Breeding for multi‐stress resilience in crops: Myth or possibility?

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Climate change threatens millions of farmers worldwide by exposing crops to multiple concurrent or sequential environmental stresses such as drought, heat, waterlogging, and diseases. Although crops have long been selected under naturally occurring multi‐stress conditions, breeding pipelines largely focus on optimal or single‐stress environments ...

The interaction of calcium with ethylene and abscisic acid in the pathogenesis of wheat seedlings caused by Fusarium culmorum

Acta Agrobotanica, 2013
The influence of ethylene and abscisic acid on the infection of wheat seedlings by Fusarium culmorum depending on the content of calcium in the medium was investigated.

Gene turnover in the common ancestor of all C4 grasses

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Understanding how plants evolve more efficient photosynthesis is important in a warming world where improving crop productivity and resilience is a global priority. By generating the first reference genomes for an early‐diverging group of grasses called the Aristidoideae, we were able to reconstruct the genetic makeup of the last common ancestor of all

Drought stress modulates indirect defense via bottom‐up effects in tomato and wheat

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Different water regimes can have a significant impact on plant morphology and defense pathways in tomato and wheat, triggering multiple olfactory choices in biocontrol agents of key insect pests. These findings could be used to implement biocontrol strategies within the IPM context under a changing climate scenario.

Salt glands in exo‐recretohalophytes: Development, physiological functions, and prospects for improving crop salt tolerance

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review examines salt glands in exo‐recretohalophytes, in which epidermal stem cells differentiate into unicellular, bicellular, or multicellular salt glands. Salt ions are transported to the leaves via the transpiration stream and enter salt glands through symplastic and apoplastic pathways. Finally, salt glands actively secrete salt ions from the

Roles of Abscisic Acid in Fruit Ripening

Walailak Journal of Science and Technology, 2012
Abscisic acid (ABA) is a plant growth regulator, and it plays a variety of important roles throughout a plant’s life cycle. These roles include seed development and dormancy, plant response to environmental stresses, and fruit ripening. ABA concentration

Tree growth response and adaptation to climate change and climate extremes: From canopy to stem

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes the responses and adaptations of tree growth, including canopy phenology, intra‐annual wood formation dynamics, and annual stem growth, to climate change and climate extremes. It highlights key knowledge gaps for future research to support sustainable forest management and enhance forest carbon storage under ongoing climate ...

The multidimensional regulation roles and mechanisms of calcium in fruit quality

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review explores how calcium signaling molecule integrates plant hormones, environmental cues, and developmental signals to influence external fruit traits, internal nutritional properties, and physiological disorders. ABSTRACT Calcium (Ca2+), a dual‐functional mineral that serves both as an essential structural factor and a signaling molecule ...

Indolilacetic (IAA) and abscisic (ABA) acids by growing process of maize stem internodes (Zea mays L.)

Біологічні студії, 2010
Published data about phytohormonal regulation of growth processes of the stem were analyzed. We investigated the content of free and bound forms of indolilacetic and abscisic acids in the internodes of growing maize stem on the stage of five and seven ...
