Transcription factors (TFs) are vital protein molecules involved in biological processes such as
growth, development, and the organism’s response to environmental variables. These protein mole-
cules bind to DNA regulatory sequences and regulate the unique expression of each gene in differ-
ent cell types and during different developmental phases. Analysis and understanding of TF
expression and activities can help researchers establish the significance of their roles in various bio-
logical processes. Scientific exploration and understanding of TFs and their gene regulation is one
of the most dynamic fields of research and technical advancements, giving a wide scope to compile
what is known, what is not known, and how the known facts can be harnessed for future research.
The principal aim of the book Plant Transcription Factors: Contribution in Development,
Metabolism, and Environmental Stress is to provide a resource comprising significant facets of TFs
in plant biology.
The book intends to provide a methodological reserve highlighting several stirring advance-
ments that may strengthen and expand the reader’s knowledge base of the complexity of transcrip-
tional controls of biological processes. The book comprises four sections and includes chapters that
focus on the recent scientific explorations on general aspects of plant TFs and their contribution to
plant development, metabolic processes, and stress management. The chapters compile existing key
concepts as well as advanced information important for better insight into TF targeting and speci-
ficity, the properties of regulatory sequence, and mechanisms of TF action, and present a plant TF
information repertoire. The topics selected are diverse from those included in other methodologi-
cally oriented books on transcriptional regulation of plant biological processes.
Section I of the book includes two chapters (Chapters 1 and 2) that comprise a comprehensive
overview of TFs and their role in plant life. Chapter 1 gives general, yet updated information on
the types of plant TFs. Chapter 2 discusses the role of plant TFs in the adaption of millet in arid
lands.
Section II encompasses Chapters 38, which focus on transcriptional regulation on plant develop-
ment in organogenesis (root, meristem, leaves, fruit, and nodule development) and light-regulated
developments. This section provides current knowledge on the biological functions performed by
various plant TFs and explores the existing molecular data to illustrate how they exert their roles
during plant development.
Section III consists of four chapters (Chapters 912) that comprehensively discuss plant TFs
associated with biochemical changes (biosynthesis and regulation of secondary metabolites such as
alkaloids, flavonoids, and terpenes) and biochemical developments (such as iron homeostasis). This
section sheds light on transcriptional regulation of various biosynthetic pathway genes and signal-
ing cascades to perform highly orchestrated biological functions at the molecular level.
Section IV (Chapters 1320) focuses on plant TFs associated with stress management and miti-
gation that subsequently leads to stress tolerance and survival of plants. Stress, both biotic and abi-
otic, causes severe damage to all plants; however, the extent of damage depends upon the growth
stage and developmental phase of plants. Chapters in this section cover critical discussions and
cross-talks on molecular regulatory strategies of plants, with particular reference to crops to main-
tain vital physiological activities for their survival under various biotic and abiotic stresses during
specific growth stages and developmental phases.

We express our gratitude to all the authors for their outstanding and cutting-edge contributions
to the book. In some instances, this book represents the most current insights, scientific opinions,
and perspectives into the transcriptional regulation of various plant processes, underscoring the
authors’ generosity in sharing their very recent scientific progress in a bench-side reference format.
We would also like to take this opportunity to acknowledge the reviewers of Plant Transcription
Factors: Contribution in Development, Metabolism, and Environmental Stress for their generous
help and suggestions while reviewing chapter manuscripts. We hope this book is a timely contribu-
tion that will serve as an information reserve for the current and next generation of academicians
and scientists working to decipher the mysteries of plant biology by studying the intricate nature of
transcriptional regulation.

1.1 Introduction
Transcription factors (TFs) are the master regulator of gene expression and are mainly associated
with plant development, metabolism, and stress management (Yang et al., 2012; Mishra et al.,
2013; Srivastava and Verma, 2015; Srivastava et al., 2017; Baillo et al., 2019). TFs perform gene
regulatory activities by binding to local or distal cis-elements (commonly known as
DNA-binding sites) of genes associated with various biological functions. Once a TF binds on
the DNA binding site of a particular DNA sequence, it brings out the activation or repression
activity through its activator or repressor domains, respectively. TFs may also have other domains
that interact with other proteins, such as other TFs, signaling molecules, etc., which adds to their
functional diversity (Phillips and Hoopes, 2008). For instance, the posttranslational modification
(phosphorylation) of several TFs has been associated with the MAPK cascade system (Guan
et al., 2014). Though TFs are considered the central regulators of the biological functions of plant
life, they are also regulated significantly under diverse internal and external stimuli (Srivastava
and Verma, 2015; Kumar et al., 2016). Further, many plant TFs are known to regulate multiple
functions. For instance, the significance of WRKY and AP2 are reported in stress tolerance and
the regulation of plant-specific metabolism (Mishra et al., 2013, 2015; Kumar et al., 2016). A sig-
nificant portion of the plant genome encodes for TFs, as reported in the case of Arabidopsis,
where .5% of the genes in the genome encodes TFs (Arabidopsis Genome Project; Riechmann
and Ratcliffe, 2000). Hawkins et al. (2021) generated the genome-scale metabolic pathway data-
bases of 126 algal and plant genomes, including model crops and medicinal plants, considering
the significance of TFs. Due to the pivotal role of TFs in the regulation of several molecular
events of plant biology, understanding their functional diversity is immensely important and rele-
vant for exploring the molecular biology of plants. Therefore, this book explores plant TFs and
their functional potential and significance including updated scientific research on TFs.
