In the whole life process, many factors including external and internal factors affect plant
growth and development. The morphogenesis, growth, and development of plants are …

Agriculture and climate change are internally correlated with each other in various aspects,
as climate change is the main cause of biotic and abiotic stresses, which have adverse …

Agricultural production and quality are adversely affected by various abiotic stresses
worldwide and this will be exacerbated by the deterioration of global climate. To feed a …

Ethylene is essential for many developmental processes and a key mediator of biotic and
abiotic stress responses in plants. The ethylene signaling and response pathway includes …

Transcription factors belonging to the APETALA 2/Ethylene R esponsive F actor (AP 2/ERF)
family are conservatively widespread in the plant kingdom. These regulatory proteins are …

It remains a major challenge to identify the genes and mutations that lead to plant sexual
differentiation. Here, we study the structure and evolution of the sex-determining region …
