Advances in studies on stress resistance characteristics and the related functional genes of Racomitrium plants
As the pioneer plants in the process of plant evolution,bryophytes have special adaptive mechanisms to cope with environmental changes,can grow in the extreme environment where other plants cannot.Racomitrium plants are typical desiccation-tolerant mosses,can grow on the bare rock surfaces and sandy soils.Racomitrium plants are widely distributed all over the world,the researches on stress resistance and the mining of stress resistance genes of the Racomitrium plants have been attracted more and more attention,and some progresses had been made up to now,many genes of the Racomitrium plants have been cloned and their functions of drought resistance and high temperature resistance have been verified.The stress resistance of Racomitrium plants in recent years was summarized,including drought resistance,high temperature resistance,heavy metal enrichment,and other aspects,in order to provide references for subsequent researches on stress resistance of Racomitrium plants.
