Roles of C‐Repeat Binding Factors‐Dependent Signaling Pathway in Jasmonates‐Mediated Improvement of Chilling Tolerance of Postharvest Horticultural Commodities

open access: yesJournal of Food Quality, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
C‐repeat binding factor‐ (CBF‐) dependent signaling pathway is proposed to be a key responder to low temperature stress in plant. Jasmonates (JAs), the endogenous signal molecules in plant, participate in plant defense against (a)biotic stresses; however, the mechanism has not been fully clarified so far.
