Plants living under natural conditions are exposed to many adverse factors that interfere with
the photosynthetic process, leading to declines in growth, development, and yield. The …

Chlorophyll (Chl) a fluorescence induction (transient), measured by exposing dark-adapted
samples to high light, shows a polyphasic rise, which has been the subject of extensive …

This paper aims to review the research achievements concerning sustainable sesame
(Sesamum indicum L.) production and outlook on the production constraints and future …

Field crops are frequently exposed to drought and high temperature in the field. As the stress
tolerance is the major target of many research and breeding programmes, the efficient and …

Croftonweed originated from Mexico is a worldwide notorious invasive weed. The objectives
of this study were to screen heat tolerance in different croftonweed populations, determine …

Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) is one of the oldest oilseed crops widely grown in Africa and
Asia for its high-quality nutritional seeds. It is well adapted to harsh environments and …

Persian walnut is a drought-sensitive species with considerable genetic variation in the
photosynthesis and water use efficiency of its populations, which is largely unexplored …

Plant species and cultivars have different physiological mechanisms in response to drought
stress. A biennial field experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of drought severities …

Genetic variation is the mainstay which plant breeders require to produce new and improved
cultivars. The opportunity of obtaining novel traits exists through induction of mutations …

In the present study, the mung bean cv. NM‐13‐1Tol was selected as drought‐tolerant and
NM‐54Sens as drought‐sensitive. The effects of progressive drought (16 days) on the …
