Transcriptional Regulators of Plant Adaptation to Heat Stress

Urban Farm DB summary

This paper summarizes plant adaptation mechanisms to heat stress, which is an increasing problem for food security due to global warming. It outlines the mechanisms of transcriptional regulation mediated by transcription factors, epigenetic regulators, and regulatory RNAs in response to heat stress. Additionally, cellular activities for heat stress adaptation are discussed, including protein homeostasis maintenance through quality control machinery, autophagy, and ROS homeostasis regulation via a ROS-scavenging system.
