Is proline accumulation per se correlated with stress tolerance or is proline homeostasis a more critical issue?

Proline has been recognized as a multi‐functional molecule, accumulating in high concentrations in response to a variety of abiotic stresses. It is able to protect cells from damage by acting as both an osmotic agent and a radical scavenger. Proline accumulated during a stress episode is degraded to...
