نویسنده

  • Gareth J Warren
چکیده

A single transcription factor can trigger induction of the freezing-tolerant state in Arabidopsis. Is such a factor all that is lacking in non-hardy plants?

Evaluation of freezing tolerance in olive cultivars by stomatal density and freezing stress

Selection of frost tolerant cultivars and understanding the mechanisms of frost hardiness could help to improve freezing resistance in olive plants. Olive cultivars may differ in frost hardiness due to differential survival of specific organs. The aim of this study was to screen different olive cultivars based on their stomatal density and metabolic modifications under cold conditions. The ‘Zar...

A R2R3 type MYB transcription factor is involved in the cold regulation of CBF genes and in acquired freezing tolerance.

Cold temperatures trigger the expression of the CBF family of transcription factors, which in turn activate many downstream genes that confer freezing tolerance to plants. It has been shown previously that the cold regulation of CBF3 involves an upstream bHLH-type transcription factor, ICE1. ICE1 binds to the Myc recognition sequences in the CBF3 promoter. Apart from Myc recognition sequences, ...

Glycine-rich RNA-binding proteins are functionally conserved in Arabidopsis thaliana and Oryza sativa during cold adaptation process

Contrary to the increasing amount of knowledge regarding the functional roles of glycine-rich RNA-binding proteins (GRPs) in Arabidopsis thaliana in stress responses, the physiological functions of GRPs in rice (Oryza sativa) currently remain largely unknown. In this study, the functional roles of six OsGRPs from rice on the growth of E. coli and plants under cold or freezing stress conditions ...

Abiotic Stress Signaling in Plants–An Overview

Abiotic stress factors [such as salinity, water availability (less or excess water), temperature extremes (freezing, cold, or high), metal/metalloids, nutrient stress, etc.] are basically severe menaces to the global agriculture, restricting the crop plants from reaching their full genetic potential and causing significant yield losses worldwide. In general, stresses are complex and multigenic ...

Mitigation of chilling and freezing stresses through colonization with arbuscular ‎mycorrhizal fungi in spring barley ‎

Cold stress is an ‎important limiting factor for cereal production. Barley is a host species for arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) with a high genetic diversity in response to cold stress. In order to explore the mechanisms for the ameliorative effect of AMF under cold stress, an experiment was undertaken using completely randomized block design with three factors including temperature treatme...
