Abstract
In the current context of global warming, high temperature events are becoming more frequent and intense in many places around the world. In this context, understanding how plants sense and respond to heat is essential to develop new tools to prevent plant damage and address global food security, as high temperature events are threatening agricultural sustainability. This review summarizes and integrates our current understanding underlying the cellular, physiological, biochemical and molecular regulatory pathways triggered in plants under moderately high and extremely high temperature conditions. Given that extremely high temperatures can also trigger ferroptosis, the study of this cell death mechanism constitutes a strategic approach to understand how plants might overcome otherwise lethal temperature events.
