Plant stress signalling: understanding and exploiting plant–plant interactions
Biochemical Society Transactions, 2003 When plants are attacked by insects, volatile chemical signals can be released, not only from the damaged parts, but also systemically from other parts of the plant and this continues after cessation of feeding by the insect. These signals are perceived by olfactory sensory mechanisms in both the herbivorous insects and their parasites.

Modulation of nitrosative stress by S-nitrosoglutathione reductase is critical for thermotolerance and plant growth in arabidopsis [PDF]
, 2008 Nitric oxide (NO) is a key signaling molecule in plants. This analysis of Arabidopsis thaliana HOT5 (sensitive to hot temperatures), which is required for thermotolerance, uncovers a role of NO in thermotolerance and plant development.

Reduction of photosynthetic sensitivity in response to abiotic stress in tomato is mediated by a new generation plant activator [PDF]
, 2013 Background: Yield losses as a result of abiotic stress factors present a significant challenge for the future of global food production. While breeding technologies provide potential to combat negative stress-mediated outcomes over time, interventions ...

Plant responses to limited aeration: Advances and future challenges [PDF]
, 2023 Limited aeration that is caused by tissue geometry, diffusion barriers, high elevation, or a flooding event poses major challenges to plants and is often, but not exclusively, associated with low oxygen.

Essentiality of nickel in plants: a role in plant stresses [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015 The element Ni is considered an essential plant micronutrient because it acts as an activator of the enzyme urease. Recent studies have shown that Ni may activate an isoform of glyoxalase I, which performs an important step in the degradation of methylglyoxal (MG), a potent cytotoxic compound naturally produced by cellular metabolism.

The complete chloroplast genome of an annual halophyte herb, Suaeda glauca (Amaranthaceae)
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019 The complete chloroplast genome (plastome) of Suaeda glauca, an annual halophytic herb, was determined in this study. The plastome was 149,807 bp in size, containing a large single-copy region (82,162 bp), a small single-copy region (18,191 bp), and two ...
