Decoding the Hydro-Metabolic Switch: Mechanistic Insights into Stochastic Environmental Disruption of Mango Phenology

Environmental sensing, hormonal crosstalk and molecular control of mango flowering in Mangifera indica L.

Mango is an evergreen perennial whose flowering depends on the developmental competence of a mature flush and on environmental conditions that alter the balance between vegetative growth and reproductive transition. This review focuses on temperature and light sensing, water status, source-sink signals, hormonal crosst...

Molecular and physiological mechanisms of drought tolerance in grapevine

This review synthesizes recent advances in elucidating the molecular and physiological mechanisms underlying drought tolerance in Vitis vinifera to provide an integrative conceptual framework to support sustainable viticulture in water-limited environments.

Physiological and Molecular Mechanisms of Tree Responses to Combined Drought and Low-Nitrogen Stress: A Review

Drought and low nitrogen often co-occur in forests, yet their combined effects cannot be inferred reliably from single-stress studies. This review synthesizes physiological and molecular evidence for tree responses to combined drought and low nitrogen at four levels, namely stress perception, signal transduction, metab...

Distinct root signaling and anatomy associate with convergent leaf responses to drought and salinity in grapevine rootstocks.

It is demonstrated that leaf phenotypic convergence can mask divergent control architectures modulated by root anatomical traits, which help distinguish between water-conservative and water-spending behaviours and provide critical parameters for identifying genotypes with enhanced resilience to environmental stress.

Cold Tolerance in Alfalfa: Physiological Mechanisms, Regulatory Networks, and Molecular Breeding Prospects

Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) is a perennial legume forage whose winter survival determines stand persistence, spring green-up, and long-term yield in cold regions. Low-temperature stress causes membrane phase transitions, cellular dehydration, impaired photosynthetic electron transport, and excessive reactive oxygen sp...
