Abiotic Stress in Plants

Melatonin-enabled omics: understanding plant responses to single and combined abiotic stresses for climate-smart agriculture Climate change-driven single and combined abiotic stresses pose escalating threats to sustainable, climate-smart agriculture and global food security. Melatonin (MLT, a powerful plant biostimulant)...

Heat shock protein modulates cell expansion via ROS homeostasis Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are evolutionarily conserved, yet their functions in plant growth and development remain incompletely characterized. Here, we demonstrate that a HSP90 co-chaperone PpNudC6.....

In this work, together with my wonderful co-authors (Yiran Li, Channapatna Prakash, and Zhangli Hu), we discuss how climate change-driven combined abiotic stresses threaten global crop productivity, and how panomics, AI-driven breeding, single-cell omics, and advanced phenotyping can guide the way for stress-smart crops of the future🌱 🔑 𝙆𝙚𝙮 𝙞𝙣𝙨𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩𝙨: Panomics + AI = unlocking novel molecular targets & pathways Field-level validation + spatial/single-cell omics for real-world solutions Synthetic biology and epigenome editing as next-gen breeding strategies Crop wild relatives as hidden reservoirs of resilience Designing "genetic circuits" and "full-gene packages" for enhanced tolerance Ultimately, we propose panomics as a “social insurance” for crops, equipping them to withstand real-world stress combinations and secure sustainable agriculture in a changing climate 🌍✨
