Autophagy deficiency confers freezing tolerance in Arabidopsis thaliana

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Plants have evolved multiple strategies to cope with the ever-changing external environment. Autophagy, as one of the crucial mechanisms involved, has been demonstrated to play a pivotal role in plant responses and adaptation to abiotic stresses. However, the precise molecular mechanisms underlying the role of autophagy in mediating cold stress remain to be fully elucidated. RESULTS: In this study, we...
