Response Mechanism of Plants to Drought Stress

potassium nutritional status affects physiological response of tamarillo plants (cyphomandra betacea cav.) to drought stress

cyphomandra betacea (cav.) is a native species from south america that is cultivated because its fruits have a high content of vitamins. in colombia, it is common to find periods of drought between the rainy seasons or during enso events such as el niño. an adequate nutritional status of k+ in plants helps to increase the chance of tolerating the negative effects of drought stress. regarding th...

Evaluation of Biochemical Response and Defense Mechanism of Wheat Antioxidant Enzymes to Salinity Stress

  Understanding the reaction form and biochemical response of wheat cultivars about the salinity stress can help to better understand the defense mechanisms and identify the indicators and biomarkers of tolerance screening for salinity stress in this strategic plant and other field crop. For this purpose, biochemical traits related to salinity tolerance of wheat cultivars were evaluated as a f...

Transcription Factors and Plants Response to Drought Stress: Current Understanding and Future Directions

Increasing vulnerability of plants to a variety of stresses such as drought, salt and extreme temperatures poses a global threat to sustained growth and productivity of major crops. Of these stresses, drought represents a considerable threat to plant growth and development. In view of this, developing staple food cultivars with improved drought tolerance emerges as the most sustainable solution...

Programmed Cell Death as a Response to High Light, UV and Drought Stress in Plants

Evaluation of Morphophysiological Response of Teucrium polium L. to Drought Stress

Among the environmental barriers to plant growth and yield, drought, an icon of arid and semi-arid regions is the most important factor in reducing production. Teucrium polium L. is one of the most important medicinal plants of the family Lamiaceae that exists in these areas. In order to study the effect of drought stress on some physiological and morphological traits of Teucrium polium L., an ...
