Plant species that exhibit vegetative desiccation tolerance can survive extreme desiccation for months and resume normal physiological activities upon re-watering. Here we survey the recent knowledge gathered from the sequenced genomes of angiosperm and non-angiosperm desiccation-tolerant plants (resurrection plants) and highlight some distinct genes and gene families that are central to the desiccation response. Furthermore, we review the vast amount of data accumulated from analyses of transcriptomes and metabolomes of resurrection species exposed to desiccation and subsequent rehydration, which allows us to build a systems biology view on the molecular and genetic mechanisms of desiccation tolerance in plants.
具有营养体干旱耐性的植物物种可以在极端干旱的条件下存活数月，并在重新浇水后恢复正常的生理活动。在这里，我们调查了从被子植物和非被子植物耐旱植物（复苏植物）的测序基因组中收集到的最新知识，并强调了一些对干旱反应至关重要的独特基因和基因家族。此外，我们还回顾了从对复苏物种进行干旱和随后再水合处理的转录组和代谢组分析中积累的大量数据，这使我们能够建立一个关于植物干旱耐性的分子和遗传机制的系统生物学观点。
