      Suzuki, Nobuhiro; Bassil, Elias; Hamilton, Jason S.; Inupakutika, Madhuri; I Zandalinas, Sara; Tripathy, Deesha; Luo, Yuting; Dion, Erin; Fukui, Ginga; Kumazaki, Ayana; Nakano, Ruka; Rivero, Rosa M; Verbeck, Guido F.; Azad, Rajeev K.; Blumwald, Eduardo; Mittler, Ron Public Library Science (2016-01-29)
      Abiotic stresses such as drought, heat or salinity are a major cause of yield loss worldwide. Recent studies revealed that the acclimation of plants to a combination of different environmental stresses is unique and cannot ...
    • openAccess   An isopentenyl transferase transgenic wheat isoline exhibits less seminal root growth impairment and a differential metabolite profile under Cd stress 

      Gomez Mansur, Nabila Maria; Pena, Liliana; Bossio, Adrián E.; Beznec, Ailin Yanina; Blumwald, Eduardo; Arbona, Vicent; Gomez-Cadenas, Aurelio; Benavides, María P.; Gallego, Susana M.; Lewi, Dalia M. Wiley (2021-02-25)
      Cadmium is one of the most important contaminants and it induces severe plant growth restriction. In this study, we analyzed the metabolic changes associated with root growth restriction caused by cadmium in the early ...

      Devireddy, Amith R.; I Zandalinas, Sara; Gomez-Cadenas, Aurelio; Blumwald, Eduardo; Mittler, Ron American Association for the Advancement of Science (2018)
      The plant canopy functions as an aerial array of light-harvesting antennas. To achieve maximal yield, each leaf within this array and the array as a whole need to rapidly adjust to naturally occurring fluctuations in light ...
    • openAccess   Developing climate-resilient crops: improving plant tolerance to stress combination 

      Rivero, Rosa M; Mittler, Ron; Blumwald, Eduardo; I Zandalinas, Sara Wiley (2021-09-05)
      Global warming and climate change are driving an alarming increase in the frequency and intensity of different abiotic stresses, such as droughts, heat waves, cold snaps, and flooding, negatively affecting crop yields and ...
