Role of Plant Transcription Factors in Abiotic Stress Tolerance
Plants are constantly exposed to a wide range of environmental stresses such as drought, high salt, heat and extremes of temperature. Growth constraints due to these abiotic stresses result in reduced productivity and significant crop losses globally. Drought and salinity affect more than 10% of arable land, which results in more than 50% decline in the average yields of important crops worldwi...
متن کاملRecent Advances in Utilizing Transcription Factors to Improve Plant Abiotic Stress Tolerance by Transgenic Technology
Agricultural production and quality are adversely affected by various abiotic stresses worldwide and this will be exacerbated by the deterioration of global climate. To feed a growing world population, it is very urgent to breed stress-tolerant crops with higher yields and improved qualities against multiple environmental stresses. Since conventional breeding approaches had marginal success due...
متن کاملStress-induced senescence and plant tolerance to abiotic stress.
Senescence is an age-dependent process, ultimately leading to plant death, that in annual crop plants overlaps with the reproductive stage of development. Research on the molecular and biochemical mechanisms of leaf senescence has revealed a multi-layered regulatory network operating to control age-dependent processes. Abiotic stress-induced senescence challenges source-sink relationships and r...
متن کاملProtein Ubiquitination: An Emerging Theme in Plant Abiotic Stress Tolerance
The ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS) effectively and efficiently controls the abundance of regulatory proteins, removes abnormal proteins and regulates the activity of signalling proteins. This allows for control of regulatory networks and adaptation to external stimuli. Plants utilize the UPS to alter their proteome, to modulate cellular activity and thus cope with unfavourable growth conditi...
متن کاملThe Plant Heat Stress Transcription Factors (HSFs): Structure, Regulation, and Function in Response to Abiotic Stresses
Abiotic stresses such as high temperature, salinity, and drought adversely affect the survival, growth, and reproduction of plants. Plants respond to such unfavorable changes through developmental, physiological, and biochemical ways, and these responses require expression of stress-responsive genes, which are regulated by a network of transcription factors (TFs), including heat stress transcri...
