Plant Low-Temperature Stress: Signaling and Response

Cold stress has always been a significant limitation for plant development and causes substantial decreases in crop yield. Some temperate plants, such as Arabidopsis, have the ability to carry out internal adjustment, which maintains checks metabolic machinery during cold temperatures. This acclimation process requires prior exposure low, chilling temperatures prevent damage subsequent freezing maintain overall wellbeing of despite low-temperature conditions. In comparison, plants tropical subtropical origins, rice, are sensitive respond differently stress. Plants evolved various physiological, biochemical, molecular mechanisms sense stress, including membrane modifications cytoskeletal rearrangement. Moreover, transient increase cytosolic calcium level leads activation many calcium-binding proteins calcium-dependent protein kinases Recently, mitogen-activated found regulate signaling through ICE1. Besides, epigenetic control plays crucial role response. review primarily focuses on experienced by their strategies overcome it.
