How Do Plants Respond to Combined Drought and Salinity Stress?—A Systematic Review
Plants are frequently exposed to one or more abiotic stresses, including combined salinity-drought, which significantly lowers plant growth. Many studies have been conducted to evaluate the responses of plants to combined salinity and drought stress ...

Expression of the CCCH-tandem zinc finger protein gene OsTZF5 under a stress-inducible promoter mitigates the effect of drought stress on rice grain yield under field conditions [PDF]
Increasing drought resistance without sacrificing grain yield remains an ongoing challenge in crop improvement. In this study, we report that Oryza sativa CCCH‐tandem zinc finger protein 5 (OsTZF5) can confer drought resistance and increase grain yield ...

The impact of biological inputs on drought stress resistance in Celtis caucasica L. seedlings [PDF]
Introduction: Unfavorable environmental conditions result in stress in plants and so disrupt their growth and survival. Today, soil microorganisms, especially fungi and growth-promoting bacteria, involved in various biological processes in plant growth ...

Drought tolerance monitoring of apple rootstock M.9-T337 based on infrared and fluorescence imaging
Apple rootstock seedling M.9-T337 was selected to explore the effect of drought stress. The findings indicated that the relative water content of both the leaf and soil gradually decreased with an increase in drought stress.

Transcriptome analysis and transcription factors responsive to drought stress in Hibiscus cannabinus [PDF]
Kenaf is an annual bast fiber crop. Drought stress influences the growth of kenaf stems and causes a marked decrease in fiber yield and quality. Research on the drought resistance of kenaf is therefore important, but limited information is available on ...
