Due to the present scenario of climate change, plants have to evolve strategies to survive
and perform under a plethora of biotic and abiotic stresses, which restrict plant productivity …

Crop yield reduction as a consequence of increasingly severe climatic events threatens
global food security. Genetic loci that ensure productivity in challenging environments exist …

Stomata control the flow of gases between plants and the atmosphere. This review is
centered on stomatal responses to elevated CO2 concentration and considers other key …

It is well known that plant photosynthesis and respiration are two fundamental and crucial
physiological processes, while the critical role of the antioxidant system in response to …

Abiotic stresses, such as salt and heat stress, coexist in some regions of the world and can
have a significant impact on agricultural plant biomass and production. Rice is a valuable …

This review considers the recent progress on the role of heat shock proteins (HSPs), as well
as transcription factors of heat shock proteins genes (HSFs) in protecting plants from …

Heat stress (HS) is the major constraint to crop productivity worldwide. The objective of the
present experiment was to select the tolerant and sensitive genotype (s) on the basis of …

Unpredicted variability in climate change on the planet is associated with frequent extreme
high-temperature events impacting crop yield globally. Wheat is an economically and …

The current study was devoted to assessing the impact of exogenous ascorbic acid (AsA) in
inducing systemic thermotolerance against acute heat stress in tomato (Solanum …

Plants code for a multitude of heat stress transcription factors (Hsfs). Three of them act as
central regulators of heat stress (HS) response in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum). HsfA1a …
