Soil salinity is a major environmental stress that restricts the growth and yield of crops.
Understanding the physiological, metabolic, and biochemical responses of plants to salt …

Prolonged periods of drought triggered by climate change hamper plant growth and cause
substantial agricultural yield losses every year. In addition to drought, salinity is one of the …

Background It is a long-standing goal of scientists and breeders to precisely control a gene
for studying its function as well as improving crop yield, quality, and tolerance to various …

Endogenous RNAs that control posttranscriptional gene expression are microRNAs
(miRNAs). These small regulatory molecules play a crucial role in certain biological …

A plant growing in nature is not an individual, but it holds an intricate community of plants
and microbes with relatively stable partnerships. The microbial community has recently been …

Climate change significantly impacts crop production by inducing several abiotic and biotic
stresses. The increasing world population, and their food and industrial demands require …

Main conclusion There is a need to integrate conceptual framework based on the current
understanding of salt stress responses with different approaches for manipulating and …

The microRNAs (miRNAs) are small (20–24 nt) sized, non-coding, single stranded
riboregulator RNAs abundant in higher organisms. Recent findings have established that …

Recent achievements in plant microRNA (miRNA), a large class of small and non-coding
RNAs, are very exciting. A wide array of techniques involving forward genetic, molecular …

Salinity is an important abiotic environmental stress factor threatening agricultural
productivity throughout the world. The detrimental effects of salinity stress are observed at …
