Plant responses to different stresses are highly complex and involve changes at the
transcriptome, cellular, and physiological levels. Recent evidence shows that plants respond …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are an extensive class of endogenous, small RNA molecules that sit
at the heart of regulating gene expression in multiple developmental and signalling …

The microRNAs (miRNAs) are small (20–24 nt) sized, non-coding, single stranded
riboregulator RNAs abundant in higher organisms. Recent findings have established that …

Environmental pollution, global warming and climate change exacerbate the impact of biotic
and abiotic stresses on plant growth and yield. Plants have evolved sophisticated defence …

As sessile organisms, plants are constantly challenged by a dynamic growing environment.
This includes fluctuations in temperature, water availability, light levels, and changes in …

The discovery of microRNAs (miRNAs) as gene regulators has led to a paradigm shift in the
understanding of post-transcriptional gene regulation in plants and animals. miRNAs have …

Drought is one of the most serious production constraint for world agriculture and is
projected to worsen with anticipated climate change. Inter-disciplinary scientists have been …

Drought tolerance is an important quantitative trait with multipart phenotypes that are often
further complicated by plant phenology. Different types of environmental stresses, such as …

Plants growing in their natural habitats are often challenged simultaneously by multiple
stress factors, both abiotic and biotic. Research has so far been limited to responses to …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small non-coding RNAs that have recently emerged as
important regulators of gene expression, mainly through cleavage and/or translation …
