Plant hormones are signalling compounds that regulate crucial aspects of growth,
development and environmental stress responses. Abiotic stresses, such as drought …

Drought is one of the major constraints to rain-fed agricultural production, especially under
climate change conditions. Plants evolved an array of adaptive strategies that perceive …

Protein kinases are major players in various signal transduction pathways. Understanding
the molecular mechanisms behind plant responses to biotic and abiotic stresses has …

The plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) plays a central role in the regulation of stomatal
movements under water‐deficit conditions. The identification of ABA receptors and the ABA …

We present unresolved questions in plant abiotic stress biology as posed by 15 research
groups with expertise spanning eco-physiology to cell and molecular biology. Common …

Alternative splicing, which generates multiple transcripts from the same gene, is an
important modulator of gene expression that can increase proteome diversity and regulate …

Adverse environmental conditions trigger responses in plants that promote stress tolerance
and survival at the expense of growth. However, little is known of how stress signalling …

Abiotic stresses, including drought and salinity, trigger a complex osmotic-stress and
abscisic acid (ABA) signal transduction network. The core ABA signalling components are …

The phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) is crucial for plant responses to environmental
challenges. The SNF1-regulated protein kinase 2s (SnRK2s) are key components in ABA …

As a consequence of a sessile lifestyle, plants are continuously exposed to changing
environmental conditions and often life-threatening stresses caused by exposure to …
