Drought, high salinity and low temperature are major abiotic stresses that influence survival,
productivity and geographical distribution of many important crops across the globe. Plants …

Genetic engineering of plants for abiotic stress tolerance is a challenging task because of its
multifarious nature. Comprehensive studies for developing abiotic stress tolerance are in …

Abscisic acid (ABA) and gibberellins (GA s) are plant hormones which antagonistically
mediate numerous physiological processes, and their optimal balance is essential for …

Abstract APETALA2 (AP2) transcription factors (TFs) play very important roles in plant
growth and development and in defense response. Here, we report functional …

Rice yield is greatly affected by environmental stresses such as drought and salinity. In
response to the challenge of producing rice plants tolerant to these stresses, we introduced …

An easy and manageable in vitro screening system for drought tolerance of sunflower
seedlings based on MS media supplemented with polyethylene glycol 6000 was evaluated …

Plant responses to multiple stresses play significant role in identifying the novel candidate
genes regulating the complex molecular mechanisms under abiotic and biotic stress …

Drought decreases crop productivity more than any other type of environmental stress.
Transcription factors (TFs) play crucial roles in regulating plant abiotic stress responses. The …

Plants growing in temperate regions encode several C‐repeat binding factor/dehydration
responsive element binding factors (CBF/DREB1) and the question is whether these …

Cold acclimation is necessary for chrysanthemum to achieve its genetically determined
maximum freezing tolerance, but the underlying physiological and molecular mechanisms …
