Identification of water deficit stress tolerant genotypes of common bean using adaptive root and shoot traits under different screening systems [PDF]
Common bean is an important component of global nutritional security. Climate change driven water deficit stress impairs crop performance by implicating both above and below ground plant parts in crops like common beans that are largely grown in marginal

Effect of water deficit stress on physiological traits of some Algerian barley genotypes [PDF]
Recently, drought stress became more frequent and this presents a serious challenge for plant breeders to create tolerant barley genotypes with good stability under water deficit conditions. The present study aims to evaluate the effects of water deficit

Effect of foliar application of ascorbic acid on antioxidant enzyme activities of mung bean (Vigna radiate L.) cultivars under water-deficit Stress [PDF]
In order to investigate the effect of foliar application of ascorbic acid on the activity of antioxidant enzymes in mung bean (Vigna radiate L.) under water-deficit stress, a field trial was performed in a split-plot design arranged in completely ...

Evaluation of corn lines and hybrids resulting from their crossing based on biochemical and physiological traits in conditions of limited irrigation stress [PDF]
Introduction:Water deficit stress is one of the most common environmental stresses which has limited agricultural production. So, research on the water deficit tolerance in crops is very important.Materials and methods: In this study, 15 corn genotypes ...

Extremophyte adaptations to salt and water deficit stress [PDF]
Plants that can survive and even thrive in extreme environments (extremophytes) are likely treasure boxes of plant adaptations to environmental stresses. These species represent excellent models for understanding mechanisms of stress tolerance that may not be present in stress-sensitive species, as well as for identifying genetic determinants to ...

Selenium protects rice plants from water deficit stress [PDF]
Selenium (Se) is essential to humans and animals due to its antioxidant properties. Although it is not considered an essential nutrient for higher plants. Many studies show that Se in low concentrations (up to 0.5 mg kg-1) provides beneficial effects to non-hyperaccumulating plants by participating in antioxidant defense systems and enhancing tolerance

Biosynthesis of Stress Ethylene Induced by Water Deficit [PDF]
Wheat leaves normally produced very little ethylene, but following a water deficit stress which caused a loss of 9% initial fresh weight, ethylene production increased more than 30-fold within 4 hours and declined rapidly thereafter.

Daytime soybean transcriptome fluctuations during water deficit stress [PDF]
Since drought can seriously affect plant growth and development and little is known about how the oscillations of gene expression during the drought stress-acclimation response in soybean is affected, we applied Illumina technology to sequence 36 cDNA libraries synthesized from control and drought-stressed soybean plants to verify the dynamic changes ...

Comparison of drought stress response and gene expression between a GM maize variety and a near-isogenic non-GM variety [PDF]
Maize MON810, grown and commercialised worldwide, is the only cultivated GM event in the EU. Maize MON810, variety DKC6575, and the corresponding near-isogenic line Tietar were studied in different growth conditions, to compare their behaviour in ...
