Epigenetic regulation and ROS signaling in plant stress adaptation: an integrated framework

This review examines the bidirectional interactions between epigenetic mechanisms and ROS homeostasis in plant stress adaptation, with a particular emphasis on drought resistance, and proposes that these interactions take the form of dynamic regulatory networks rather than one-way pathways.

THE EPIGENETIC LANDSCAPE OF THERMOTOLERANCE: HISTONE MODIFICATIONS AND DNA METHYLATION IN PLANT ADAPTATION TO HEAT STRESS

The crucial role of epigenetic mechanisms in mediating plant adaptation and acquired thermotolerance to detrimental heat stress and transmission of some of these adaptive marks from parents could represent a mechanism for transgenerational epigenetic inheritance of thermo tolerance.

Epigenetic Stress Memory and Adaptive Responses in Plants: Metabolic Reprogramming, Organelle Signalling and Systemic Acclimation.

This review synthesizes these layers into a unified framework and argues that plant resilience under fluctuating environments depends on the interaction between stress memory, metabolic plasticity, organelle-derived signalling and systemic acquired acclimation.

Regulation of lipid metabolism by epigenetic mechanisms. Application to microalgae.

Overall, available studies indicate that epigenetic regulation contributes to both environmental acclimation and metabolic rewiring in microalgae, but direct causal links to lipid productivity remain limited to a small number of systems.
