Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
• Melatonin acts as a potent antioxidant and signalling molecule enhancing plant resilience to abiotic and biotic stresses. • It regulates oxidative stress by scavenging ROS/RNS and modulating antioxidant enzyme activities. • Melatonin interacts with key phytohormones and stress-responsive genes to orchestrate adaptive plant responses. • Its biosynthesis occurs in multiple organelles including cytoplasm, chloroplasts, and mitochondria. • Future research into melatonin transport, receptor signalling, and metabolites is crucial for sustainable crop improvement.
