Temperature is one of the main environmental factors that affect plant metabolism.
Considering that plants are sessile, their survival depends on the efficient activation of …

Most plants show considerable capacity to adjust their photosynthetic characteristics to their
growth temperatures (temperature acclimation). The most typical case is a shift in the …

Abiotic stressful conditions of the environment such as soil salinity, drought, flood, heat, cold,
anaerobiosis, gaseous pollutants, radiation, and high levels of metals in the soil are major …

Background Coffee is one of the most valuable commodities exported worldwide. Greater
understanding of the molecular basis of coffee quality is required to meet the increasing …

We review the current understanding of the temperature responses of C3 and C4
photosynthesis across thermal ranges that do not harm the photosynthetic apparatus. In C3 …

Cold temperatures are the cause of enormous agricultural losses, especially in sub-tropical
and temperate grain crops. The reproductive period is a vital phase in the life cycle of all …

Metabolic profiling analyses were performed to determine metabolite temporal dynamics
associated with the induction of acquired thermotolerance in response to heat shock and …

We further investigated the role of the Arabidopsis CBF regulatory genes in cold acclimation,
the process whereby certain plants increase in freezing tolerance upon exposure to low …

Since the publication of the third edition of the Handbook of Plant and Crop Stress,
continuous discoveries in the fields of plant and crop environmental stresses and their …

Sucrose (Suc) plays a central role in plant growth and development. It is a major end product
of photosynthesis and functions as a primary transport sugar and in some cases as a direct …
