Inducing drought tolerance in plants: recent advances.
Undoubtedly, drought is one of the prime abiotic stresses in the world. Crop yield losses due to drought stress are considerable. Although a variety of approaches have been used to alleviate the problem of drought, plant breeding, either conventional breeding or genetic engineering, seems to be an efficient and economic means of tailoring crops to enable them to grow successfully in drought-pro...
متن کاملEffect of Drought in the Osmotic Adjustment of Cotton Plants
Water is crucial for crop growth and productivity. Cotton metabolism and yield are compromised under drought conditions, especially at flowering stage. Differences in drought tolerance exist among cultivars but the metabolic reasons for this that could be used to find traits for enhancing drought tolerance have not been clearly elucidated. Under drought stress, osmotic adjustment occurs in plan...
متن کاملRheumatic Heart Disease in the Bombay Deccan
By L. B. CARRUTHERS, b.a., m.d., c.m. American Presbyterian Hospital, Miraj, S. M. C. ' he conception that rheumatic fever and its concomitants are rare or entirely unknown within the true tropics has long been in favour. Seemingly it received strong confirmation when Clarke (*1930) published his notable paper on the geographical distribution of rheumatic fever. Rogers and Megaw (1930) in India...
متن کاملGenetics and genetic improvement of drought resistance in crop plants
Drought limits the agricultural production by preventing the crop plants from expressing their full genetic potential. Three mechanisms, namely drought escape, drought avoidance and drought tolerance are involved in drought resistance. Various morphological, physiological and biochemical characters confer drought resistance. Morphological and physiological characters show different types of inh...
متن کاملSalt and drought stress signal transduction in plants.
Salt and drought stress signal transduction consists of ionic and osmotic homeostasis signaling pathways, detoxification (i.e., damage control and repair) response pathways, and pathways for growth regulation. The ionic aspect of salt stress is signaled via the SOS pathway where a calcium-responsive SOS3-SOS2 protein kinase complex controls the expression and activity of ion transporters such a...
