Flavonoids are characterized as the low molecular weight polyphenolic compounds
universally distributed in planta. They are a chemically varied group of secondary …

Reduction of plant growth, yield and quality due to diverse environmental constrains along
with climate change significantly limit the sustainable production of horticultural crops. In this …

Suboptimal availability of water limits plant growth, development, and performance. Drought
is one of the leading factors responsible for worldwide crop yield reduction. In the future …

High light (HL) is a common environmental stress directly imposes photoinhibition on the
photosynthesis apparatus. Breeding plants for tolerance against HL is therefore highly …

Low temperatures are a substantial limitation in the geographic distribution of warm-season
crops such as cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.). Tolerance to low temperatures varies among …

Plants deploy molecular, physiological, and anatomical adaptations to cope with long-term
water-deficit exposure, and some of these processes are controlled by circadian clocks …

GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) and melatonin are endogenous compounds that enhance
plant responses to abiotic stresses. The response of Vicia faba to different stressors (salinity …

Plant U-box (PUB) E3 ubiquitin ligases play essential roles in many biological processes
and stress responses, but little is known about their functions in sorghum (Sorghum bicolor …

Acclimation to the privileged lighting environment is an important step for the survival of
newly developed horticultural plants such as transplants, tissue culture-generated plants …

Climate change, particularly drought and heat stress, may slash agricultural productivity by
25.7% by 2080, with maize being the hardest hit. Therefore, unraveling the molecular nature …
