Roles of melatonin in abiotic stress resistance in plants
TL;DR: Evidence indicates that environmental stress can increase the level of endogenous melatonin in plants and exogenously applied melatonin can also improve the ability of plants to tolerate abiotic stresses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Melatonin promotes water‐stress tolerance, lateral root formation, and seed germination in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.)
TL;DR: The results suggest that the adverse effects of water stress can be minimized by the application of melatonin, and specifically on strengthening cucumber roots.
Journal ArticleDOI
Melatonin promotes seed germination under high salinity by regulating antioxidant systems, ABA and GA4 interaction in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.)

TL;DR: New evidence is provided suggesting that melatonin alleviates the inhibitory effects of NaCl stress on germination mainly by regulating the biosynthesis and catabolism of ABA and GA4.
Journal ArticleDOI
Melatonin promotes ripening and improves quality of tomato fruit during postharvest life
Qianqian Sun,Na Zhang,Jinfang Wang,Haijun Zhang,Dianbo Li,Jin Shi,Ren Li,Sarah Weeda,Bing Zhao,Shuxin Ren,Yang-Dong Guo +10 more
TL;DR: Tomato fruits were treated by exogenous melatonin and the effect of melatonin on ethylene biosynthesis, ethylene perception, and ethylene signalling may contribute to fruit ripening and quality improvement in tomato.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arabidopsis Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Key Roles of Melatonin in Plant Defense Systems
Sarah Weeda,Na Zhang,Xiaolei Zhao,Grace Ndip,Yang-Dong Guo,Gregory A. Buck,Conggui Fu,Shuxin Ren +7 more
TL;DR: Critical roles of melatonin in plant defense against various environmental stresses are indicated, and a framework for functional analysis of genes in melatonin-mediated signaling pathways is provided.
