Plants are exposed to a multitude of environmental stresses like drought, salinity, cold, heat,
UV‐B rays and heavy metal toxicity which severely impair plant development and reduce …

Although great progress has been made towards understanding the role of abscisic acid
(ABA) and sucrose in fruit ripening, the mechanisms underlying the ABA and sucrose …

Global climate change has caused severe abiotic and biotic stresses, affecting plant growth
and food security. The mechanical understanding of plant stress responses is critical for …

Cultivating new crop cultivars with multiple abiotic stress tolerances is important for crop
production. The abscisic acid‐stress‐ripening (ASR) protein has been shown to confer …

Auxin response factors (ARFs) act as key elements of the auxin-signaling pathway and play
important roles in the process of a plant's growth, development, and response to …

Grapevine (Vitis vinifera) is a model for the investigation of physiological and biochemical
changes during the formation and ripening of nonclimacteric fleshy fruits. However, the order …

Abscisic acid-, stress-, and ripening-induced (ASR) genes are involved in responding to
abiotic stresses, but their precise roles in enhancing grain yield under stress conditions …

Pathogens compromise host defense responses by strategically secreting effector proteins.
However, the molecular mechanisms by which effectors manipulate disease-resistance …

Catharanthus roseus leaves produce a range of monoterpenoid indole alkaloids (MIAs) that
include low levels of the anticancer drugs vinblastine and vincristine. The MIA pathway …

Canavalia rosea (bay bean), distributing in coastal areas or islands in tropical and
subtropical regions, is an extremophile halophyte with good adaptability to seawater and …
