Reviews for plant stress-resistance promoting related to brassinolides

Brassinosteroids(BRs)have been widely applied in agriculture and forestry.In recent ten years,many research reports have been obtained about BRs promoting stress resistance of plants.This paper mainly reviewed the research progress of BRs on stress resistance(including drought-resistance,humidity-resistance,cold-resistance,heat-resistance,salt-resistance,drug-resistance and disease-resistance)and consenescence regulation of plants.
