Heliyon, 2020 Arsenic (As) uptake by plants is mainly carried out as arsenate (As(V)), whose chemical analogy with phosphate is largely responsible for its elevated toxicity. Arsenate is known to stimulate reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation in plants that provoke

Comparison of drought stress response and gene expression between a GM maize variety and a near-isogenic non-GM variety [PDF]
, 2015 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 ...

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.

Plant Responses to Water Stress [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2002 This Special Issue comprises a series of papers that develops the theme of plant responses to water stress, encompassing recent developments at the molecular level, through responses of photosynthesis and metabolism, to their application in crop selection and yield. The consideration of water deficits is particularly timely, given the huge developments

Sensitivity of water stress in a two-layered sandy grassland soil to variations in groundwater depth and soil hydraulic parameters [PDF]
, 2015 Monitoring and modelling tools may improve irrigation strategies in precision agriculture. We used non-invasive soil moisture monitoring, a crop growth and a soil hydrological model to predict soil water content fluctuations and crop yield in a ...

The Effect of Plant Water Storage on Water Fluxes within the Coupled Soil–Plant System [PDF]
, 2017 In addition to buffering plants from water stress during severe droughts, plant water storage (PWS) alters many features of the spatio-temporal dynamics of water movement in the soil–plant system.
