Down-regulation of CBP80 gene expression as a strategy to engineer a drought-tolerant potato [PDF]

, 2012
Developing new strategies for crop plants to respond to drought is crucial for their innovative breeding. The down-regulation of nuclear cap-binding proteins in Arabidopsis renders plants drought tolerant.

Response of Watermelon to Drought Stress and Its Drought-Resistance Evaluation

Plants
This study investigated the response of watermelon seedlings to drought stress by assessing the growth, physiological, and biochemical indices using a pot-based continuous drought method. Drought stress indices, phenotypic plasticity indices, and membership function values were calculated, followed by a correlation analysis, principal component ...

Regional Differences in U.S. Consumer Preferences for Native Woody Shrubs With Varying Aesthetic Characteristics

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Native plants offer a variety of aesthetic (e.g., fall colour, fruit, flowers) and functional benefits (e.g., pollinator friendly, wildlife friendly, water management). How these benefits influence consumer choice and perceived value of native versus introduced plants is not well understood.

Advancing European Plant Variety Registration: Data‐Driven Insights and Stakeholder Perspectives

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient plant variety registration is crucial for fostering innovation in the European Union, yet the current regulatory framework is complex and faces calls for reform. This study provides data‐driven evidence to inform the ongoing legislative debate by employing a mixed‐methods approach.

Evaluation of Drought Tolerance in Rapeseed Genotypes under Non Stress and Drought Stress Conditions

Notulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca, 2011
Drought is a wide spread problem seriously influencing rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) production, mostly in dryland regions. This study was conducted to determine drought tolerance genotypes with superiority in different stressed environments. Twenty three rapeseed genotypes were tested in a split plot design based on randomized complete block design ...

Cost Pass‐Through in Crisis: Evidence From the German Malt‐Beer Supply Chain

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
Abstract Global agri‐food supply chains are increasingly exposed to geopolitical shocks, climate volatility, and market consolidation, factors that disrupt traditional price relationships and reshape market power dynamics. Nowhere is this more visible than in the brewing sector, where agricultural raw materials meet complex industrial processing and ...

An Integrated Framework for Drought Stress in Plants

International Journal of Molecular Sciences
With global warming, drought stress is becoming increasingly severe, causing serious impacts on crop yield and quality. In order to survive under adverse conditions such as drought stress, plants have evolved a certain mechanism to cope. The tolerance to drought stress is mainly improved through the synergistic effect of regulatory pathways, such as ...
