The combination of drought and heat stress has a greater effect on potato plants than single stresses

Plant, Soil and Environment, 2020
Several research groups have examined the effects of drought stress and heat stress on potato, but few investigations of the effects of combined drought-heat stress have been reported.

Characterization of gene expression associated with drought avoidance and tolerance traits in a perennial grass species. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
To understand molecular mechanisms of perennial grass adaptation to drought stress, genes associated with drought avoidance or tolerance traits were identified and their expression patterns were characterized in C4 hybrid bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon ...

Influence of Diazotrophic Bacteria on Antioxidant Enzymes and Some Biochemical Characteristics of Soybean Subjected to Water Stress

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2012
Drought stress is an abiotic stress that imposes serious constraints on plants. The present investigation was carried out to determine the inter-relationship between some physiological attributes of soybeans affected by drought stress and pure isolates ...

Melatonin imparts tolerance to combined drought and high-temperature stresses in tomato through osmotic adjustment and ABA accumulation

Frontiers in Plant Science
In recent years, environmental stresses viz., drought and high-temperature negatively impacts the tomato growth, yield and quality. The effects of combined drought and high-temperature (HT) stresses during the flowering stage were investigated.

The antioxidative response of two tomato species with different drought tolerances as a result of drought and cadmium stress combinations

Plant, Soil and Environment, 2005
The effects of drought, cadmium (Cd) and drought-Cd combinations on antioxidant compounds, antioxidant enzymes and shoot growth were investigated for drought tolerant [Lycopersicon peruvianum (L.) Mill.] and sensitive of (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cv.

A study on drought stress tolerance in some maize (Zea mays L.) cultivars

Sakarya Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü Dergisi, 2016
In this study, some morphological and physiological parameters of three maize (Zea mays L.) cultivars, cv. FR13, FRB73 and TTM815, were analysed to investigate their tolerance to drought stress. Twenty-one-day old plants were subjected to three different

Molecular mechanism of thiamine in mitigating drought stress in Chinese wingnut (Pterocarya stenoptera): Insights from transcriptomics

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2023
Urban garden plants are frequently affected by drought, which can hinder their growth, development, and greening effect. Previous studies have indicated that Chinese wingnut (Pterocarya stenoptera) responds to drought stress by increasing the expression ...

Rubisco Activity: Effects of Drought Stress [PDF]

Annals of Botany, 2002
Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) activity is modulated in vivo either by reaction with CO2 and Mg2+ to carbamylate a lysine residue in the catalytic site, or by the binding of inhibitors within the catalytic site. Binding of inhibitors blocks either activity or the carbamylation of the lysine residue that is essential for ...

Biomarker genes for model-based prediction of drought-stress perception levels in rice

BMC Plant Biology
Background Drought is a global challenge that severely restricts crop yields and threatens food security. Plants respond to drought stress by modulating gene expression before visible phenotypic changes occur.
