Abiotic stresses increasingly threaten existing ecological and agricultural systems across the
globe. Plant roots perceive these stresses in the soil and adapt their architecture …

Drought stress negatively affects crop performance and weakens global food security. It
triggers the activation of downstream pathways, mainly through phytohormones …

Plants encounter various abiotic stresses under field conditions. Among them, drought stress
adversely affects crop productivity and threatens global food security. Drought stress triggers …

Lignin is a complex polymer that is embedded in plant cell walls to provide physical support
and water protection. For these reasons, the production of lignin is closely linked with plant …

Drought stress leads to a significant amount of agricultural crop loss. Thus, with changing
climatic conditions, it is important to develop resilience measures in agricultural systems …

Lignin is a complex phenolic polymer that forms interwoven networks in the cell wall and is
crucial to plant development and stress responses. The root tissues of safflower contain a …

Plants deposit lignin in the secondary cell wall as a common response to drought and
pathogen attacks. Cell wall localised multicopper oxidase family enzymes LACCASES …

Human activity has contributed to global warming both in the past and in the present,
resulting in drought stress that have an impact on both plants and animals. Because plants …

Drought represents one of the most devastating environmental challenges, exerting
deleterious effects on agricultural productivity worldwide. Plants are particularly susceptible …

Secondary lignification of the root exodermis of Kandelia obovata is crucial for its response
