TL;DR: In this review, research progress in plant responses to abiotic stresses is summarized from the physiological level to the molecular level, providing additional focus areas for crop improvement research in the future.

TL;DR: A better knowledge of the regulatory mechanisms of the flavonoids pathway is likely to favour the development of new biotechnological tools for the generation of value-added plants with optimized flavonoid content.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the key control points in grape ripening and concluded that optimal grape maturity is essential for wine quality, but is difficult to assess because it is under multifactorial control, involving grapevine cultivar variety and environmental parameters such as soil, temperature, exposure to sun, and hormonal regulation.

TL;DR: An overview about AQP structure, function and regulation in a broad range of living organisms is given, with emphasis on plant AQPs where the high number and diversity of these transport proteins make them behave more like multifunctional, highly adapted channels rather than simple water pores.

TL;DR: A yeast mutant deficient in oligopeptide transport was constructed allowing to show that NTR1 functions as a high affinity, low specificity peptide transporter.
