The plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) plays a pivotal role in a variety of developmental
processes and adaptive stress responses to environmental stimuli in plants. Cellular …

▪ Abstract Many plants increase in freezing tolerance upon exposure to low nonfreezing
temperatures, a phenomenon known as cold acclimation. In this review, recent advances in …

Abscisic acid (ABA) plays an important role in environmental stress responses of higher
plants during vegetative growth. One of the ABA-mediated responses is the induced …

Abstract ABSCISIC ACID–RESPONSIVE ELEMENT BINDING PROTEIN1 (AREB1)(ie,
ABF2) is a basic domain/leucine zipper transcription factor that binds to the abscisic acid …

Plant developmental processes are controlled by both endogenous programs and
environmental stimuli. As a photomorphogenetic mutant, hy5 of Arabidopsis has been …

The phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) plays an essential role in adaptive stress responses.
The hormone regulates, among others, the expression of numerous stress-responsive …

The basic leucine (Leu) zipper (bZIP) proteins compose a family of transcriptional regulators
present exclusively in eukaryotes. The bZIP proteins characteristically harbor a bZIP domain …

A typical plant transcription factor contains, with few exceptions, a DNA‐binding region, an
oligomerization site, a transcription‐regulation domain, and a nuclear localization signal …

Transcription factors of the basic leucine zipper (bZIP) family control important processes in
all eukaryotes. In plants, bZIPs are master regulators of many central developmental and …

The Arabidopsis HY5 gene has been defined genetically as a positive regulator of
photomorphogenesis and recently has been shown to encode a basic leucine zipper type of …
