Abstract

Starting from the reviews published by this
journal and the Journal of Plant Growth Regulation in 2001
and 2003, respectively, this paper discusses updated
international information on brassinosteroids and plant
responses to abiotic stress, such as heat, water, saline and
heavy metal stresses. This review also presents the advances
of this subject obtained in Cuba, both by applying
24-epibrassinolide and some spirostane analogues, as well as
the response of tomato genotypes with different castasterone
contents to high temperature stress.
