Abstract: As a small gaseous signal molecule, the roles of nitric oxide (NO) in plants have been widely studied in recent years. Especially, much progress has been made in the mechanisms of plant NO production and its mechanism of action during adventitious root development in plants. This paper mainly reviewed four aspects: the production pathway of NO in plants, the roles of NO and its interactions with other signaling molecules during adventitious rooting in plants, the NO-regulated genes expression during adventitious rooting, the perspectives of the studies about NO in adventitious root development in plants. The aim of this review was to provide theoretical references for the application of NO in adventitious rooting of plants.

Key words: nitric oxide, plant, adventitious rooting, molecular interaction, gene expression
