Plants are constantly exposed to changing environmental conditions. Abiotic stresses cause adverse effects on plant growth, development, survival, and yield. It is essential to improve plant responses to such environmental conditions to achieve sustainable crop growth, development, and productivity. The activation of plant stress signaling mechanisms is crucial to address the adverse impacts of environmental factors on plant growth and productivity. Phytoprotectants, including signaling molecules, play crucial roles in the activation of plant physiological and molecular mechanisms to withstand the negative effects of abiotic stress on plants. Investigation of physiological, biochemical, and metabolic pathways associated with plant adaptation to abiotic stress will help identify the key players involved in plant abiotic stress tolerance mechanisms. The sensing, signaling, and gene regulatory mechanisms that help plants cope with abiotic stress must be fully explored.
The understanding of abiotic stress tolerance in plants has greatly expanded in recent years, thanks to the advancement of genomics, proteomics, and transcriptomic tools. However, plant regulation of key regulatory mechanisms associated with physiological and molecular adaptations to a variety of abiotic stresses are still far from being well characterized. This Research Topic intends to collect novel findings that explore holistic mechanisms and pathways associated with the enhancement of plant resilience to abiotic stress.
This Research Topic welcomes research and review papers that contribute to our understanding of plant abiotic stress adaptation and the development of plants that are more resilient to changing environmental conditions. Authors are encouraged to consult with the editors before submitting their manuscripts by sending an outline and author list. Submissions are welcome on the following sub-themes:
• Physiological, biochemical, and metabolic studies that examine the impact of unfavorable abiotic stress on various attributes of plant survival mechanisms
• Molecular responses of stress related genes and pathways for plant growth regulation and development under abiotic stress conditions
• Integrated metabolomics, hormonomics, proteomics and transcriptomics approaches to evaluate plant abiotic stress tolerance mechanisms
• Biotechnological interventions of abiotic stress tolerance mechanisms for improvement of crop stress resistance to abiotic stresses.
