Contrasting adaptive responses to cope with drought stress and recovery in Cenchrus ciliaris L. and their implications for tissue lignification
(Wiley, 2020-11-12)
Cenchrus ciliaris L. is a widely used species for cattle feed in arid and semi-arid regions due to good forage value and known tolerance to drought conditions. Here, we provide insights to adaptive responses of two contrasting ...
Drought stress tolerance of Prosopis chilensis and Prosopis flexuosa species and their hybrids
(Springer, 2013-02)
Natural hybridization commonly produces individuals with intermediate morphological and genetic characteristics, but their response to environmental stress is still uncertain, with some studies showing that transgressive ...
Role of proteases in the response of plants to drought
(Elsevier, 2021-09-30)
Plants are sessile organisms that, to survive they develop response mechanisms under water deficit conditions. Plant proteases play an essential role in a diversity of biological processes, among them tolerance to drought ...
Drought will not leave your glass empty : low risk of hydraulic failure revealed by long-term drought observations in world’s top wine regions
(2018)
Grapevines are crops of global economic importance that will face increasing drought stress because many varieties are described as highly sensitive to hydraulic failure as frequency and intensity of summer drought increase. ...
Metabolic features involved in drought stress tolerance mechanisms in peanut nodules and their contribution to biological nitrogen fixation
(Elsevier Ireland, 2017-10)
Legumes belong to the most important crops worldwide. They increase soil fertility due their ability to establish symbiotic associations with soil microorganisms, known as rhizobia, capable of fixing nitrogen from the ...
Individual and combined effects of drought and heat on antioxidant parameters and growth performance in Buffel grass (Cenchrus ciliaris L.) genotypes
(2018-11)
Drought and heat stress are two critical threats to crop growth and sustainable agriculture worldwide. In the last decade, many studies focused on the response of crops to a single stress, nevertheless studying the response ...
Sorghum drought and heat stress patterns across the Argentinean temperate central region
(Elsevier Science, 2019-09-01)
Argentinean current sorghum management is similar across the entire temperate region, and no environmental characterization is assisting breeding and management decisions. Crop growth and development simulation models are ...
Transcript and metabolic adjustments triggered by drought in Ilex paraguariensis leaves
(Springer, 2019-05-04)
Ilex paraguariensis (yerba mate) is cultivated in the subtropical region of South America, where the occurrence of drought episodes limit yield. To explore the mechanisms that allow I. paraguariensis to overcome dehydration, ...
