Abscisic Acid and Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Crop Plants
Abiotic stress is a primary threat to fulfill the demand of agricultural production to feed the world in coming decades. Plants reduce growth and development process during stress conditions, which ultimately affect the yield. In stress conditions, plants develop various stress mechanism to face the magnitude of stress challenges, although that is not enough to protect them. Therefore, many str...
متن کاملRole of Plant Transcription Factors in Abiotic Stress Tolerance
Plants are constantly exposed to a wide range of environmental stresses such as drought, high salt, heat and extremes of temperature. Growth constraints due to these abiotic stresses result in reduced productivity and significant crop losses globally. Drought and salinity affect more than 10% of arable land, which results in more than 50% decline in the average yields of important crops worldwi...
متن کاملMicroRNAs As Potential Targets for Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Plants
The microRNAs (miRNAs) are small (20-24 nt) sized, non-coding, single stranded riboregulator RNAs abundant in higher organisms. Recent findings have established that plants assign miRNAs as critical post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression in sequence-specific manner to respond to numerous abiotic stresses they face during their growth cycle. These small RNAs regulate gene expression ...
متن کاملRice Genetic Improvement for Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Africa
144 (eds M.C.S. Wopereis et al.) Crop and water management can be improved through efficient irrigation schemes, better infrastructure and hydrological control, and optimal use of fertilizers, which can alleviate some of the effects of abiotic stresses. These measures are effective in reducing yield losses, and most improved varieties are responsive to such measures, consequently stabilizing pr...
متن کاملPhenotyping for abiotic stress tolerance in maize.
The ability to quickly develop germplasm having tolerance to several complex polygenic inherited abiotic and biotic stresses combined is critical to the resilience of cropping systems in the face of climate change. Molecular breeding offers the tools to accelerate cereal breeding; however, suitable phenotyping protocols are essential to ensure that the much-anticipated benefits of molecular bre...
