The identification and characterization of cis-regulatory DNA sequences and how they
function to coordinate responses to developmental and environmental cues is of paramount …

Plant hormones are essential for regulating the interactions between plants and their
complex biotic and abiotic environments. Each hormone initiates a specific molecular …

Temperature influences the seasonal growth and geographical distribution of plants. Heat or
cold stress occur when temperatures exceed or fall below the physiological optimum ranges …

Being continuously exposed to variable environmental conditions, plants produce
phytohormones to react quickly and specifically to these changes. The phytohormone …

INTRODUCTION All living organisms have evolved homeostatic mechanisms to control their
mineral nutrient and trace element content (ionomes). In plant roots and animal guts, these …

The cistrome is the complete set of transcription factor (TF) binding sites (cis-elements) in an
organism, while an epicistrome incorporates tissue-specific DNA chemical modifications and …

Ethylene induces anthocyanin biosynthesis in most fruits, including apple (Malus domestica)
and plum (Prunus spp.). By contrast, ethylene inhibits anthocyanin biosynthesis in pear …

Timely perception of adverse environmental changes is critical for survival. Dynamic
changes in gases are important cues for plants to sense environmental perturbations, such …

Plants often live in adverse environmental conditions and are exposed to various stresses,
such as heat, cold, heavy metals, salt, radiation, poor lighting, nutrient deficiency, drought, or …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) regulate plant growth and development. ROS are kept at
low levels in cells to prevent oxidative damage, allowing them to be effective signaling …
