Stress-Related Gene Expression Reflects Morphophysiological Responses to Water Deficit [PDF]
Acclimation to water deficit (WD) enables plants to maintain growth under unfavorable environmental conditions, although the mechanisms are not completely understood. In this study, the natural variation of long-term acclimation to moderate and severe soil WD was investigated in 18 Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) accessions using PHENOPSIS, an ...

Water-deficit Stress, Ethylene Production, and Ripening in Avocado Fruits [PDF]
Differential rates of water loss were achieved in picked avocado (Persea americana Mill.) fruits, either by controlling the evaporation rate or by supplying water through the fruit stalk. A negative linear correlation was found between the daily rate of water loss from fruits and their ripening, as determined by the time from harvest to peak of ...

Effect of Nitrogen and Water Deficit Stress on Corn (Zea mays L.) Root Characters and Grain Yield [PDF]
Introduction In recent years regulated deficit irrigation as a part of conservation and saving practices in water consumption has received attention. Vegetative growth stage of corn has a relative tolerance to water deficit stress.

Genetic control of plasticity in root morphology and anatomy of rice in response to water deficit [PDF]
Elucidating the genetic control of rooting behavior under water-deficit stress is essential to breed climate-robust rice (Oryza sativa) cultivars. Using a diverse panel of 274 indica genotypes grown under control and water-deficit conditions during ...

Differential performance of two forage species, Medicago truncatula and Sulla carnosa, under water-deficit stress and recovery [PDF]
The response patterns during water deficit stress and subsequent recovery of two forage species, Medicago truncatula and Sulla carnosa, were studied. After germination and pre-treatment, seedlings were individually cultivated for two months under two ...

The Effects of Foliar Feeding of Compatible Organic Solutes on Agronomic Traits of Safflower
Safflower is originated from Iran and is tolerant against water deficit stress. However, in semi-arid Mediterranean climate terminal drought and heat stress adversely affect the safflower production.

Impact of water-deficit stress on tritrophic interactions in a wheat-aphid-parasitoid system. [PDF]
Increasing temperature and CO2 concentrations can alter tritrophic interactions in ecosystems, but the impact of increasingly severe drought on such interactions is not well understood.
