XERICO as a target for engineering stress-resilient crops: Mechanisms, applications, and future directions

초록

XERICO's capacity to enhance ABA-driven stress responses across diverse crops, its regulatory crosstalk with other hormonal pathways, and its compatibility with advanced genetic engineering tools highlight its central role in sustainable agriculture. Leveraging XERICO in crop improvement programs aligns with the urgent need to mitigate the impacts of climate-induced stress in agriculture, offering a pathway toward resilient and high-yielding crops. By enabling crops to withstand drought and other environmental stresses, XERICO-based biotechnological approaches hold transformative potential for global food security and environmental sustainability.
