Drought escape (DE) is a classical adaptive mechanism which involves rapid plant
development to enable the completion of the full life-cycle prior to a coming drought event …

Plant metabolism is perturbed by various abiotic stresses. As such the metabolic network of
plants must be reconfigured under stress conditions in order to allow both the maintenance …

Metabolites reflect the integration of gene expression, protein interaction and other different
regulatory processes and are therefore closer to the phenotype than mRNA transcripts or …

Selenium (Se) has been reported to mitigate abiotic stress effects on various plant species,
including drought. This study aimed at exploring the potential impacts of Se applied at three …

Non-irrigated crops in temperate climates and irrigated crops in arid climates are subjected
to continuous cycles of water stress and re-watering. Thus, fast and efficient recovery from …

The drought-escape response accelerates flowering in response to drought stress, allowing
plants to adaptively shorten their life cycles. Abscisic acid (ABA) mediates plant responses to …

Correlations between gene expression and metabolite/phytohormone levels under abiotic
stress conditions have been reported for Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). However, little …

In order to analyze the molecular mechanisms underlying the responses of plants to different
levels of drought stress, we developed a soil matric potential (SMP)‐based irrigation system …

Modulation of the transition to flowering plays an important role in the adaptation to drought.
The drought-escape (DE) response allows plants to adaptively shorten their life cycle to …

Phytohormones are essential signalling molecules globally regulating many processes of
plants, including their growth, development, and stress responses. The promotion of growth …
