Plants are negatively impacted by cold stress, which reduces agricultural productivity. It causes alterations in the cells leading to reduced metabolic activity, oxidative damage, growth restriction, and ultimately crop yield loss. When cold stress is sensed by plant cells, transcription factors and genes linked to the cold response are activated, enhancing the plant's ability to withstand cold. Cold-affected crops exhibit several responses, such as signaling compound synthesis, carbohydrate accumulation after chilling, and altered gene regulation. Pangenomics, a useful method for researching genomic evolutionary processes, species origin, domestication, and plant enhancement may capture an immense amount of genetic variation within a species or population. Pangenomics research has evolved tremendously due to enormous reductions in sequencing costs and major advancements in sequencing technology. Its concept, current developments, and applications for developing cold-tolerant plants are described in this chapter. Opportunities for more pangenomics research are also discussed in this study.
