TLDR
This review highlights the application of the microarray analysis to the understanding of the plant abiotic stress responses and tolerance and genetic engineering of the stress-inducible genes has become one of the promising strategies for the molecular breeding of the stressed plants.Abstract:
Plants respond and adapt to drought, high-salinity and cold stresses in order to survive. Molecular and genomic studies have shown that many genes with various functions are induced by drought, high-salinity and cold stresses, and that the various signaling factors including transcription factors are involved in the stress responses. The development of microarray-based expression profiling methods has allowed significant progress in the characterization of the plant stress response. Genetic engineering of the stress-inducible genes has become one of the promising strategies for the molecular breeding of the stress-tolerant plants. In this review, we highlight the application of the microarray analysis to the understanding of the plant abiotic stress responses and tolerance.read more

Abiotic Stress Responses in Plants: Present and Future
TL;DR: There is a whole cascade of genes involved in abiotic stress tolerance; starting from stress perception to transcriptional activation of downstream genes leading to stress adaptation and tolerance, and significant number of genes with unknown functions found to be regulated by abiotic stresses.

Current Knowledge in Physiological and Genetic Mechanisms Underpinning Tolerances to Alkaline and Saline Subsoil Constraints of Broad Acre Cropping in Dryland Regions
TL;DR: Rengasamy et al. as discussed by the authors found that the simultaneous occurrence of multiple abiotic stresses may result in far greater productivity loss than any single abiotic or biotic factor, such as high and low temperature, water deficit, salinity, sodicity, alkalinity, acidity and ion deficiencies and toxicities.
