Journal of Ecology, 2020 Despite progress in trait‐based ecology, there is limited understanding of the plant traits that structure semi‐arid grasslands. In particular, it remains unclear how traits that enable plants to cope with water limitation are related to traits that ...

Co-regulation of water and energy in the spatial heterogeneity of drought resistance and resilience
Environmental Research Letters, 2023 Vegetation resistance and resilience to drought are linked to the stability of terrestrial ecosystems under climate change. However, the factors driving the spatial heterogeneity in drought resistance and resilience remain poorly understood. In the study,

Phenomics‐based GWAS analysis reveals the genetic architecture for drought resistance in cotton
Plant Biotechnology Journal, 2020 Summary Drought resistance (DR) is a complex trait that is regulated by a variety of genes. Without comprehensive profiling of DR‐related traits, the knowledge of the genetic architecture for DR in cotton remains limited.

Genome-assisted Breeding For Drought Resistance [PDF]
Current Genomics, 2016 Drought stress caused by unpredictable precipitation poses a major threat to food production worldwide, and its impact is only expected to increase with the further onset of climate change. Understanding the effect of drought stress on crops and plants' response is critical for developing improved varieties with stable high yield to fill a growing food

Putting two water transport models to the test under wet and dry conditions [PDF]
, 2013 In order to improve fruit quality and quantity, accurate monitoring of the water status is necessary. The water status can be continuously predicted by using a mechanistic water transport and storage model (e.g. Steppe et al., 2006; 2008).
