Melatonin is considered a multifunctional stress metabolite and novel plant hormone affecting seed germination, root architecture, circadian rhythms, leaf senescence, fruit ripening. functions related to adaptation stimuli of various natures are especially important. One the key components melatonin’s stress-protective action its ability neutralise reactive oxygen species (ROS) nitrogen directly. However, many effects involvement in signalling network cells influence on expression large number genes important for adverse factors. Insights into functional relationships melatonin with gasotransmitters (GT) – gaseous molecules performing still emerging. This review has analysed summarised experimental data that testify participation main GTs nitric oxide, hydrogen sulfide, carbon monoxide implementation protective effect when plants exposed abiotic nature. In addition, modulation by one most ROS post-translational modifications proteins synthesis under conditions specific physiological exogenous have been reviewed. Finally, prospects GTs’ practical application achieve synergistic considered.
