Drought Tolerance in Wheat [PDF]

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2013
Drought is one of the most important phenomena which limit crops’ production and yield. Crops demonstrate various morphological, physiological, biochemical, and molecular responses to tackle drought stress. Plants’ vegetative and reproductive stages are intensively influenced by drought stress.

Drought Stress Priming Improved the Drought Tolerance of Soybean

open access: yesPlants, 2022
The capability of a plant to protect itself from stress-related damages is termed “adaptability” and the phenomenon of showing better performance in subsequent stress is termed “stress memory”. While drought is one of the most serious disasters to result from climate change, the current understanding of drought stress priming in soybean is still ...

Impacts of straw, biogas slurry, manure and mineral fertilizer applications on several biochemical properties and crop yield in a wheat-maize cropping system

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2019
To investigate the effects of different sources of organic matter on soil biochemical properties and crop productivity and to find the best substitute for cow manure in the fields, a field experiment was carried out in a wheat-maize cropping system ...

Identification of drought, heat and combined drought and heat tolerant donors in maize (Zea mays L.) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Low maize yields and the impacts of climate change on maize production highlight the need to improve yields in eastern and southern Africa. Climate projections suggest higher temperatures within drought-prone areas.

The genetic basis of drought tolerance in the high oil crop Sesamum indicum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Unlike most of the important food crops, sesame can survive drought but severe and repeated drought episodes, especially occurring during the reproductive stage, significantly curtail the productivity of this high oil crop.

Effect of subsoiling depth on soil physical properties and summer maize (Zea mays L.) yield

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2019
The present study was carried out in 2016-2017 to assess the effect of subsoiling depth on the soil bulk density, stability of soil structure, soil physical properties and summer maize yield based on a field experiment started in 2015.

Discrimination of drought tolerance in a worldwide collection of safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) genotypes based on selection indices

open access: yesActa Agriculturae Slovenica, 2021
Improvement of elite safflower genotypes for drought-tolerance is hampered by a deficiency of effective selection criteria. The present study evaluated 100 genotypes of safflower in terms of their drought tolerance over a period of three years (2016–2018)

Effects of subsoiling stage on summer maize water use efficiency and yield in North China Plains

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2019
Aiming at the problems of shallow effective soil layering and low utilization rate of precipitation in the North China Plain. The effects of different subsoiling stages on soil physical properties and water use in winter wheat/summer maize fields were ...

JUNGBRUNNEN1 confers drought tolerance downstream of the HD-Zip I Transcription factor AtHB13 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Low water availability is the major environmental factor limiting growth and productivity of plants and crops and is therefore considered of high importance for agriculture affected by climate change.
