Progress and bottlenecks in the early domestication of the perennial oilseed Silphium integrifolium, a sunflower substitute [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Silflower (Silphium integrifolium Michx.) is in the early stages of domestication as a perennial version of oilseed sunflower, its close relative. Grain crops with deep perennial root systems will provide farmers with new alternatives for managing soil ...

EFFECT OF PEG-INDUCED DROUGHT STRESS ON MUNGBEAN PLANTS REVEALED RESISTANT VARIETIES BASED ON LEAF WILTING INDEX AND BIOCHEMICAL MOLECULES

open access: yesJournal of Plant Development, 2022
At the early vegetative growth stage, mungbean are mostly affected by drought, and it is also one of the most promising stages that can be used to screen for drought stress tolerance traits in multiple varieties. Therefore, this study utilized polyethylene glycol (PEG-6000) to induce drought stress towards selection of drought tolerance mungbean ...

Quantifying the influence of tree species richness on community drought resistance using drone-derived NDVI and ground-based measures of Plant Area Index and leaf chlorophyll in a young tree diversity experiment

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Forest Research, 2023
AbstractTree diversity may buffer the negative impact of drought events according to the diversity insurance hypothesis. During the extreme pan-European drought of 2018, we tested whether tree species richness modulated drought impacts on communities of a young tree diversity experiment in Freiburg, Germany. We utilized drone-based hyperspectral images

Stem hydraulic capacitance decreases with drought stress : implications for modelling tree hydraulics in the Mediterranean oak Quercus ilex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Hydraulic modelling is a primary tool to predict plant performance in future drier scenarios. However, as most tree models are validated under non-stress conditions they may fail when water becomes limiting.
