Seedlings' growth in response to drought stress and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) [PDF]
The aim of this work was to study the effect of the herbicide, 2,4-D on a mono- cot (Lolium temulentum Linn.) and a dicot (Raphanus sativus Linn.) in relation to drought stress, in order to elucidate if the combined treatments altered the survival of the

Rhizobacterial application for sustainable water management on the areas of limited water resources [PDF]
A key challenge for plant growth is global water shortage, limiting crop yields already today in more than 70% of arable lands. The drought limitations further gain in importance in the near future as agricultural activities expand to less fertile areas ...

How Moderate Water Stress Can Affect Water Use Efficiency Indices in Potato [PDF]
Since water is increasingly becoming an expensive and limited resource, it is necessary to improve crop water use efficiency (WUE) to save water while maintaining high yields.

Identification of Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) Genotypes Tolerant to Water Stres
The present research was carried out to determine water-stress tolerance of linoleic sunflower genotypes (P64LE119, PR63F73, P64LL62) grown under different water stress conditions [no water-stress (I100); mild water-stress (I70); strong water-stress (I35)

Effects of water stress on berry quality and organic acid synthesis gene expression in Beihong grape [PDF]
[Objective] Water stress refers to the phenomenon in that the normal physiological function of plants is disrupted due to inadequate or excessive soil water. This condition is mainly categorized as waterlogging stress and drought stress.
