Differential gene expression in drought-tolerant sugarcane roots
(Funpec-editora, 2015-01-01)
Drought is one of the most frequent abiotic stresses limiting the productivity and geographical distribution of sugarcane culture. The use of drought-tolerant genotypes is one approach for overcoming the effects of water ...
Regulation of the photosynthetic electron transport and specific photoprotective mechanisms in Ricinus communis under drought and recovery
(2017-08-01)
Ricinus communis is one of the major commercial non-edible oilseed crops grown in semiarid and arid environments worldwide and is reported as a drought tolerant species. Surprisingly, little is known about the mechanisms ...
The homologous homeodomain-leucine zipper transcription factors HaHB1 and AtHB13 confer tolerance to drought and salinity stresses via the induction of proteins that stabilize membranes
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2012-06)
Transgenic approaches to conferring tolerance to abiotic stresses have mostly resulted in some degree of plant yield penalty under normal or mild stress conditions. Recently, we have reported that the homeodomain-leucine ...
Drought tolerance screening under controlled conditions predicts ranking of water-limited yield of field-grown soybean genotypes
(Wiley VCH Verlag, 2015-04)
Drought is a major limitation to crop yields worldwide. Screening for soybean yield under water deficit is often a bottleneck in breeding programmes. We assessed the validity of a standardized drought tolerance screening ...
Abscisic Acid improves drought tolerance of the Mexican moss Pseudocrosidium replicatum

Abscisic Acid improves drought tolerance of the Mexican moss Pseudocrosidium replicatum
Drought tolerance mechanisms of two brazilian soybean cultivars: BR 16, drought sensitive and Embrapa 48, drought tolerant.
(In: WORLD SOYBEAN RESEARCH CONFERENCE, 9., 2013, Durban. [Proceedings...]. Durban: OPDT: OPOT, 2013. Abst. 366., 2013)
Drought tolerance of two field-grown clones of Coffea canephora
(2003-01-01)
We compared tolerance to soil drought of two field-grown clones of Coffea canephora (clone 46, drought-sensitive; and clone 120, drought-tolerant). Under irrigation, there were no marked differences between the clones in ...
Drought tolerance is associated with rooting depth and stomatal control of water use in clones of Coffea canephora
(Oxford University Press, 2005-07-01)
center dot Background and Aims Drought is a major environmental constraint affecting growth and production of Coffea canephora. Selection of C. canephora clones has been largely empirical as little is known about how clones ...
