Abstract: Hydrogen sulfide has been found to be the third gas messenger after nitric oxide and carbon monoxide. Recent results indicated that hydrogen sulfide plays a very important function in plant physiological processes. In this paper, Research advances of hydrogen sulfide biosynthetic pathways in plant and physiological functions and mechanism were summarized, which involved in regulating stomatal closure, seed germination, root development, mineral stress, plant disease, drought, regulation of plant senescence and some other physiological processes. Suggestions were put forward that hydrogen sulfide signaling functions and regulation mechanism with modern biotechnologies need more investigation.
