Description
Summary:Cold stress is a major environmental factor affecting the growth, development, and productivity of various crop species. With the current trajectory of global climate change, low temperatures are becoming more frequent and can significantly decrease crop yield. Wheat ( L.) is the first domesticated crop and is the most popular cereal crop in the world. Because of a lack of systematic research on cold signaling pathways and gene regulatory networks, the underlying molecular mechanisms of cold signal transduction in wheat are poorly understood. This study reviews recent progress in wheat, including the - - signaling pathway under cold stress and the effects of cold stress on hormonal pathways, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and epigenetic processes and elements. This review also highlights possible strategies for improving cold tolerance in wheat.
