Abstract
In nature, plants are routinely exposed to adverse environmental conditions, such as elevated temperature, drought, salinity, heavy metal, etc., which are among the main causes for declining crop productivity worldwide and lead to billions of dollars of annual losses (Dhankher and Foyer, 2018). These stressors negatively affect plant growth and development by inducing misfolding, denaturation, oxidation and aggregation of proteins. Evolutionally, plants have developed a comprehensive protein quality controlling system (PQCS) to maintain protein homeostasis, mainly including heat shock proteins (HSPs), unfolded protein response (UPR), ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) and autophagy. This research topic aims to summarize and report novel findings on the identification, functional analysis, signal transduction, transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation, and protein interaction of candidate components in the above systems.
