Leaves are the primary organs for photosynthesis, and as such have a pivotal role for plant
growth and development. Leaf development is a multifactorial and dynamic process …

Fleshy fruits are characterized by having a developmentally and genetically controlled,
highly intricate ripening process, leading to dramatic modifications in fruit size, texture, color …

Drought, which directly affects the yield of crops and trees, is a natural stress with a profound
impact on the economy. Improving water use efficiency (WUE) and drought tolerance are …

JAsmonate ZIM‐domain (JAZ) proteins repress the activity of transcription factors that
execute responses to the plant hormone jasmonoyl‐L‐isoleucine (JA‐Ile). The ZIM protein …

Brassinosteroids (BRs) and methyl jasmonate (MeJA) are known for the regulation of plant
development, and the crosstalk between them is important for plant growth. However, the …

The GATA gene family is one of the most important transcription factors (TFs). It extensively
exists in plants, contributes to diverse biological processes such as the development …

The TIFY gene family, a key plant-specific transcription factor (TF) family, is involved in
diverse biological processes including plant defense and growth regulation. Despite TIFY …

Methyl jasmonate (MeJA) has been documented to mitigate the oxidative stress caused by
abiotic triggers. In this study, we investigated the mechanism through which exogenous …

Plant phenotypic plasticity determines plant adaptation to changing environments and
agricultural productivity. Phytohormones are essential plant signalling molecules regulating …

Background Expansins are proteins that loosen plant cell walls in a pH-dependent manner,
probably by increasing the relative movement among polymers thus causing irreversible …
