Climate change-induced abiotic stress results in crop yield and production losses. These
stresses result in changes at the physiological and molecular level that affect the …

Water deficiency compromises plant performance and yield in many habitats and in
agriculture. In addition to survival of the acute drought stress period which depends on plant …

An investigation was carried out to elucidate growth, anatomical, physiological, and major
ROS detoxification pathways involved in the tolerance of A. tricolor under salinity stress …

Salt stress is an important environmental limiting factor. Water dropwort (Oenanthe javanica)
is an important vegetable in East Asia; however, its phenotypic and physiological response …

The study of plant mitochondria started in earnest around 1950 with the first isolations of
mitochondria from animal and plant tissues. The first 35 years were spent establishing the …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) were initially recognized as toxic by-products of aerobic
metabolism. In recent years, it has become apparent that ROS plays an important signaling …

Carbohydrates provide the building blocks for plant structures as well as versatile resources
for metabolic processes. The nonstructural carbohydrates (NSC), mainly sugars and starch …

Extreme droughts, heat waves, frosts, precipitation, wind storms and other climate extremes
may impact the structure, composition and functioning of terrestrial ecosystems, and thus …

Drought is one of the major stress factors affecting the growth and development of plants. In
this context, drought-related losses of crop plant productivity impede sustainable agriculture …

Despite decades of research on plant drought tolerance, the physiological mechanisms by
which trees succumb to drought are still under debate. We report results from an experiment …
