TL;DR: The need for developing crops with enhanced tolerance to drought and heat stress combination in order to mitigate the negative impacts of predicted global climatic changes on agricultural production worldwide is emphasized.

TL;DR: The presence/absence and relative accumulation of certain metabolites along with gene expression data provides accurate markers (mQTL or MWAS) for tolerant crop selection in breeding programs.

TL;DR: Since root exudates play an important role in the recruitment of mycorrhizal fungi and plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), the mechanisms of interaction between plants and the beneficial microbiota have been highlighted.

TL;DR: It is proved that transgenic plants overexpressing a gibberellin (GA)-responsive gene from beechnut, coding for a member of the GA3 stimulated in Arabidopsis (GASA) family, showed a reduced GA dependence for growth and improved responses to salt, oxidative, and heat stress at the level of seed germination and seedling establishment.

TL;DR: It is suggested that PKABA1 acts upstream from the formation of functional GAMyb but downstream from the site of action of the Slender gene product, which appears that at least part of the action of PkaBA1 is to downregulate GAMyB at the transcriptional level.
