The vast majority of agricultural land undergoes abiotic stress that can significantly reduce
agricultural yields. Understanding the mechanisms of plant defenses against stresses and …

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 …

Cold stress restricts plant growth, development, and distribution. Understanding how plants
transduce and respond to cold signals has long been a topic of interest. Traditional genetic …

Cold stress adversely affects plant growth and development. Most temperate plants acquire
freezing tolerance by a process called cold acclimation. Here, we focus on recent progress …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have multifaceted roles in the orchestration of plant gene
expression and gene-product regulation. Cellular redox homeostasis is considered to be an …

Temperature influences the seasonal growth and geographical distribution of plants. Heat or
cold stress occur when temperatures exceed or fall below the physiological optimum ranges …

Abiotic stresses, especially cold, salinity and drought, are the primary causes of crop loss
worldwide. Plant adaptation to environmental stresses is dependent upon the activation of …

Plants are constantly exposed to a variety of environmental stresses. Freezing or extremely
low temperature constitutes a key factor influencing plant growth, development and crop …

Exposure to low temperatures is one of the most important plant abiotic stress factors. In this
review we describe the damages that chilling and/or freezing temperatures can cause to …
