Sexual reproduction in plants is a tightly coordinated process that underpins biodiversity, drives speciation, and serves as a foundation for modern crop improvement. Here, we synthesize recent advances in elucidating the molecular mechanisms governing major reproductive events in flowering plants, including male and f...

This review synthesizes current knowledge of how high temperature affects plant reproduction from floral initiation to seed formation and summarize the underlying molecular mechanisms, including heat sensing, proteostasis, redox regulation, metabolism, and hormonal control.

Global warming has increased the frequency and intensity of extreme heat events, threatening crop productivity and food security. Plant reproductive development is particularly vulnerable to high temperature, and even brief heat episodes can markedly reduce seed set. Heat stress disrupts multiple reproductive stages, i...
