摘要

Plants are continuously dealing with a dynamic range of environmental cues, including drought, salt, temperature fluctuations, and pathogen attacks, prompting immediate and coordinated molecular responses. Transcriptomic reprogramming is the mechanism that allows plants to modify their gene expression profiles in response to internal and external stimuli, and it is necessary for regulating these adaptive responses. This chapter explores the mechanisms that regulate transcriptome reprogramming in plants, focusing on essential players such as transcription factors, noncoding RNAs, epigenetic modifications, and hormonal interactions. We address the role of these regulatory networks in controlling plant growth, development, and adaptation to stress, especially in response to both abiotic and biotic stresses. Additionally, we discuss the applications of transcriptome reprogramming knowledge in plant biotechnology, highlighting its potential for developing crops with enhanced stress tolerance via genetic engineering and synthetic biology methodologies.
