Application of CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene editing for abiotic stress management in crop plants
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Abiotic stresses, including drought, salinity, cold, heat, and heavy metals, extensively reducing global agricultural production. Traditional breeding approaches and transgenic technology have been widely used to mitigate the risks of these environmental

Effects of abiotic stressors on lutein production in the green microalga Dunaliella salina. [PDF]
, 2014 BackgroundRecent years have witnessed a rising trend in exploring microalgae for valuable carotenoid products as the demand for lutein and many other carotenoids in global markets has increased significantly.

The Scientific World Journal, 2013 Abiotic stress such as cold, drought, salt, and heavy metals largely influences plant development and crop productivity. Abiotic stress has been becoming a major threat to food security due to the constant changes of climate and deterioration of environment caused by human activity. To cope with abiotic stress, plants can initiate a number of molecular,

Abiotic stress QTL in lettuce crop–wild hybrids: comparing greenhouse and field experiments [PDF]
, 2014 The development of stress-tolerant crops is an increasingly important goal of current crop breeding. A higher abiotic stress tolerance could increase the probability of introgression of genes from crops to wild relatives. This is particularly relevant to

Melatonin and Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Crop Plants
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023 Increasing food demand by the growing human population and declining crop productivity due to climate change affect global food security. To meet the challenges, developing improved crops that can tolerate abiotic stresses is a priority.

Effect of reduced PAR on growth and photosynthetic efficiency of soybean genotypes
Journal of Agrometeorology, 2017 Soybean is an important crop, and physiologically, it is photosensitive in nature and therefore, is likely to be highly affected by the atmospheric brown clouds (ABCs) which reduce PAR (Photosynthetically Active Radiation) availability, and moisture ...
