice is a staple food for half of the human population. Unlike other cereals such as wheat
and barley, rice plants are susceptible to cold stress, which often results in decreased …

Rice is globally a major food crop and its production has progressively been affected by
various types of abiotic stresses especially drought, flooding, salinity, heat and cold in most …

Chilling is the main limiting factor for rice production in high-altitude and high-latitude
regions. Many studies have reported the impacts of chilling on leaf photosynthesis and …

The dehydration-responsive element binding protein 1 (DREB1)/C-repeat-binding factor
(CBF) genes are key regulators of cold acclimation and freezing tolerance in the chilling …

Unlike animals that can escape threats, plants must endure and adapt to biotic and abiotic
stresses in their surroundings. One such condition, cold stress, impairs the normal growth …
