Does Water Deficit Stress Promote Ethylene Synthesis by Intact Plants? [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1990 The effect of plant water deficit on ethylene production by intact plants was tested in three species, beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) and miniature rose (Rosa hybrida L., cv Bluesette). Compressed air was passed through glass, plant-containing cuvettes, ethylene collected on chilled columns, and subsequently assayed by ...

Physiological and Agronomic Responses of Four Rice Varieties to Drought in the Rainforest. [PDF]
, 2019 The present investigation tested the hypothesis that there would be variation in physiological responses to water deficit among rice varieties from different production ecologies, with contrasting tolerance to water deficit under repeated cycle of soil ...

Polyamines induce adaptive responses in water deficit stressed cucumber roots [PDF]
Journal of Plant Research, 2013 The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of exogenous polyamines (PAs) on the membrane status and proline level in roots of water stressed cucumber (Cucumis sativus cv. Dar) seedlings. It was found that water shortage resulted in an increase of membrane injury, lipoxygenase (LOX) activity, lipid peroxidation and proline concentration in ...

Evaluation of Argentine wild sunflower biotypes for drought stress during reproductive stage [PDF]
, 2012 As in several regions where sunflower production has moved to areas with limiting water availability, the search for water-stress tolerant genotypes has been intensified. Helianthus annuus ssp. annuus L.

The β-cyanoalanine pathway is involved in the response to water deficit in Arabidopsis thaliana. [PDF]
, 2013 The β-cyanoalanine pathway is primarily responsible for detoxification of excess cyanide produced by plants. Recent evidence suggests that cyanide detoxification via this pathway may be involved in the response and tolerance to water deficit in plants ...

Plant Metabolism during Water Deficit Stress: A Review
Agricultural Reviews, 2022 Water deficit stress is one of the chief abiotic stresses adversely affecting plant endurance leading serious effects on plant metabolism. Depending upon strength and duration of water deficit conditions, plants adjust a series of physiological, cellular and molecular mechanisms aiming a correct stress response. Some of the responses of plants to water

Water-deficit stress-induced anatomical changes in higher plants
Comptes Rendus. Biologies, 2008 Water is vital for plant growth and development. Water-deficit stress, permanent or temporary, limits the growth and the distribution of natural vegetation and the performance of cultivated plants more than any other environmental factors do. Although research and practices aimed at improving water-stress resistance and water-use efficiency have been ...

Tall fescue endophyte effects on tolerance to water-deficit stress [PDF]
BMC Plant Biology, 2013 AbstractBackgroundThe endophytic fungus,Neotyphodium coenophialum, can enhance drought tolerance of its host grass, tall fescue. To investigate endophyte effects on plant responses to acute water deficit stress, we did comprehensive profiling of plant metabolite levels in both shoot and root tissues of genetically identical clone pairs of tall fescue ...

A review of growth stage deficit irrigation affecting sticky maize production [PDF]
, 2017 The shortage of water resources influences the future sustainability of sticky Maize (Zea mays L.) production. Deficit irrigation (DI) – a water management strategy – has gained much attention from scientists because of enhanced water use efficiency (WUE)
