Exogenous melatonin improves maize flooding tolerance by 18.24% grain yield and enhances photosynthesis, water content, and antioxidant activity under flooding stress.
- Open access
Spartina anglica exhibits novel genomic features, including whole-genome duplications and gene expansions, that enhance its abiotic stress tolerance in saltmarsh environments.
- Open access
Thermospermine (tSpm) acts as a bifunctional translational modulator in vascular development and stress responses in plants, influencing xylem differentiation and abiotic stress adaptation.
- Open access
Heat priming at the tillering stage enhances spikelet fertility and seed germination under heat stress in IR64 rice, with up to 50% improvement observed.
- Open access
Recurrent drought induces a progressive shift from stress response to resource conservation in Atriplex halimus, with D3 showing metabolic downregulation and resource-saving signatures.
- Open access
RsHSFA3 enhances heat tolerance in Rhododendron simsii by activating heat shock proteins and improving ROS scavenging capacity.
- Open access
CAM evolution in Yucca causes widespread metabolic shifts, especially in nitrogen metabolism, with minimal correlation between mRNA and protein levels across species.
