Plant Responses to Simultaneous Biotic and Abiotic Stress: Molecular Mechanisms
Plants are constantly confronted to both abiotic and biotic stresses that seriously reduce their productivity. Plant responses to these stresses are complex and involve numerous physiological, molecular, and cellular adaptations.

Advances in the Role of Dark Septate Endophytes in the Plant Resistance to Abiotic and Biotic Stresses [PDF]
Endophytic fungi have been studied in recent decades to understand how they interact with their hosts, the types of relationships they establish, and the potential effects of this interaction. Dark septate endophytes (DSE) are isolated from healthy plants and form melanised structures in the roots, including inter- and intracellular hyphae and ...

Overexpression of VOZ2 confers biotic stress tolerance but decreases abiotic stress resistance in Arabidopsis [PDF]
VOZ (vascular plant one zinc-finger protein) is a plant specific one-zinc finger type transcriptional activator, which is highly conserved through land plant evolution. We have previously shown that loss-of-function mutations in VOZ1 and VOZ2 showed increased cold and drought stress tolerances whereas decreased biotic stress resistance in Arabidopsis ...

Biotic Stress Resistance in Sweet Potato: Mechanisms, Perspectives, and Sustainable Production Strategies [PDF]
Food security is increasingly threatened by climate change and population growth. Sweet potato has become a crucial crop for ensuring food security due to its adaptability to marginal lands and high yield potential. However, its sustainable production is

Combined biotic and abiotic stress resistance in tomato [PDF]
AbstractAbiotic and biotic stress factors are the major constrains for the realization of crop yield potential. As climate change progresses, the spread and intensity of abiotic as well as biotic stressors is expected to increase, with increased probability of crops being exposed to both types of stress.

Identification of Arabidopsis candidate genes in response to biotic and abiotic stresses using comparative microarrays. [PDF]
Plants have evolved with intricate mechanisms to cope with multiple environmental stresses. To adapt with biotic and abiotic stresses, plant responses involve changes at the cellular and molecular levels. The current study was designed to investigate the
