Perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) is an important turfgrass and gramineous forage
widely grown in temperate regions around the world. However, its perennial nature leads to …

Members of the ubiquitin-like protein family are known for their ability to modify substrates by
covalent conjugation. The highly conserved ubiquitin relative UBL5/Hub1, however, is …

Salt stress is a major abiotic stress factor affecting crop production, and understanding of the
response mechanisms of seed germination to salt stress can help to improve crop tolerance …

Ubiquitin like protein 5 (UBL5) interacts with other proteins to regulate their function but
differs from ubiquitin and other UBLs because it does not form covalent conjugates …

Lolium perenne L.(perennial ryegrass) is the most important pasture grass species in
temperate regions of the world. However, its growth is restricted in summer dry …

Dehydration responsive element binding proteins are transcription factors of the plant-
specific AP2 family, many of which contribute to abiotic stress responses in several plant …

Multiple stress response genes are controlled by transcription factors in a coordinated
manner; therefore, these factors can be used for molecular plant breeding. CBF1/DREB1B, a …

Cytochrome P450s (CYPs) play crucial roles in regulating plant growth, development, and
stress tolerance. In this study, a perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) CYP gene …

Accurate pre-mRNA splicing is needed for correct gene expression and relies on faithful
splice site recognition. Here, we show that the ubiquitin-like protein Hub1 binds to the DEAD …

Crop yield, survival, and biomass production are negatively influenced by abiotic stresses.
Due to multigenic nature, the molecular basis of abiotic stress tolerance is difficult to …
