Phosphorus deficiency highly interferes with plant growth and development. Plants respond
to persistent P deficiency by coordinating the expression of genes involved in the alleviation …

The glyoxalase system, involving Glyoxalase I (GlyI) and Glyoxalase II (Gly II), plays a vital
role in abiotic stress tolerance in plants. A novel enzyme Glyoxalase III (Gly III) was found …

Phosphorus (P) is the second-most essential macronutrient required for the growth and
development of plants. It is involved in a number of cellular processes that contribute to the …

The low temperature (LT) conditions that prevail during winter in subtropical regions of India
drastically affect the growth and yield of sugarcane. To identify low-temperature-tolerant …

Aldehyde Dehydrogenases (ALDH), a group of enzymes, are associated with the
