The Attributes of RNA Interference in Relation to Plant Abiotic Stress Tolerance
Micro RNAs are small non coding RNA molecule that plays a vital role in post transcriptional gene regulation by either translational repression or by inducing mRNA cleavage. These small non coding RNAs have emerged as one of the master regulators of plant growth and development. Recent studies have revealed their role in abiotic stress responses. Expression level of several miRNA changes when e...
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 کاملRole 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 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 relationship of fructan to abiotic stress tolerance in plants
Fructan has long been recognized as a crucial component of drought and freeze protection in plants but the relationship is controversial and many studies have shown contradictory correlations between fructan and resistance to stress. Much of the early research considered how hexose sugars from fructan hydrolysis affected the chemical potential of water. As model membrane systems became availabl...
