The dramatic temperature fluctuations spurred by climate change inhibit plant growth and
threaten crop productivity. Unraveling how plants defend themselves against temperature …

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

Temperature is a key factor governing the growth and development, distribution, and
seasonal behavior of plants. The entire plant life cycle is affected by environmental …

Gibberellins are produced by all vascular plants and several fungal and bacterial species
that associate with plants as pathogens or symbionts. In the 60 years since the first …

Gibberellins have been classically related to a few key developmental processes, thus being
essential for the accurate unfolding of plant genetic programs. After more than a century of …

The size of plant organs is highly responsive to environmental conditions. The plant's
embryonic stem, or hypocotyl, displays phenotypic plasticity, in response to light and …

Plants are exposed to a variety of abiotic stresses; these stresses have profound effects on
plant growth, survival, and productivity. Tolerance and adaptation to stress require …

When exposed to warmer, nonstressful average temperatures, some plant organs grow and
develop at a faster rate without affecting their final dimensions. Other plant organs show …

Temperature is a major factor governing the distribution and seasonal behaviour of plants.
Being sessile, plants are highly responsive to small differences in temperature and adjust …

Temperature is a major environmental cue affecting plant growth and development. Plants
often experience higher temperatures in the context of a 24 h day–night cycle, with …
