Global warming impacts crop production and threatens food security. Elevated temperatures
are sensed by different cell components. Temperature increases are classified as either mild …

Stress is a central concept in biology and has now been widely used in psychological,
physiological, social, and even environmental fields. However, the concept of stress was …

Temperature shapes the geographical distribution and behavior of plants. Understanding
the regulatory mechanisms underlying the plant heat stress response is important for …

Upland rice is a distinct ecotype that grows in aerobic environments and tolerates drought
stress. However, the genetic basis of its drought resistance is unclear. Here, using an …

Florets of cereal crops are the basic reproductive organs that produce grains for food or
feed. The birth of a floret progresses through meristem initiation and floral organ identity …

Melatonin (MT) is essential for plant development and drought adaptation. However, the
molecular and metabolic mechanisms underlying MT-induced drought tolerance in maize …

With ongoing global climate change, water scarcity‐induced drought stress remains a major
threat to agricultural productivity. Plants undergo a series of physiological and …

Plant species have evolved myriads of solutions, including complex cell type development
and regulation, to adapt to dynamic environments. To understand this cellular diversity, we …

Drought is a major environmental threat that limits crop growth, development, and
productivity worldwide. Improving drought resistance with genetic engineering methods is …

Plants display remarkable abilities to adjust growth and development to environmental
conditions, such as the amount of available water. This developmental plasticity is apparent …
