Research Interests: impact of abiotic stresses on natural and agricultural ecosystems
Summary
Abiotic stresses, including drought, salinity, extreme temperatures, and heavy metal toxicity, threaten global agricultural productivity and ecosystem stability. This special issue aims to compile innovative research and comprehensive reviews that explore the physiological, biochemical, and molecular mechanisms plants employ to cope with such stresses. We invite contributions highlighting advancements in understanding stress signaling pathways, adaptive responses, and the roles of secondary metabolites and nanoparticles in enhancing plant resilience. Furthermore, contributions may focus on applying biotechnological approaches to improve stress tolerance and sustainable agricultural practices. Key topics of interest for this special issue include, but are not limited to:
1）Physiological and biochemical responses of plants to abiotic stresses;
2）Molecular genetics and epigenetic regulation of stress tolerance;
3）Role of plant growth regulators and nutrients in stress mitigation;
4）Innovative agricultural techniques for stress management；
5）Interaction of multiple abiotic stresses and their cumulative effects.
This special issue serves as a platform for interdisciplinary research and aims to facilitate knowledge exchange among researchers, practitioners, and policymakers. We encourage submissions that contribute to a deeper understanding of plant responses to abiotic stress and explore potential solutions for enhancing food security in changing environmental conditions.
