Plants possess sophisticated DNA repair mechanisms that safeguard their genetic material from damage caused by environmental stressors, such as ultraviolet light and chemical pollutants. Key pathways, including base excision repair (BER) and homologous recombination (HR), work to identify and rectify DNA lesions. The efficiency of these repair processes is vital for maintaining genomic stability and ensuring proper growth and development. Research into plant DNA repair mechanisms reveals how plants cope with stress and adapt over time. Advances in understanding these processes are particularly relevant for biotechnological applications, where enhancing DNA repair can improve plant resilience against various environmental challenges and optimize gene editing techniques.
