Cell Mechanisms of Nitric Oxide Signaling in Plants Under Abiotic Stress Conditions

Nitric oxide modulates actin filament organization in Arabidopsis thaliana primary root cells at low temperatures

“…Prolonged exposure of plants to stress conditions may result in the enhanced production of nitric oxide (NO) and its derivative (so called reactive nitrogen species) able to produce a series of intracellular alterations known under the collective term nitrosative stress (Corpas et al, ). NO is a small signal bioactive molecule functioning through the interactions with cellular target via either redox or additive chemistry (Lamattina et al, ; Krasylenko et al, ). NO has been emerging in plant cell to be an ubiquitous “do‐all” signaling molecule and a key second messenger in cell growth and division, root formation and differentiation, seed germination, flowering, stomatal closure as well as programmed cell death mediation and (a)biotic stress redox signaling pathways (Neill et al, ).…”

A journey through a plant cytoskeleton: Hot spots in signaling and functioning

“…The cytoskeleton is gaining increasing recognition as one of nitric oxide (NO)-downstream targets because of its involvement in many of NO-controlled processes in plants throughout the entire life cycle starting from seed germination to pollination as well as (a)biotic stress tolerance (Krasylenko et al, 2017a). Even nitration of tyrosine residues in many plant proteins including tubulin has been described over last decade (Yemets et al, 2011).…”

Foliar Application of Sodium Nitroprusside Boosts Solanum lycopersicum L. Tolerance to Glyphosate by Preventing Redox Disorders and Stimulating Herbicide Detoxification Pathways

“…Nitric oxide (NO), due to its small size and ability to easily diffuse across biological membranes, is recognized as a remarkable signalling molecule involved in the response of plants to different environmental constraints [10]. In fact, numerous studies conducted with several plant models have been pointing towards the important role of NO as an ameliorative agent against abiotic stresses [10][11][12][13][14][15]. Accordingly, the exogenous application of NO may result in an enhanced crop yield under adverse conditions, due to its role in regulating mechanisms related to increased tolerance to abiotic stress [14].…”
