Abstract

Recent scientific advancements have significantly improved our understanding of plant signaling pathways under abiotic stress. However, further investigation is necessary to better comprehend the underlying mechanisms. Current research focuses on elucidating the role of key signaling components in plant stress responses. Crucial molecules, such as reactive oxygen species (ROS), nitric oxide (NO), calcium, and potassium, regulate stomatal closure and play pivotal roles in plant signaling pathways. This chapter explains the critical role of these factors in cold adaptation, drought resistance, and the regulation of stress-related genes. Furthermore, emerging evidence suggests complex interactions between various signaling pathways and the involvement of signaling molecules in regulating plant growth and development. This overview highlights recent advancements in understanding the initial stages of stress signaling and the functions of key signaling molecules in regulating plant responses to abiotic stress. It emphasizes the importance of investigating the early aspects of stress signaling and identifying primary stress sensors. An understanding of stress signaling mechanisms and the role of signaling molecules in plant responses is crucial for develo** precise interventions that enhance stress resilience in crops, ensure food security, and address the challenges posed by changing environmental conditions.
