Agricultural Water Management, 1983
Passioura, J.B., 1983. Roots and drought resistance. Agric. Water Manage., 7: 265–280. The influence of roots on the yield of water-limited crops is analysed with the help of the identity: yield = water used × water-use efficiency × harvest index Despite being severely water-stressed, many droughted crops leave substantial amounts of ...

Mechanisms of Drought Resistance
2015There are different sources of genetic variation which introduce variability in the gene pool. Wide range of variability in germplasm provides multiple options for improvement against different stresses. For resistance against drought stress, there are different mechanisms that confer drought resistance in different biological ways.

Biomechanics in plant resistance to drought
Acta Mechanica Sinica, 2020During drought, plant functions at multi-levels (i.e., tissue, cellular and molecular) are adjustable with the change of water condition, which is known as drought resistance. Various biological, chemical and physical mechanisms have been found in plant drought resistance, among which the role of physical cues (especially mechanics) has attracted ...

Crop Science, 2008
Inheritance of traits is important for developing effective breeding schemes for improving desired traits. The aims of this study were to estimate the heritabilities (h2) of drought resistance traits and the genotypic (rG) and phenotypic (rP) correlations between drought resistance traits and agronomic traits, and to examine the relationships between ...

Advances in Drought Resistance of Rice
Critical Reviews in Plant Sciences, 2009Water deficit is a serious environmental stress and the major constraint to rice productivity. Losses in rice yield due to water shortage probably exceed losses from all other causes combined and the extent of the yield loss depends on both the severity and duration of the water stress.

Frost, Drought, and Heat Resistance
Annual Review of Plant Physiology, 1951With the exception of Chapter 5, the present work deals solely with plants. This was necessary because the author is a botanist and not familiar with the animal literature. It is also reasonable, since tolerance plays a greater role in the resistance of plants. The greater complexity of animal morphology, which may lead to the death of a whole organism

Drought Resistance and Wheat Breeding
Agricultural Water Management, 1983The breeding of wheat (Triticum species) for drought resistance has been indirect for the most part. The most direct approach has been identifying an appropriate crop maturity that maximizes growth and the accompanying yield component development. Beyond that, the improvement of response to drought has been rare.

Breeding Methods for Drought Resistance
1989Drought resistant varieties were developed in many crop plants by the use of the empirical breeding approach which involves intricate biometrical designs and estimates of stability of yield performance over many locations and years. While success is on record, the method is laborious, expensive and time consuming, largely because yield is an imperfect ...
