To better adapt transiently or lastingly to stimuli from the surrounding environment, the
chromatin states in plant cells vary to allow the cells to fine-tune their transcriptional profiles …

Plants offer a habitat for a range of interactions to occur among different stress factors.
Epigenetics has become the most promising functional genomics tool, with huge potential …

Legume crops are rich in nutritional value for human and livestock consumption. With global
climate change, develo** stress‐resilient crops is crucial for ensuring global food security …

NAC genes comprise one of the largest families of plant transcription regulators that are
known to play crucial roles in various developmental processes and stress responses …

Abstract E2F/DP is a transcription factor family that is essential for cell cycle control. The
chromosomal distribution, gene structure/motif analysis, miRNA analysis and phylogenetic …

Background Salinity stress, as the key limiting factor for agricultural productivity, can activate
a series of molecular responses and alter gene expression in plants. Endogenous …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are important and ubiquitous regulators of gene expression in
eukaryotes. However, the information about miRNAs population and their regulatory …

The genome of an organism is regulated in concert with the organized action of various
genetic regulators at different hierarchical levels. Small non-coding RNAs are one of these …

Epigenetic modifications are known to alter the activation pattern of some genes and not the
per se DNA sequence. Stress to the plant causes epigenetic alterations in the plant either as …

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are the “dark matters” involved in gene regulation with
complex mechanisms. However, the functions of most lncRNAs remain to be determined …
