Water-limiting conditions can severely affect rice yield. Therefore, increasing plant tolerance
to water stress is a priority for many rice breeding programs. However, improving rice …

Cupin superfamily proteins have extensive functions. Their members are not only involved in
the development of plants but also responded to various stresses. Whereas, the research on …

Germin (GER) and germin-like proteins (GLPs) play an important role in various plant
processes. Zea mays contains 26 germin-like protein genes (ZmGLPs) located on …

DNA methylation at cytosine residues governs the regulation of stress responsive genes in
plant for self-protection against various environmental abiotic stresses. Here, we analyzed …

The absence of adequate moisture resulting from drought poses a significant threat to both
the viability and productivity of soybean cultivation. Genetic variation in common soybeans …

Rice is susceptible to cold temperatures, especially during the seedling stage. Despite
extensive research into the cold tolerance mechanisms of rice, the number of cloned genes …

Cupin_1 domain-containing proteins (CDPs) are ubiquitously present in higher plants,
which are known to play essential roles in various biological processes. In this study, we …

Chlorine dioxide (ClO 2) is commonly used to reduce microbial contamination of horticultural
produce, but research on physiology and metabolism of treated products is limited. In this …

Cupin proteins are involved in plant growth and development as well as in response to
various stresses. Here, a total of 173 Cupin genes were identified in Brassica napus, and …

The threat to world food security posed by drought is ever increasing. Tef [Eragrostis tef
(Zucc.) Trotter] is an allotetraploid cereal crop that is a staple food for a large population in …
