As sessile organisms plants must cope with ever changing environmental conditions. To survive plants have evolved elaborate mechanisms to perceive and rapidly respond to a diverse range of abiotic and biotic stresses. Central to this response is the ability to modulate gene expression at both the transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels. This review will focus on recent progress that has been made towards understanding the rapid reprogramming of the transcriptome that occurs in response to stress as well as emerging mechanisms underpinning the reprogramming of gene expression in response to stress.
作为固着生物，植物必须应对不断变化的环境条件。为了生存，植物已经进化出了精细的机制来感知和快速应对各种非生物和生物胁迫。其中的核心是在转录和转录后水平上调节基因表达的能力。这篇综述将重点介绍在理解应激反应中转录组快速重编程方面所取得的最新进展，以及应激反应中基因表达重编程的新兴机制。
