Revisiting the Role of Plant Transcription Factors in the Battle against Abiotic Stress

Abstract: Owing to diverse abiotic stresses and global climate deterioration, the agricultural production worldwide is suffering serious losses. Breeding stress-resilient crops with higher quality and yield against multiple environmental stresses via application of transgenic technologies is currently the most promising approach. Deciphering molecular principles and mining stress-associate genes that govern plant responses against abiotic stresses is one of the prerequisites to develop stress-resistant crop varieties.

“…Unlike animals, plants are sessile in nature and responses to abiotic stress are associated with activation of gene regulatory networks and pathways involved in stress response (Shinozaki et al ., 2007; Zeller et al ., 2009). The role of transcription factors and signal transduction components in adaptive stress responses has been revealed (Xiong et al ., 2001; Mizoi et al ., Zhu et al ., 2016; Khan et al ., 2018). Epigenetic modifications associated with chromatin re-organization can also play significant role in stress responses (Bruce et al ., 2007; Probst et al ., 2015; Garg et al ., 2015; Neto et al ., 2017).…”

“…The population in our planet is projected to rise to 9 billion by the year 2050 (Hussain., 2006), together with the rapid changes in climate there is an urgent need to speed up the productivity of major crops. Understanding molecular mechanisms and mining stress-responsive genes that control plant responses to different abiotic stresses is a major prerequisite in the development of stress-resistant and high yielding crop varieties (Khan et al, 2018). To safeguard the global food production, crops (like maize) that are well adapted to adverse environmental conditions should be established (Vinocur and Altman, 2005).…”

“…Plants utilize receptors, membrane channels, various types of kinases and phosphatases, ion fluxes, calcium/calmodulin interactive proteins, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and phytohormones for sensing and signaling different types of stresses [1]. Transcription factors (TFs) participate in the signaling cascades, and are a key component in regulating gene expression in response to biotic and abiotic stresses and in growth and development [2,3]. While there are about 60 different transcription factor families in plants [4], several families are more frequently associated with biotic and abiotic stress responses in plants, such as MYB (v-myb avian myeloblastosis viral oncogene homolog) [5], bHLH [6], AP2/ERF [7,8], WRKY [9], NAC [10], and bZIP transcription factors [11][12][13].…”
