This review deals with the adaptive mechanisms that plants can implement to cope with the
challenge of salt stress. Plants tolerant to NaCl implement a series of adaptations to …

Plants grow in dynamic environments where they can be exposed to a multitude of stressful
factors, all of which affect their development, yield, and, ultimately, reproductive success …

Mesophyll diffusion conductance to CO2 is a key photosynthetic trait that has been studied
intensively in the past years. The intention of the present review is to update knowledge of …

SURFEX is a new externalized land and ocean surface platform that describes the surface
fluxes and the evolution of four types of surfaces: nature, town, inland water and ocean. It is …

Foliage photosynthetic and structural traits were studied in 15 species with a wide range of
foliage anatomies to gain insight into the importance of key anatomical traits in the limitation …

Stomatal conductance (gs) and mesophyll conductance (gm) represent major constraints to
photosynthetic rate (A), and these traits are expected to coordinate with leaf hydraulic …

Abstract The hybrid Richter-110 (Vitis berlandieri× Vitis rupestris) has the reputation of being
a genotype strongly adapted to drought. A study was performed with plants of R-110 …

The global shortage of fresh water is one of our most severe agricultural problems, leading
to dry and saline lands that reduce plant growth and crop yield. Here we review recent work …

In order to understand the role of cytosolic antioxidant enzymes in drought stress protection,
transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum cv. Xanthi) plants overexpressing cytosolic Cu/Zn …

Ferns and fern allies have low photosynthetic rates compared with seed plants. Their
photosynthesis is thought to be limited principally by physical CO 2 diffusion from the …
