Key message Extensive crosstalk exists among ABA and different phytohormones that
modulate plant tolerance against different abiotic stress. Being sessile, plants are exposed …

Salinity stress is the major abiotic stress that affects crop production and productivity as it
has a multifarious negative effect on the growth and development of the plant. Salinity stress …

Frequently changing environmental conditions pose unwarranted threat to plants life and
impose serious penalties in terms of arrested growth, metabolism and ultimately the yield …

Melatonin, a molecule first discovered in animal tissues, plays an important role in multiple
physiological responses as a possible plant master regulator. It mediates responses to …

Melatonin was discovered in plants in the late nineties, but its role, signaling, and crosstalk
with other phytohormones remain unknown. Research on melatonin in plants has risen …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are crucial signaling molecules in plants that play
multifarious roles in prompt response to environmental stimuli. Despite the classical …

Abstract Melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) is a biological indolamine. It is
biologically synthesized in plants and can be used to promote sustainable agriculture. This …

Melatonin is an essential phytohormone in the regulation of many plant processes, including
during plant development and in response to stress. Pathogen infections cause serious …

In recent decades, global crop production is being threatened by contamination of arable
lands with vanadium (V). Among many stress-relief substances, melatonin (ME) is a widely …

The expansion of gene families during evolution could generate functional diversity among
their members to regulate plant growth and development. Melatonin, a phylogenetically …
