Plant pathogens are one of the main factors hindering the breeding of cash crops.
Pathogens, including oomycetes, fungus, and bacteria, secrete effectors as invasion …

Phytohormones are endogenously produced organic substances indispensable for
regulating plant growth and yield and also play major role in inducing tolerance to plants …

Abiotic stresses such as drought and salinity are major environmental factors that limit crop
yields. Unraveling the molecular mechanisms underlying abiotic stress resistance is crucial …

Ethylene is essential for many developmental processes and a key mediator of biotic and
abiotic stress responses in plants. The ethylene signaling and response pathway includes …

Jasmonic acid (JA) or methyl jasmonate (MeJA) are master regulators of plant development
and stress response against pathogens and environmental fluctuations. Thus, JA is an …

Genome editing by sequence-specific nucleases (SSNs) has revolutionized biology by
enabling targeted modifications of genomes. Although routine plant genome editing …
