Reactive oxygen species (ROS, partial reduction or derivatives of free radicals) are highly
reactive, dangerous and can cause oxidative cell death. In addition to their role as toxic by …

The phytohormone auxin acts as an important signaling molecule having regulatory
functions during the growth and development of plants. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are …

Novel stress tolerance strategies, such as heat and drought priming, are widely used in
plants to increase tolerance to subsequent stresses. To date, it is still not known whether …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are initially considered to be toxic byproducts of aerobic
metabolic reactions. However, increasing evidence has shown that they have emerged as …

As crucial stages in the plant ontogeny, germination and seedling establishment under
adverse conditions greatly determine staple crop growth and productivity. In the context of …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are the key players in regulating developmental processes
of plants. Plants have evolved a large array of gene families to facilitate the ROS-regulated …

Adaptation to unfavorable abiotic stresses is one of the key processes in the evolution of
plants. Calcium (Ca2+) signaling is characterized by the spatiotemporal pattern of Ca2+ …

Plants are vital components of our ecosystem for a balanced life here on Earth, as a source
of both food and oxygen for survival. Recent space exploration has extended the field of …

In monocarpic plants, stem cells are fated to die. However, the potential mechanism of stem
cell death has remained elusive. Here, we reveal that the levels of two forms of reactive …

Nitric oxide (NO) is a versatile signal molecule that mediates environmental and hormonal
signals orchestrating plant development. NO may act via reversible S-nitrosation of proteins …
