The ultrastructure of chilling stress [PDF]

open access: yesPlant, Cell & Environment, 2000
ABSTRACTChilling injury to crop plants was first described 70 years ago and has been systematically investigated with electron microscopy since the late 1960s. Chloroplasts are the first and most severely impacted organelle. Thylakoids swell and distort, starch granules disappear, and a peripheral reticulum (vesicles arising from inner membrane of ...

Melatonin effects in enhancing chilling stress tolerance of pepper

open access: yesScientia Horticulturae, 2021
Abstract Chilling stress is a type of low temperature stress that occurs when plants are exposed to temperatures below optimum but above 0 °C. It determines the geographical distribution of crop species that are of tropic and sub-tropic origin and causes huge losses every year.

Oxidative Stress Associated with Chilling Injury in Immature Fruit: Postharvest Technological and Biotechnological Solutions [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2017
Immature, vegetable-like fruits are produced by crops of great economic importance, including cucumbers, zucchini, eggplants and bell peppers, among others. Because of their high respiration rates, associated with high rates of dehydration and metabolism,

Redox Signaling and CBF-Responsive Pathway are Involved in Salicylic Acid-Improved Photosynthesis and Growth under Chilling Stress in Watermelon

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2016
Salicylic acid (SA) plays an important role in plant response to abiotic stresses. This study investigated the potential role of SA in alleviating the adverse effects of chilling stress on photosynthesis and growth in watermelon (Citrullus lanatus ...

Acceleration of Carbon Fixation in Chilling-Sensitive Banana under Mild and Moderate Chilling Stresses [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
Banana is one of the most important food and fruit crops in the world and its growth is ceasing at 10–17 °C. However, the mechanisms determining the tolerance of banana to mild (>15 °C) and moderate chilling (10–15 °C) are elusive. Furthermore, the biochemical controls over the photosynthesis in tropical plant species at low temperatures above 10 °C

Tapping into the maize root microbiome to identify bacteria that promote growth under chilling conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Background When maize (Zea mays L.) is grown in the Northern hemisphere, its development is heavily arrested by chilling temperatures, especially at the juvenile phase. As some endophytes are beneficial for plants under stress conditions, we analyzed the

The effects of rising atmospheric carbon dioxide on shoot-root nitrogen and water signaling. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Terrestrial higher plants are composed of roots and shoots, distinct organs that conduct complementary functions in dissimilar environments. For example, roots are responsible for acquiring water and nutrients such as inorganic nitrogen from the soil ...

Exogenous Ascorbic Acid Induced Chilling Tolerance in Tomato Plants Through Modulating Metabolism, Osmolytes, Antioxidants, and Transcriptional Regulation of Catalase and Heat Shock Proteins

open access: yesPlants, 2020
Chilling, a sort of cold stress, is a typical abiotic ecological stress that impacts the development as well as the growth of crops. The present study was carried to investigate the role of ascorbic acid root priming in enhancing tolerance of tomato ...

Down-regulation of MeMYB2 leads to anthocyanin accumulation and increases chilling tolerance in cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz)

open access: yesCrop Journal, 2023
Chilling-induced accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is harmful to plants, which usually produce anthocyanins to scavenge ROS as protection from chilling stress.
