Advances in Breeding for Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Wheat
2021Wheat is a key economically important cereal crop that is consumed globally. While the grain yield increase is steady at around 1%, it is not enough to meet the growing global demands of the next decades. One the major factor that affects wheat production is the uncertainty in climatic patterns.

Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Banana
2016The key issues that are to be addressed to sustain agriculture in the twenty-first century are water availability, salinity and extreme temperatures. Bananas are staple food for hundreds of millions of people in Africa, and it is cultivated mostly in tropical and subtropical countries.

Trehalose and Abiotic Stress Tolerance
2011Trehalose is a nonreducing disaccharide present in diverse organisms ranging from bacteria and fungi to invertebrates, in which it serves as an energy source as well as an osmolyte and/or protein/membrane protectant. Until recently, trehalose was not thought to be of any real significance in plants, although genetic studies have confirmed the existence

Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Barley
2017Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is one of the primitive and oldest domesticated cereals and preferred by gladiators due to its nutritional properties. Primarily this crop is used for feed and food purposes, whereas its enzymatic and husk properties make it unique for malting and brewing purposes.

Genetic analysis of abiotic stress tolerance in crops
Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2011Abiotic stress tolerance is complex, but as phenotyping technologies improve, components that contribute to abiotic stress tolerance can be quantified with increasing ease. In parallel with these phenomics advances, genetic approaches with more complex genomes are becoming increasingly tractable as genomic information in non-model crops increases and ...

Dissection and modelling of abiotic stress tolerance in plants
Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2010Plants have acquired a variety of whole-plant protection mechanisms in response to abiotic stresses, often at the expenses of performance. Hence, a given trait can have positive, negative or no effect depending on the stress scenario. A new approach has emerged that dissects yield and integrative traits that influence stress tolerance into heritable ...

Breeding for Tolerance to Abiotic Stress
2017Soybean is the most widely grown protein and oil crop in the world, and it is, therefore, one of the crops most prone to occurrence of biotic and abiotic stresses. In recent years, with climate change, abiotic stresses have become increasingly common.

Enhancing Abiotic Stress Tolerance
2016The banana is one of the most important staple fruit crop which feed millions of people around the globe. In the era of climate change, banana cultivation and production is seriously hampered by different biotic and abiotic constraints. Abiotic stresses arise from adverse environmental conditions which can hinder yield stability every cropping season ...

Brassinosteroid Action in Plant Abiotic Stress Tolerance
2017Brassinosteroids (BRs) are a class of plant steroidal hormones that play essential roles in plant growth and development. Systematic studies had first been undertaken concomitantly to determine both the effects of exogenous BR on stress phenotypes of Arabidopsis thaliana and Brassica napus (rapeseed) seedlings and the expression of stress marker genes ...

Plastid Transformation for Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Plants
2012Abiotic stresses such as drought, salinity, and extreme temperatures are major limiting factors in plant growth and development and pose serious threat to global agricultural production. Here we describe a procedure, using a tobacco plastid transformation vector, to generate transplastomic plants with an enhanced ability to tolerate abiotic stresses ...
