Keywords: desiccation tolerance; homoiochlorophyllous; longevity; priming; senescence; subcellular glasses; sugars EN desiccation tolerance homoiochlorophyllous longevity priming senescence subcellular glasses sugars 1 3 3 07/24/20 20200721 NES 200721 It has been seven years since the Frontiers in Plant Science SI entitled "Current advances and challenges in understanding plant desiccation tolerance". It remains to be shown that these genomes contain a "footprint" of vegetative DT in comparison with desiccation sensitive species, since most of the latter produce desiccation tolerant seeds or spores. In a metabolomic study on the acquisition of DT in developing seeds of I Erythrina speciose i , Hell et al. also observed an early increase in raffinose content and establishment of DT, well before the major drop in relative water content (RWC).
