Abstract Background Usually Multiple Amino acids Move In and Out Transporters (UMAMITs), belonging to the MtN21/EamA-like/UMAMIT superfamily, play vital roles in amino acid transport, nodule formation, and nitrogen fixat...

The members of the homologous homeodomain-leucine zipper (HDZ) family of transcription factors play important roles in the ability of plants to cope with adverse conditions. In this study, we analyzed the genome of the C...

Biotic and abiotic stressors commonly co-occur in plant communities and influence interactions between plants. However, their combined effects on plant interactions have not been widely studied and are still unclear. Her...

The yield of maize (Zea mays L.) crops depends on their ability to intercept sunlight throughout the growing cycle, transform this energy into biomass and allocate it to the kernels. Abiotic stresses affect these eco-phy...

Plants frequently encounter diverse abiotic stresses, which require precise transcriptional regulation to maintain basic survival plasticity. The BES1 transcription factor family, a key component of brassinosteroid (BR) ...

Abstract Psammochloa villosa is a perennial herbaceous plant belonging to tribe Stipeae (Poaceae). It is mainly distributed in the arid and sandy Inner Mongolia Plateau and adjacent areas, demonstrating remarkable resili...

ABSTRACT Jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus) thrives in subtropical and tropical areas but is vulnerable to winter cold stress. The myeloblastosis (MYB) transcription factor family plays an important role in plant biolo...

Understanding genotypic variation in wheat under multiple abiotic stresses is critical for sustaining productivity under climate changing scenarios. The study evaluated twenty elite Triticum aestivum L. genotypes, includ...

Abstract Background The Na⁺/H⁺ antiporter (NHX) family plays a crucial role in regulating intracellular Na and H homeostasis in plants. This study conducted a genome-wide analysis and expression assessment of peanut ...

ABSTRACT In terrestrial plants, drought stress activates abscisic acid (ABA) signaling in guard cells, prompting stomatal closure to reduce water loss. Stomatal closure is accompanied by reorganization of the microfilame...

Abstract Ornithine lipids (OLs) are phosphorus-free membrane lipids present in many bacteria, but absent from eukaryotes and archaea. Three pathways for OL synthesis have been reported to date. Conditions that induce OL ...

Ultraviolet (UV) radiation has been considered a deleterious agent that living organisms must avoid. However, many of the acclimation changes elicited by UV induce a wide range of positive effects in plant physiology thr...

IntroductionClimate change is increasing the co-occurrence of heat, drought, and soil salinization in Mediterranean agroecosystems, yet their interactive effects on crop physiology remain poorly understood. We investigat...

Abstract The MYB transcription factor family is one of the largest and most functionally diverse groups of transcription factors in angiosperms. Members of this family participate in a wide array of biological processes,...

Biotic and abiotic stresses reduce crop yields, yet existing image‑based diagnostic models are often crop‑specific, computationally intensive, and poorly interpretable. This study present: (i) a multi-crop diagnostic...

Shallots (Allium cepa L.) is a plant that requires sufficient water and is susceptible to drought stress. The use of biofertilizer is employed because it contains microorganisms to enhance nutrient availability and assis...

The integration of underutilised orphan crops into food systems can reduce the reliance on major crops for global food security and support adaptation to climate change. Major crops are increasingly susceptible to climat...

Abstract Heritage crops are recognized for their genetic diversity and naturally elevated antioxidant profiles, including polyphenols, flavonoids, and carotenoids. However, their nutritional value is highly sensitive to ...

Raffinose (Raf) protects plant cells during seed desiccation and under different abiotic stress conditions. The biosynthesis of Raf starts with the production of UDP-galactose by UDP-sugar pyrophosphorylase (USPPase) and...

Abstract Background Soil salinization severely restricts the growth and forage yield of Medicago sativa (alfalfa), a globally critical leguminous forage crop, yet the regulatory mechanisms governing its salt tolerance re...

Four members of the potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) calcium-dependent protein kinase (CDPK) family StCDPK22/23/24 and StCDPK27, present three functional EF-hands motifs in their calmodulin-like domain (CLD). StCDPK22/23/24...

Cultivated peanut is susceptible to several highly damaging pests, pathogens and abiotic stressors, largely due to its very narrow genetic base. However, a ploidy barrier exists between cultivated and highly resistant wi...

Ca2+ and Si2+ treatments confer resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses in many fruits. In sweet cherries, Ca2+ improves shelf life extension during storage, but only CaCl2 is used. On the other hand, there is scarce i...

Abstract Background Zanthoxylum armatum is a vital economic crop in China, but its cultivation is challenged by abiotic stresses like drought and cold. Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinases (MAPKKs) are central signal...
