Heat shock proteins 70 (HSP70s) are steadily gaining more attention in the field of plant
biotic interactions. Though their regulation and activity in plants are much less well …

The chloroplast is essential for photosynthesis and the production of hormones and
metabolites. As a consequence, its biogenesis and development needs to be coordinated …

In this study, we performed an integrated physiological and chloroplast proteome analysis of
wheat seedling leaves under salt and osmotic stresses by label-free based quantitative …

Heat stress results in misfolding and aggregation of cellular proteins. Heat shock proteins
(Hsp) enable the cells to maintain proper folding of proteins, both in unstressed as well as …

Homology based gene silencing has emerged as a convenient approach for repressing
expression of genes in order to study their functions. For this purpose, several antisense or …

Drought and heat are among the major abiotic stresses that affect soybean crops worldwide.
During the current investigation, the effect of drought, heat, and drought plus heat stresses …

The proper distribution of proteins between the cytosol and various membrane-bound
compartments is crucial for the functionality of eukaryotic cells. This requires the cooperation …

Chloroplasts are organelles of endosymbiotic origin that perform essential functions in
plants. They contain about 3000 different proteins, the vast majority of which are nucleus …

Arabidopsis thaliana contains 18 genes encoding Hsp70s. This heat shock protein
superfamily is divided into two sub‐families: DnaK and Hsp110/SSE. In order to functionally …

The photosynthetic capacity and efficiency of a crop depends on the biosynthesis of
photosynthetic pigments and chloroplast development. However, little is known about the …
