Ethylene is a gaseous phytohormone and the first of this hormone class to be discovered. It
is the simplest olefin gas and is biosynthesized by plants to regulate plant development …

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

Comprehensive and systematic transcriptome profiling provides valuable insight into
biological and developmental processes that occur throughout the life cycle of a plant. We …

The central role of translation in modulating gene activity has long been recognized, yet the
systematic exploration of quantitative changes in translation at a genome-wide scale in …

The main functions of plant roots are water and nutrient uptake, soil anchorage, and
interaction with soil-living biota. Root hairs, single cell tubular extensions of root epidermal …

Plants, like other eukaryotes, rely on proteolysis to control the abundance of key regulatory
proteins and enzymes. Strikingly, genome-wide studies have revealed that the ubiquitin-26S …

Although the roles of ethylene in plant response to salinity and other stresses have been
extensively studied, there are still some obscure points left to be clarified. Generally, in …

Plant growth and development is regulated by a structurally unrelated collection of small
molecules called plant hormones. During the last 15 years the number of known plant …

Numerous endogenous and environmental signals regulate the intricate and highly
orchestrated process of plant senescence. Ethylene is a well-known inducer of senescence …

Plants have evolved sophisticated mechanisms for integration of endogenous and
exogenous signals to adapt to the changing environment. Both the phytohormones …
