Abstract
Recent findings expanded our knowledge about plant redox regulation in stress responses by demonstrating that redox processes exert crucial nuclear regulatory functions in meristems and other developmental processes. Analyses of redox-modulated transcription factor functions and coregulatory ROXYs, CC-type land-plant specific glutaredoxins, reveal new insights into the redox control of plant transcription factors and participation of ROXYs in plant development. The role for ROS and redox signaling in response to low-oxygen conditions further strengthens the importance of redox processes in meristems and tissue differentiation as well as for adaptation to changing environments effecting food crop productivity.
