Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) modules play key roles in the transduction of
environmental and developmental signals through phosphorylation of downstream signaling …

Plants have to counteract unavoidable stress-caused anomalies such as oxidative stress to
sustain their lives and serve heterotrophic organisms including humans. Among major …

Water deficit and salinity, especially under high light intensity or in combination with other
stresses, disrupt photosynthesis and increase photorespiration, altering the normal …

The increasing seriousness of salinization aggravates the food, population and
environmental issues. Ameliorating the salt-resistance of plants especially the crops is the …

Although abscisic acid (ABA) is an important hormone that regulates seed dormancy,
stomatal closure, plant development, as well as responses to environmental stimuli, the …

Photosynthesis, pathogen infection, and plant defense are three important biological
processes that have been investigated separately for decades. Photosynthesis generates …

Drought and high salinity are two major environmental factors that significantly limit the
productivity of agricultural crops worldwide. WRKY transcription factors play essential roles …

Senescence represents a fundamental process of late leaf development. Transcription
factors (TF s) play an important role for expression reprogramming during senescence; …

The production of H2O2 is critical for brassinosteroid (BR)-and abscisic acid (ABA)-induced
stress tolerance in plants. In this study, the relationship between BR and ABA in the …

Background Salinity-alkalinity stress is one of the major abiotic stresses affecting plant
growth and development. γ-Aminobutyrate (GABA) is a non-protein amino acid that functions …
