Plants cannot move, so they must endure abiotic stresses such as drought, salinity and extreme temperatures. These stressors greatly limit the distribution of plants, alter their growth and development, and reduce crop productivity. Recent progress in our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the responses of plants to abiotic stresses emphasizes their multilevel nature; multiple processes are involved, including sensing, signalling, transcription, transcript processing, translation and post-translational protein modifications. This improved knowledge can be used to boost crop productivity and agricultural sustainability through genetic, chemical and microbial approaches.
植物无法移动，因此它们必须忍受诸如干旱、盐度和极端温度等非生物胁迫。这些胁迫因子极大地限制了植物的分布，改变了它们的生长发育，并降低了作物产量。我们对植物应对非生物胁迫的分子机制的理解取得了最新进展，这凸显了其多层次的性质；涉及多个过程，包括感知、信号传导、转录、转录后加工、翻译以及翻译后蛋白质修饰。这些增进的知识可用于通过遗传、化学和微生物方法提高作物产量和农业可持续性。
