Abiotic stress is one of the severe stresses of environment that lowers the growth and yield
of any crop even on irrigated land throughout the world. A major phytohormone abscisic acid …

In field conditions, plants are often simultaneously exposed to multiple biotic and abiotic
stresses resulting in substantial yield loss. Plants have evolved various physiological and …

Climatic conditions are key determinants of plant growth, whether at the scale of temperature
regulation of the cell cycle or at the scale of the geographic limits for a particular species …

In nature, plants are simultaneously exposed to a combination of biotic and abiotic stresses
that limit crop yields. Only recently, researchers have started understanding the molecular …

Plant responses to different stresses are highly complex and involve changes at the
transcriptome, cellular, and physiological levels. Recent evidence shows that plants respond …

As sessile organisms, plants are constantly challenged by a dynamic growing environment.
This includes fluctuations in temperature, water availability, light levels, and changes in …

Plant growth and response to environmental cues are largely governed by phytohormones.
The plant hormones ethylene, jasmonic acid, and salicylic acid (SA) play a central role in the …

Until recently, most studies on the role of hormones in plant-pathogen interactions focused
on salicylic acid (SA), jasmonic acid (JA), and ethylene (ET). It is now clear that pathogen …

The constant struggle between plants and microbes has driven the evolution of multiple
defense strategies in the host as well as offense strategies in the pathogen. To defend …

Considering global climate change, the incidence of combined drought and heat stress is
likely to increase in the future and will considerably influence plant-pathogen interactions …
