Cytokinins induce transcriptional reprograming and improve Arabidopsis plant performance under drought and salt stress conditions.

In nature, annual plants respond to abiotic stresses by activating a specific genetic program leading to early flowering and accelerated senescence. Although, in nature, this phenomenon supports survival under unfavorable environmental conditions, it may have negative agro-economic impacts on crop p...
