Responses to Drought and Flooding

Responses to Drought and Flooding

Water plays a significant role in the life cycle of plants. However, insufficient or excess of water can be detrimental and pose a serious threat to plants.

Responses to Salt Stress

Responses to Salt Stress

Salt stress—which can be triggered by high salt concentrations in a plant’s environment—can significantly affect plant growth and crop production by influencing photosynthesis and the absorption of water and nutrients.

Responses to Heat and Cold Stress

Responses to Heat and Cold Stress

Every organism has an optimum temperature range within which healthy growth and physiological functioning can occur. At the ends of this range, there will be a minimum and maximum temperature that interrupt biological processes.

Plant Breeding and Biotechnology

Plant Breeding and Biotechnology

Crop cultivation has a long history in human civilization, with records showing the cultivation of cereal plants beginning at around 8000 BC. This early plant breeding was developed primarily to provide a steady supply of food.

Adaptations that Reduce Water Loss

Adaptations that Reduce Water Loss

Though evaporation from plant leaves drives transpiration, it also results in loss of water. Because water is critical for photosynthetic reactions and other cellular processes, evolutionary pressures on plants in different environments have driven the acquisition of adaptations that reduce water loss.

Plant Tissue Culture

Plant Tissue Culture

Plant tissue culture is widely used in both primary and applied science. Applications range from plant development studies to functional gene studies, crop improvement, commercial micropropagation, virus elimination, and conservation of rare species.

Area of Science:

Plant Science
Bioinformatics
Genomics

Background:

Plants face combined biotic and abiotic stresses, exacerbated by climate change.
Existing OMICS data on plant stress responses is fragmented and inaccessible.
There is a critical need for integrated, publicly available data repositories.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop a manually curated knowledgebase (CroPCS) for crop plant responses to combined stresses.
To provide a user-friendly platform for accessing and querying molecular data.
To facilitate research on plant adaptation to environmental challenges.

Main Methods:

Manual biocuration of OMICS literature.
Integration of data on genes, proteins, metabolites, and non-coding RNAs.
Development of a searchable online repository with a user-friendly interface.

Main Results:

CroPCS version 1 includes 13 crop plants and 16 stress combinations.
The database contains 266,417 molecules: 262,220 genes, 1709 proteins, 274 metabolites, and 2214 ncRNAs.
The resource supports community curation, allowing user data submissions.

Conclusions:

CroPCS is a unique, comprehensive online resource for plant stress research.
It enhances accessibility of critical molecular data for crop improvement.
The knowledgebase supports research into plant resilience under combined environmental stresses.
