Dehydration proteins (dehydrins) are group 2 members of the late embryogenesis abundant
(LEA) protein family. The protein architecture of dehydrins can be described by the presence …

Water limitation affects all types of organisms at some stage during their life cycle; therefore,
many strategies have been selected through evolution to cope with water deficit, including …

Since the publication of the third edition of the Handbook of Plant and Crop Stress,
continuous discoveries in the fields of plant and crop environmental stresses and their …

Research into late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) proteins has been ongoing for more than
20 years but, although there is a strong association of LEA proteins with abiotic stress …

In response to various environmental stresses, plants have evolved a wide range of defense
mechanisms, resulting in the overexpression of a series of stress-responsive genes. Among …

Drought is a major abiotic stress factor limiting crop production. Identification of genetic
factors involved in plant responses to drought stress will provide a solid foundation to …

ERD10 and ERD14 (for early response to dehydration) proteins are members of the
dehydrin family that accumulate in response to abiotic environmental stresses, such as high …

Dehydrins (DHNs) are part of a large group of highly hydrophilic proteins known as LEA
(Late Embryogenesis Abundant). They were originally identified as group II of the LEA …

This review deals with recent data on the structure and biochemical properties of dehydrins,
proteins that are normally synthesized in maturating seeds during their desiccation, and also …

Dehydrins are glycine‐rich, hydrophilic, heat‐stable proteins and are generally induced in
response to a wide array of environmental stresses. In previous research (Artlip et al. 1997 …
