The timing of flowering affects the success of sexual reproduction. This developmental event
also determines crop yield, biomass, and longevity. Therefore, this mechanism has been …

High temperatures causing heat stress disturb cellular homeostasis and impede growth and
development in plants. Extensive agricultural losses are attributed to heat stress, often in …

Cryptochromes (CRYs) are evolutionarily conserved photolyase-like photoreceptors found
in almost all species, including mammals. CRYs regulate transcription by modulating the …

Abstract Changes in light quality indicative of competition for this essential resource
influence plant growth and developmental transitions; however, little is known about …

The alternative splicing of select genes is an important mechanism to regulate responses to
endogenous and environmental signals in plants. However, the role of alternative splicing in …

In plants, environmental conditions such as temperature affect survival, growth, and fitness,
particularly during key stages such as seedling growth and reproduction. To survive and …

Efficient mRNA splicing is a prerequisite for protein biosynthesis and the eukaryotic splicing
machinery is evolutionarily conserved among species of various phyla. At its catalytic core …

Phenotypic plasticity is the phenomenon that one particular genotype produces different
phenotypes under different environmental conditions, but its underlying molecular and …
