Recent studies, however, have significantly broadened this view, revealing that HSFs function as versatile transcriptional regulators orchestrating plant adaptation to a wide range of abiotic and biotic stresses.
Heat shock transcription factors mediate thermotolerance via activation of heat shock proteins.
Quoted textsource-backed
Heat shock transcription factors (HSFs) have long been recognized for their essential role in mediating thermotolerance via the activation of heat shock proteins (HSPs).
Many plant HSFs confer tolerance to drought, cold, salinity, oxidative stress, and pathogen attack through crosstalk with hormonal and redox signaling pathways and MAPK-mediated phosphorylation.
Quoted textsource-backed
Evidence from both model and crop species demonstrates that many HSFs confer tolerance to a broad range of stresses, including drought, cold, salinity, oxidative stress, and pathogen attack, through intricate crosstalk with hormonal (e.g., ABA, SA, JA) and redox signaling pathways, as well as MAPK-mediated phosphorylation.
