Structure, evolution, and roles of MYB transcription factors proteins in secondary metabolite biosynthetic pathways and abiotic stresses responses in plants: a comprehensive review.

ABSTRACT: Unlike mobile organisms, plants are sessile and thus more vulnerable to environmental stressors. Among these, abiotic stress represents a major constraint that profoundly affects plant growth and development. To cope with these challenges, plants have evolved sophisticated adaptive mechanisms to enhance their stress resilience. Transcription factors (TFs) play a pivotal role in these adaptive processes, as they are activated by diverse stress signals and subsequently modulate the expression of stress-responsive genes, thereby improving plant survival under adverse conditions. The MYB TF family, one of the largest TF families in plants, participates in regulating various biological processes, including growth and development, phytohormone signaling, secondary metabolism and abiotic stress r
