Polyamines and abiotic stress tolerance in plants [PDF]
Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2010 Environmental stresses including climate change, especially global warming, are severely affecting plant growth and productivity worldwide. It has been estimated that two-thirds of the yield potential of major crops are routinely lost due to the unfavorable environmental factors.

Melatonin-Mediated Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Plants
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Melatonin is a multi-functional molecule that is ubiquitous in all living organisms. Melatonin performs essential roles in plant stress tolerance; its application can reduce the harmful effects of abiotic stresses. Plant melatonin biosynthesis, which usually occurs within chloroplasts, and its related metabolic pathways have been extensively ...

Stress-induced senescence and plant tolerance to abiotic stress [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2017 Senescence is an age-dependent process, ultimately leading to plant death, that in annual crop plants overlaps with the reproductive stage of development. Research on the molecular and biochemical mechanisms of leaf senescence has revealed a multi-layered regulatory network operating to control age-dependent processes. Abiotic stress-induced senescence

Melatonin and Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Crop Plants
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023 Increasing food demand by the growing human population and declining crop productivity due to climate change affect global food security. To meet the challenges, developing improved crops that can tolerate abiotic stresses is a priority. Melatonin in plants, also known as phytomelatonin, is an active component of the various cellular mechanisms that ...

Ion Transporters and Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Plants [PDF]
ISRN Molecular Biology, 2012 Adaptation of plants to salt stress requires cellular ion homeostasis involving net intracellular Na+ and Cl− uptake and subsequent vacuolar compartmentalization without toxic ion accumulation in the cytosol. Sodium ions can enter the cell through several low- and high-affinity K+ carriers.

Glycinebetaine and abiotic stress tolerance in plants [PDF]
Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2011 The accumulation of osmolytes like glycinebetaine (GB) in cell is known to protect organisms against abiotic stresses via osmoregulation or osmoprotection. Transgenic plants engineered to produce GB accumulate very low concentration of GB, which might not be sufficient for osmoregulation.

Circadian regulation of abiotic stress tolerance in plants [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015 Extremes of temperatures, drought and salinity cause widespread crop losses throughout the world and impose severe limitations on the amount of land that can be used for agricultural purposes. Hence, there is an urgent need to develop crops that perform better under such abiotic stress conditions.

ROS Homeostasis in Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Plants [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020 Climate change-induced abiotic stress results in crop yield and production losses. These stresses result in changes at the physiological and molecular level that affect the development and growth of the plant. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) is formed at high levels due to abiotic stress within different organelles, leading to cellular damage.

Abscisic Acid and Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Crop Plants [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016 Abiotic stress is a primary threat to fulfill the demand of agricultural production to feed the world in coming decades. Plants reduce growth and development process during stress conditions, which ultimately affect the yield. In stress conditions, plants develop various stress mechanism to face the magnitude of stress challenges, although that is not ...

Citric Acid-Mediated Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Plants [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021 Several recent studies have shown that citric acid/citrate (CA) can confer abiotic stress tolerance to plants. Exogenous CA application leads to improved growth and yield in crop plants under various abiotic stress conditions. Improved physiological outcomes are associated with higher photosynthetic rates, reduced reactive oxygen species, and better ...
