Abstract
Low temperature is a critical environmental stress factor that restricts crop growth and geographical distribution, significantly impacting crop quality and yield. When plants are exposed to low temperatures, a series of changes occur in their external morphology and internal physiological and biochemical metabolism. This article comprehensively reviews the alterations and regulatory mechanisms of physiological and biochemical indices, such as membrane system stability, redox system, fatty acid content, photosynthesis, and osmoregulatory substances, in response to low-temperature stress in plants. Furthermore, we summarize recent research on signal transduction and regulatory pathways, phytohormones, epigenetic modifications, and other molecular mechanisms mediating the response to low temperatures in higher plants. In addition, we outline cultivation practices to improve plant cold resistance and highlight the cold-related genes used in molecular breeding. Last, we discuss future research directions, potential application prospects of plant cold resistance breeding, and recent significant breakthroughs in the research and application of cold resistance mechanisms.

Abstract
Salinity stands as a significant environmental stressor, severely impacting crop productivity. Plants exposed to salt stress undergo physiological alterations that influence their growth and development. Meanwhile, plants have also evolved mechanisms to endure the detrimental effects of salinity-induced salt stress. Within plants, Calcineurin B-like (CBL) proteins act as vital Ca2+ sensors, binding to Ca2+ and subsequently transmitting signals to downstream response pathways. CBLs engage with CBL-interacting protein kinases (CIPKs), forming complexes that regulate a multitude of plant growth and developmental processes, notably ion homeostasis in response to salinity conditions. This review introduces the repercussions of salt stress, including osmotic stress, diminished photosynthesis, and oxidative damage. It also explores how CBLs modulate the response to salt stress in plants, outlining the functions of the CBL-CIPK modules involved. Comprehending the mechanisms through which CBL proteins mediate salt tolerance can accelerate the development of cultivars resistant to salinity.

Abstract
Ammonium (NH4+) serves as a vital nitrogen source for plants, but it can turn toxic when it accumulates in excessive amounts. Toxicity is aggravated under hypoxic/anaerobic conditions, e.g., during flooding or submergence, due to a lower assimilation capacity. AMT1; 1 mediates NH4+ uptake into roots. Under conditions of oxygen-deficiency, i.e., submergence, the CBL-interacting protein kinase OsCIPK15 has been shown to trigger SnRK1A signaling, promoting starch mobilization, thereby the increasing availability of ATP, reduction equivalents and acceptors for NH4+ assimilation in rice. Our previous study in Arabidopsis demonstrates that AtCIPK15 phosphorylates AMT1; 1 whose activity is under allosteric feedback control by phosphorylation of T460 in the cytosolic C-terminus. Here we show that submergence cause higher NH4+ accumulation in wild-type, plant but not of nitrate, nor in a quadruple amt knock-out mutant. In addition, submergence triggers rapid accumulation of AtAMT1;1 and AtCIPK15 transcripts as well as AMT1 phosphorylation. Significantly, cipk15 knock-out mutants do not exhibit an increase in AMT1 phosphorylation; however, they do display heightened sensitivity to submergence. These findings suggest that CIPK15 suppresses AMT activity, resulting in decreased NH4+ accumulation during submergence, a period when NH4+ assimilation capacity may be impaired.

Abstract
SOS2-like protein kinases (PKS/CIPK) family genes are known to be involved in various abiotic stresses in plants. Even though, its functions have been well characterized under salt and drought stresses. The roles of PKS genes associated with alkaline stress response are not fully established yet. In this study, we identified 56 PKS family genes which could be mainly classified into three groups in wild soybean (Glycine soja). PKS family genes transcript profiles revealed different expression patterns under alkali stress. Furthermore, we confirmed the regulatory roles of GsPKS24 in response to NaHCO3, pH and ABA treatments. Overexpression of GsPKS24 enhanced plant tolerance to pH stress in Arabidopsis and soybean hairy roots but conferred suppressed pH tolerance in Arabidopsis atpks mutant. Additionally, Overexpression of GsPKS24 decreased the ABA sensitivity compared to Arabidopsis atpks mutant which displayed more sensitivity towards ABA. Moreover, upregulated expression of stress responsive and ABA signal-related genes were detected in GsPKS24 overexpression lines. In conclusion, we identified the wild soybean PKS family genes, and explored the roles of GsPKS24 in positive response to pH stress tolerance, and in alleviation of ABA sensitivity.

Abstract
Ca2+ signaling is an important biological process that enable to perceive and communicate information in the cell. Our current understanding of the signaling system suggests that plants and animals have certain differences in signal-sensing mechanisms. The Ca2+-mediated CBL-CIPK module has emerged as a major sensor responder network for Ca2+ signaling and has been speculated to be involved in plant terrestrial life adaptation. This module has previously been reported in Archaeplastids, Chromalveolates, and Excavates. In our experimental analysis of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii CBLs, we proved that the CrCBL1 protein interacts with Phototropin and Channelrhodopsin, and the expression of CrCBLs is modulated by light. Further analysis using chlorophyte and streptophyte algal sequences allowed us to identify the differences that have evolved in CBL and CIPK proteins since plants have progressed from aquatic to terrestrial habitats. Moreover, an investigation of Klebsormidium CBL and CIPK genes led us to know that they are abiotic stress stimuli-responsive, indicating that their role was defined very early during terrestrial adaptations. Structure-based prediction and Ca2+-binding assays indicated that the KnCBL1 protein in Klebsormidium showed a typical Ca2+-binding pocket. In summary, the results of this study suggest that these stress-responsive proteins enable crosstalk between Ca2+ and light signaling pathways very early during plant adaptation from aquatic to terrestrial habitats.

Abstract
CIPKs are a subclass of serine/threonine (Ser/Thr) protein kinases. CBLs are ubiquitous Ca2+ sensors that interact with CIPK with the aid of secondary Ca2+ messengers for regulation of growth and development and response to stresses faced by plants. The divergent roles of the CIPK-CBL interaction in plants include responding to environmental stresses (salt, cold, drought, pH, ABA signaling, and ion toxicity), ion homeostasis (K+, NH4 +, NO3 -, and microelement homeostasis), biotic stress, and plant development. Each member of this gene family produces distinct proteins that help plants adapt to diverse stresses or stimuli by interacting with calcium ion signals. CIPK consists of two structural domains-an N-terminal domain and a C-terminal domain-connected by a junction domain. The N-terminal domain, the site of phosphorylation, is also called the activation domain and kinase domain. The C-terminal, also known as the regulatory domain of CIPK, further comprises NAF/FISL and PPI. CBL comprises four EF domains and conserved PFPF motifs and is the site of binding with the NAF/FISL domain of CIPK to form a CBL-CIPK complex. In addition, we also performed a bibliometric analysis of the CIPK gene family of data extracted from the WoSCC. A total of 95 documents were retrieved, which had been published by 47 sources. The production over time was zigzagged. The top key terms were gene, CIPK, abiotic stress, and gene expression. Beijing Forestry University was the top affiliation, while The Plant Cell was the top source. The genomics and metabolomics of this gene family require more study.

Abstract
Mungbean (Vigna radiata (L.) R. Wilczek) is an important legume crop of Asia. Salt concentrations typically causes major yield reductions in mungbean. Although the biochemical and genetic basis of salt tolerance-related gene are well studied in Arabidopsis and soybean, limited information concerning the salt tolerance-related genes in mungbean. To address this issue, we mined salt tolerance related genes using the survival rate trait and 160,1405 SNPs in 112 mungbean accessions. As a result, VrFRO8 significantly associated with salt-stress were identified in the GWAS analysis. The candidate gene VrFRO8 was evidenced by comparative genomics, transcriptome and RT-qPCR analysis. The expression level of VrFRO8 was significantly up-regulated (P-value = 0.001) after salt treatment compared with the control group. Moreover, 188 genes and 158 transcription factors related to salt-stress signal transduction pathway were mined, and 18 genes (18/188) had higher expression level in the salt-tolerant varieties than salt-sensitive varieties. And, the function of VrFRO8 was predicted in mungbean, the protein interaction between VrFRO8 and seven related-genes were found by molecular structure analysis. VrFRO8 might reduce SOD contents by influence Fe2+/Fe3+ ratio under the damage of salt stress. This study used multi-omics data to mine a key genes significantly associated with salt tolerance, and constructed a VrFRO8-related PPI network for salt tolerance, which would lay a solid foundation for further molecular biology research of VrFRO8 and mungbean breeding.

Abstract
The success in the response of plants to environmental stressors depends on the regulatory networks that connect plant perception and plant response. In these networks, phosphorylation is a key mechanism to activate or deactivate the proteins involved. Protein kinases are responsible for phosphorylations and play a very relevant role in transmitting the signals. Here, we review the present knowledge on the contribution of protein kinases to herbivore-triggered responses in plants, with a focus on the information related to the regulated kinases accompanying herbivory in Arabidopsis. A meta-analysis of transcriptomic responses revealed the importance of several kinase groups directly involved in the perception of the attacker or typically associated with the transmission of stress-related signals. To highlight the importance of these protein kinase families in the response to arthropod herbivores, a compilation of previous knowledge on their members is offered. When available, this information is compared with previous findings on their role against pathogens. Besides, knowledge of their homologous counterparts in other plant-herbivore interactions is provided. Altogether, these observations resemble the complexity of the kinase-related mechanisms involved in the plant response. Understanding how kinase-based pathways coordinate in response to a specific threat remains a major challenge for future research.

Abstract
The potato (Solanum tuberosum L.), one of the most important food crops worldwide, is sensitive to environmental stresses. Sensor–responder complexes comprising calcineurin B-like (CBL) proteins and CBL-interacting protein kinases (CIPKs) not only modulate plant growth and development but also mediate numerous stress responses. Here, using a Hidden Markov Model and BLAST searches, 27 CIPK genes were identified in potato and divided into five groups by phylogenetic analysis and into two clades (intron-poor and intron-rich) by gene structure analysis. Quantitative reverse-transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) assays revealed that StCIPK genes play important roles in plant growth, development and abiotic stress tolerance. Up-regulated expression of StCIPK10 was significantly induced by drought, PEG6000 and ABA. StCIPK10 enhances both the ability of potato to scavenge reactive oxygen species and the content of corresponding osmoregulation substances, thereby strengthening tolerance to drought and osmotic stress. StCIPK10 is located at the intersection between the abscisic acid and abiotic stress signaling pathways, which control both root growth and stomatal closure in potato. In addition, StCIPK10 interacts with StCBL1, StCBL4, StCBL6, StCBL7, StCBL8, StCBL11 and StCBL12, and is specifically recruited to the plasma membrane by StCBL11.

Abstract
AKT2 potassium (K+) channels are members of the plant Shaker family which mediate dual-directional K+ transport with weak voltage-dependency. Here we show that OsAKT2 of rice (Oryza sativa) functions mainly as an inward rectifier with strong voltage-dependency and acutely suppressed outward activity. This is attributed to the presence of a unique K191 residue in the S4 domain. The typical bi-directional leak-like property was restored by a single K191R mutation, indicating that this functional distinction is an intrinsic characteristic of OsAKT2. Furthermore, the opposite R195K mutation of AtAKT2 changed the channel to an inward-rectifier similar to OsAKT2. OsAKT2 was modulated by OsCBL1/OsCIPK23, evoking the outward activity and diminishing the inward current. The physiological relevance in relation to the rectification diversity of OsAKT2 was addressed by functional assembly in the Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) akt2 mutant. Overexpression (OE) of OsAKT2 complemented the K+ deficiency in the phloem sap and leaves of the mutant plants but did not significantly contribute to the transport of sugars. However, the expression of OsAKT2-K191R overcame both the shortage of phloem K+ and sucrose of the akt2 mutant, which was comparable to the effects of the OE of AtAKT2, while the expression of the inward mutation AtAKT2-R195K resembled the effects of OsAKT2. Additionally, OE of OsAKT2 ameliorated the salt tolerance of Arabidopsis.

Abstract
Adaptation to unfavorable abiotic stresses is one of the key processes in the evolution of plants. Calcium (Ca2+) signaling is characterized by the spatiotemporal pattern of Ca2+ distribution and the activities of multi-domain proteins in integrating environmental stimuli and cellular responses, which are crucial early events in abiotic stress responses in plants. However, a comprehensive summary and explanation for evolutionary and functional synergies in Ca2+ signaling remains elusive in green plants. We review mechanisms of Ca2+ membrane transporters and intracellular Ca2+ sensors with evolutionary imprinting and structural clues. These may provide molecular and bioinformatics insights for the functional analysis of some non-model species in the evolutionarily important green plant lineages. We summarize the chronological order, spatial location, and characteristics of Ca2+ functional proteins. Furthermore, we highlight the integral functions of calcium-signaling components in various nodes of the Ca2+ signaling pathway through conserved or variant evolutionary processes. These ultimately bridge the Ca2+ cascade reactions into regulatory networks, particularly in the hormonal signaling pathways. In summary, this review provides new perspectives towards a better understanding of the evolution, interaction and integration of Ca2+ signaling components in green plants, which is likely to benefit future research in agriculture, evolutionary biology, ecology and the environment.

Abstract
Calcium (Ca2+) is a universal second messenger essential for the growth and development of plants in normal and stress situations. In plants, the proteins, CBL (calcineurin B-like) and CIPK (CBL-interacting protein kinase), form one of the important Ca2+ decoding complexes to decipher Ca2+ signals elicited by environmental challenges. Multiple interactors distinguish CBL and CIPK protein family members to form a signaling network for regulated perception and transduction of environmental signals, e.g., signals generated under nutrient stress conditions. Conservation of equilibrium in response to varying soil nutrient status is an important aspect for plant vigor and yield. Signaling processes have been reported to observe nutrient fluctuations as a signal responsible for regulated nutrient transport adaptation. Recent studies have identified downstream targets of CBL-CIPK modules as ion channels or transporters and their association in signaling nutrient disposal including potassium, nitrate, ammonium, magnesium, zinc, boron, and iron. Ca2+-CBL-CIPK pathway modulates ion transporters/channels and hence maintains a homeostasis of several important plant nutrients in the cytosol and sub-cellular compartments. In this article, we summarize recent literature to discuss the role of the Ca2+-CBL-CIPK pathway in cellular osmoregulation and homeostasis on exposure to nutrient excess or deprived soils. This further establishes a link between taking up the nutrient in the roots and its distribution and homeostasis during the generation of signal for the development and survival of plants.

Abstract
The voltage-dependent anion channels (VDACs) are the most abundant proteins present on the outer mitochondrial membrane. They serve a myriad of functions ranging from energy and metabolite exchange to highly debatable roles in apoptosis. Their role in molecular transport puts them on the center stage as communicators between cytoplasmic and mitochondrial signaling events. Beyond their general role as interchangeable pores, members of this family may exhibit specific functions. Even after nearly five decades of their discovery, their role in plant systems is still a new and rapidly emerging field. The information on biochemical regulation of VDACs is limited. Various interacting proteins and post-translational modifications (PTMs) modulate VDAC functions, amongst these, phosphorylation is quite noticeable. In this review, we have tried to give a glimpse of the recent advancements in the biochemical/interactional regulation of plant VDACs. We also cover a critical analysis on the importance of PTMs in the functional regulation of VDACs. Besides, the review also encompasses numerous studies which can identify VDACs as a connecting link between Ca2+ and reactive oxygen species signaling in special reference to the plant systems.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Salinity stress in increasingly becoming a major challenge in current and expanding agricultural ecosystems. Unlike temporal abiotic stresses, plants are usually exposed to salinity stress for an entire lifespan. Therefore, a long term effect (10 weeks) of continuous salinity exposure was investigated for three common fig landraces (Zraki, Mwazi, and Khdari). Both relative water content and chlorophyll content decreased with elevated salinity stress, while stem length barely changed. The most prominent decline was observed in root biomass. The data would align common fig to moderately tolerant threshold slop with a C50 range of 100 to 150 mM NaCl. A high and significant correlation was evident between root biomass and chlorophyll content (85%). Concurrently, differential expression of putative salinity responsive genes in common fig were determined; signal peptide peptidase-like 2B (FcSPPL2B), dehydration responsive element binding protein (FcDREB), calcineurin B-like protein (CBL)-CBL-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 11 (FcCIPK11), sorbitol dehydrogenase (FcSORD) and dehydrin (FcDHN). The data were discussed for each gene in respect of its potential role in salinity stress mitigation. The combined physiological and molecular data would conclude Zraki as the most salinity tolerant genotype. The major implication of the data emphasizes the tremendous genotype by environment (salinity stress) interaction in common fig.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Salt stress is one of the most damaging abiotic stresses in production of Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum). Upland cotton is defined as a medium salt-tolerant crop. Salinity hinders root development, shoots growth, and reduces the fiber quality. RESULTS Our previous study verified a GhCIPK6a gene response to salt stress in G. hirsutum. The homologs of GhCIPK6a were analyzed in A2 (G. arboreum), D5 (G. raimondii), and AD1 (G. hirsutum) genomes. GhCIPK6a localized to the vacuole and cell membrane. The GhCBL1-GhCIPK6a and GhCBL8-GhCIPK6a complexes localized to the nucleus and cytomembrane. Overexpression of GhCIPK6a enhanced expression levels of co-expressed genes induced by salt stress, which scavenged ROS and involved in MAPK signaling pathways verified by RNA-seq analysis. Water absorption capacity and cell membrane stability of seeds from GhCIPK6a overexpressed lines was higher than that of wild-type seeds during imbibed germination stage. The seed germination rates and seedling field emergence percentages of GhCIPK6a overexpressed lines were higher than that of control line under salt stress. Moreover, overexpressing of GhCIPK6a in cotton increased lint percentage, and fiber length uniformity under salt stress. CONCLUSIONS We verified the function of GhCIPK6a by transformation and RNA-seq analysis. GhCIPK6a overexpressed lines exhibited higher tolerance to abiotic stresses, which functioned by involving in ROS scavenging and MAPK pathways. Therefore, GhCIPK6a has the potential for cotton breeding to improve stress-tolerance.

Abstract
Verticillium wilt is a plant vascular disease causing severe yield and quality losses in many crops and is caused by the soil-borne plant pathogenic fungus Verticillium dahliae. To investigate the molecular mechanisms of the cotton-V. dahliae interaction, a time-course phosphoproteomic analysis of roots of susceptible and resistant cotton lines in response to V. dahliae was performed. In total, 1716 unique phosphoproteins were identified in the susceptible (S) and resistant (R) cotton lines. Of these, 359 phosphoproteins were significantly different in R1 (1 day after V. dahliae inoculation) vs R0 (mock) group and 287 phosphoproteins in R2 (3 days after V. dahliae inoculation) vs R0 group. Moreover, 263 proteins of V. dahliae-regulated phosphoproteins were significantly changed in S1 (1 day after V. dahliae inoculation) vs S0 (mock) group and 197 proteins in S2 (3 days after V. dahliae inoculation) vs S0 group. Thirty phosphoproteins were significantly changed and common to the resistant and susceptible cotton lines following inoculation with V. dahliae. Specifically, 92 phosphoproteins were shared in both in R1 vs R0 and R2 vs R0 but not in susceptible cotton lines. There were 38 common phosphoproteins shared in both S1 vs S0 and S2 vs S0 but not in resistant cotton lines. GO terms and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analyses displayed an abundance of known and novel phosphoproteins related to plant-pathogen interactions, signal transduction, and metabolic processes, which were correlated with resistance against fungal infection. These data provide new perspectives and inspiration for understanding molecular defense mechanisms of cotton roots against V. dahliae infection.

Abstract
Low-temperature stress severely affects the growth, development, and geographical distribution of various crop plants, resulting in significant economic loss to producers. In a quest to identify cold-regulated genes, we constructed a cDNA suppression subtractive library from a high altitude adapted ecotype of Lepidium. We cloned a cold-induced gene LlaCIPK from the subtracted cDNA library which gave homology to Arabidopsis CIPK15 gene. The predicted 3D structure of LlaCIPK protein also showed homology with Arabidopsis CIPK protein. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis in Lepidium seedlings exposed to 6 h of cold stress shows a 3-fold increase in the expression of LlaCIPK transcript. The expression of LlaCIPK was also differentially regulated by ethylene, CaCl2, ABA, and SA treatments. Ethylene and CaCl2 treatments up regulated LlaCIPK expression, whereas ABA and SA treatments down regulated the LlaCIPK expression. Transgenic plants overexpressing LlaCIPK gene under constitutive promoter show an increased level of proline and cell membrane stability. Taken together, our results suggest that the LlaCIPK contributes to the cold-response pathway in Lepidium plants.

Abstract
It is important to understand molecular effects on plants exposed to compounds released from use of products containing engineered nanomaterials. Here, we present mRNA sequencing data on transcriptome impacts to Douglas-fir following 2 weeks of sublethal exposure to 30:1 diluted airborne emissions released from combustion of diesel fuel containing engineered CeO2 nanoparticle catalysts (DECe). Our hypothesis was that chamber exposure to DECe would induce distinct transcriptome changes in seedling needles compared with responses to conventional diesel exhaust (DE) or filtered DECe Gas Phase. Significantly increased uptake/binding of Ce in needles of DECe treated seedlings was 2.7X above background levels and was associated with altered gene expression patterns. All 225 Blast2GO gene ontologies (GOs) enriched by up-regulated DECe transcripts were nested within GOs for DE, however, 29 of 31 enriched GOs for down-regulated DECe transcripts were unique. MapMan analysis also identified three pathways enriched with DECe down-regulated transcripts. There was prominent representation of genes with attenuated expression in transferase, transporter, RNA regulation and protein degradation GOs and pathways. CeO2 nanoparticle additive decreased and shifted molecular impact of diesel emissions. Wide-spread use of such products and chronic environmental exposure to DECe may adversely affect plant physiology and development.

Abstract
Calcium (Ca2+) signaling is pivotal in transmission of information in the cell. Various Ca2+ sensing molecules work to sense and relay the encrypted messages to the intended targets in the cell to maintain this signal transduction. CBL-interacting protein kinases (CIPKs) are crucial components of Ca2+ signal transduction during various abiotic stresses. Although there are intron rich CIPKs in the plant genome but very little has been reported about their alternative splicing. Moreover the physiological significance of this event in the Ca2+ signaling is still elusive. Therefore in this study, we have selected CIPK3, which has highest number of splice variants amongst Arabidopsis CIPKs. Expression profiling of five splice variants of CIPK3 by qRT-PCR in four Arabidopsis thaliana ecotypes revealed preferential transcript accumulation but similar subcellular localization of the variants and interaction with similar CBLs. ABA and drought treatment resulted in the higher accumulation of the alternately spliced transcripts of CIPK3 in Arabidopsis ecotype Wassilewkija. The transcripts of CIPK3.1 and CIPK3.4 are relatively more induced compared to other alternative splice variants. Out of four splice variants studied, we found CIPK3.1 and CIPK3.2 showing preference for ABR1, a previously reported interactor of CIPK3. We conclude that the differential expression and choice of downstream partner by CIPK3-splice variants might be one of the mechanisms of Ca2+ mediated preferential regulation of ABA and other stress signals.

Abstract
The efficiency of stress-induced adaptive responses of plants depends on intricate coordination of multiple signal transduction pathways that act coordinately or, in some cases, antagonistically. Protein post-translational modifications (PTMs) can regulate protein activity and localization as well as protein-protein interactions in numerous cellular processes, thus leading to elaborate regulation of plant responses to various external stimuli. Understanding responses of crop plants under field conditions is crucial to design novel stress-tolerant cultivars that maintain robust homeostasis even under extreme conditions. In this review, proteomic studies of PTMs in crops are summarized. Although the research on the roles of crop PTMs in regulating stress response mechanisms is still in its early stage, several novel insights have been retrieved so far. This review covers techniques for detection of PTMs in plants, representative PTMs in plants under abiotic stress, and how PTMs control functions of representative proteins. In addition, because PTMs under abiotic stresses are well described in soybeans under submergence, recent findings in PTMs of soybean proteins under flooding stress are introduced. This review provides information on advances in PTM study in relation to plant adaptations to abiotic stresses, underlining the importance of PTM study to ensure adequate agricultural production in the future.
