Abstract:Plants cannot physically escape environmental stresses because they are sessile organisms, which can stunt their growth. As a result, plants have had to evolve distinct strategies to deal with abiotic stress. Indeed, responding to and eventually adapting to abiotic stress may be a driving force in speciation. Because of the complexity of stress, multiple sensors, rather than a single sensor, are more likely to be responsible for stress perception. Stress-induced gene issues can be divided into two categories: … Show more
