Increasing population and subsequent food requirement puts a lot of onus on agriculture
worldwide. However, agricultural output is constantly influenced by several factors such as …

Drought is one of the major constraints to rain-fed agricultural production, especially under
climate change conditions. Plants evolved an array of adaptive strategies that perceive …

ABA Insensitive 5 (ABI5) is a basic leucine zipper transcription factor that plays a key role in
the regulation of seed germination and early seedling growth in the presence of ABA and …

Abiotic stress significantly limits plant growth and production. Drought, in particular, is a
severe constraint that affects growth and limits agricultural productivity on a global scale …

Cellular sugar status is essentially maintained during normal growth conditions but is
impacted negatively during various environmental perturbations. Drought presents one such …

Plants serve as host to numerous microorganisms. The members of these microbial
communities interact among each other and with the plant, and there is increasing evidence …

Drought stress is a major limitation in enhancing agricultural productivity to fulfill the food
demand for the world's population. Fertigation of plants with a variety of biochemicals is …

Drought is the most important environmental stress limiting crop yields. The C4 cereal
sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] is a critical food, forage, and emerging bioenergy …

Drought limits crop development and yields. bHLH (basic helix–loop–helix) transcription
factors play critical roles in regulating the drought response in many plants, but their roles in …

Foxtail millet (Setaria italica) originated in China and is generally cultivated in arid and
barren soil. Through long-term harsh environmental selection, foxtail millet has acquired …
