Crop Production under Drought and Heat Stress: Plant Responses and Management Options
Shah Fahad,Ali Ahsan Bajwa,Usman Nazir,Shakeel Ahmad Anjum,Ayesha Farooq,Ali Zohaib,Sehrish Sadia,Wajid Nasim,Steve W. Adkins,Shah Saud,Shah Saud,Muhammad Ihsan,Hesham F. Alharby,Chao Wu,Depeng Wang,Jianliang Huang,Jianliang Huang +16 more
TL;DR: A comprehensive account of conventional as well as modern approaches to deal with heat and drought stresses have been presented here and a side-by-side critical discussion on salient responses and management strategies for these two important abiotic stresses provides a unique insight into the phenomena.

TL;DR: Recent work on the genetic and molecular mechanisms of plant abiotic stress and nutrient limitation sensing and signaling is summarized and new directions for future studies are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
WRKY transcription factors in plant responses to stresses
TL;DR: The WRKY gene family is among the largest families of transcription factors (TFs) in higher plants and regulates the plant hormone signal transduction pathway, playing critical roles in some plant processes in response to biotic and abiotic stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epigenetic and chromatin-based mechanisms in environmental stress adaptation and stress memory in plants.
Jörn Lämke,Isabel Bäurle +1 more
TL;DR: In this review, both the involvement of chromatin in stress responses and the current evidence on somatic, intergenerational, and transgenerational stress memory are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular Regulation of Plant Responses to Environmental Temperatures
TL;DR: Recent progress is discussed in exploring thermomorphogenesis, vernalization, and the mechanisms underlying plant tolerance to extreme temperatures, which are crucial for understanding the interactions between plants and temperature.

Journal ArticleDOI
Oxidative stress, antioxidants and stress tolerance
TL;DR: Key steps of the signal transduction pathway that senses ROIs in plants have been identified and raise several intriguing questions about the relationships between ROI signaling, ROI stress and the production and scavenging ofROIs in the different cellular compartments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Climate Trends and Global Crop Production Since 1980
TL;DR: It was found that in the cropping regions and growing seasons of most countries, with the important exception of the United States, temperature trends from 1980 to 2008 exceeded one standard deviation of historic year-to-year variability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Two transcription factors, DREB1 and DREB2, with an EREBP/AP2 DNA binding domain separate two cellular signal transduction pathways in drought- and low-temperature-responsive gene expression, respectively, in Arabidopsis.

TL;DR: Overexpression of the DREB1A cDNA in transgenic Arabidopsis plants not only induced strong expression of the target genes under unstressed conditions but also caused dwarfed phenotypes in the transgenic plants, and revealed freezing and dehydration tolerance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of extreme weather disasters on global crop production
TL;DR: It is shown that droughts and extreme heat significantly reduced national cereal production by 9–10%, whereas the analysis could not identify an effect from floods and extreme cold in the national data, which may help to guide agricultural priorities in international disaster risk reduction and adaptation efforts.

The Heat Shock Response: Life on the Verge of Death
TL;DR: This Review summarizes the concepts of the protective Hsp network, and the most conserved Hsps are molecular chaperones that prevent the formation of nonspecific protein aggregates and assist proteins in the acquisition of their native structures.
