Global warming impacts crop production and threatens food security. Elevated temperatures
are sensed by different cell components. Temperature increases are classified as either mild …

The vast majority of agricultural land undergoes abiotic stress that can significantly reduce
agricultural yields. Understanding the mechanisms of plant defenses against stresses and …

Global warming has increased the frequency of extreme high temperature events. High
temperature is a major abiotic stress that limits the growth and production of plants …

Heat stress (HS) is becoming an increasingly significant problem for food security as global
warming progresses. Recent studies have elucidated the complex transcriptional regulatory …

Abiotic stresses such as high temperature, salinity, and drought adversely affect the survival,
growth, and reproduction of plants. Plants respond to such unfavorable changes through …

Plants heat shock factors (HSFs) are encoded by large gene families with variable structure,
expression, and function. HSFs are components of complex signaling systems that control …

Ten years after the first overview of a complete plant Hsf family was presented for
Arabidopsis thaliana by Nover et al.[1], we compiled data for 252 Hsfs from nine plant …

Crop productivity is directly dependent on the growth and development of plants and their
adaptation during different environmental stresses. Histone acetylation is an epigenetic …

Plant growth and development has to be continuously adjusted to the available resources.
Their optimization requires the integration of signals conveying the plant metabolic status, its …

Plants have evolved a variety of responses to elevated temperatures that minimize damage
and ensure protection of cellular homeostasis. New information about the structure and …
