Enhanced abiotic stresses such as increased drought, elevated temperatures, salinity, and extreme weather phenomena severely affect major crops in the Mediterranean area, a ‘hot spot’ of climate change. Plants have evolved mechanisms to face stressful conditions adapt environmental pressures. Intricate molecular processes involving genetic epigenetic factors plant–microbe interactions been implicated response tolerance stress. Deciphering whereby plants perceive respond stress is crucial for developing strategies counteract challenges. Progress determining genes, complex gene networks, biochemical pathways, well plant–microbiota crosstalk, involved has achieved through application tools diverse resources. This knowledge could be particularly useful accelerating plant improvement generating resilient varieties, especially concerning woody perennial crops, where classical breeding lengthy labor-intensive process. Similarly, understanding provide insights into innovative approaches facing conditions. In this review, we comprehensive overview discuss recent findings genetic, epigenetic, microbial aspects shaping responses, context enhancing resilience important fruit crops.
