worldwide threat. High temperature is a major environmental factor limiting crop productivity …

High temperature has become a global concern because it seriously affects the growth and
reproduction of plants. Exposure of plant cells to high temperatures result in cellular damage …

Cell survival under high temperature conditions involves the activation of heat stress
response (HSR), which in principle is highly conserved among different organisms, but …

The evolution of photosynthesis and its associated metabolic pathways has been crucial to
the successful establishment of plants, but has also challenged plant cells in the form of …
