ROS signatures are presented as distinct patterns of ROS levels and redox states across subcellular compartments. The review proposes that these signatures help determine the specificity of plant acclimation responses to different abiotic stresses.

Different plant subcellular compartments maintain distinct steady-state ROS levels and redox states, giving rise to compartment-specific ROS signatures.
Because each subcellular compartment in plants contains its own set of ROS-producing and ROS-scavenging pathways, the steady-state level of ROS, as well as the redox state of each compartment, is different at any given time giving rise to a distinct signature of ROS levels at the different compartments of the cell.
ROS are beneficial to plants during abiotic stress when cells maintain sufficient energy reserves to detoxify ROS.
as long as cells maintain high enough energy reserves to detoxify ROS, ROS is beneficial to plants during abiotic stress enabling them to adjust their metabolism and mount a proper acclimation response
Reactive oxygen species play a key role in plant acclimation to abiotic stress.
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a key role in the acclimation process of plants to abiotic stress.
Reactive oxygen species function as signal transduction molecules during plant acclimation to stress, while also being toxic byproducts of stress metabolism.
They primarily function as signal transduction molecules that regulate different pathways during plant acclimation to stress, but are also toxic byproducts of stress metabolism.
Different abiotic stresses such as drought, heat, salinity, and high light produce different ROS signatures that determine acclimation specificity.
different abiotic stresses, such as drought, heat, salinity and high light, result in different ROS signatures that determine the specificity of the acclimation response and help tailor it to the exact stress the plant encounters
