Increasing the vulnerability of plants especially crops to a wide range of cold stress reduces
plant growth, development, yield production, and plant distribution. Cold stress induces …

Plant leaves offer an exclusive windowpane to uncover the changes in organs, tissues, and
cells as they advance towards the process of senescence and death. Drought-induced leaf …

Plants accumulate the lipids phosphatidic acid (PA), diacylglycerol (DAG), and
triacylglycerol (TAG) during cold stress, but how plants balance the levels of these lipids to …

Most organisms adjust their development according to the environmental conditions. For the
majority, this implies the sensing of alterations to cell walls caused by different cues. Despite …

Horticultural commodities suffer chilling injury following exposure to extremely low
temperatures, which results in visible symptoms and considerable quality loss. Therefore, it …

Peach fruit is prone to chilling injury (CI) during long-term low temperature (LT) storage, and
develops protective mechanisms against LT stress. This study revealed that 4° C storage …

Programmed cell death (PCD) is a genetically controlled process that leads to cell suicide in
both eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms. In plants PCD occurs during development …

Plants have evolved a two‐branched innate immune system to detect and cope with
pathogen attack, which are initiated by cell‐surface and intracellular immune receptors …

Plants are nonmotile life forms that are constantly exposed to changing environmental
conditions during the course of their life cycle. Fluctuations in environmental conditions can …

Cold stress, including freezing stress and chilling stress, is one of the major environmental
factors that limit the growth and productivity of plants. As a temperate dicot model plant …
