Abiotic stressors are major constraints that affect agricultural plant physio-morphological and
biochemical attributes, resulting in a loss of normal functioning and, eventually, a severe …

Plants experience a remarkable range of interactions with the abiotic factors in their
environments, both aboveground (light, temperature, mechanical stress) and belowground …

Despite significant progress in increasing agricultural production, meeting the changing
dietary preferences and increasing food demands of future populations remains a significant …

Abiotic stress is the primary cause of crop loss worldwide, reducing average yields for most
major crop plants by more than 50%. Among abiotic stress, drought, salinity, high …

Understanding how plants cope with stress and the intricate mechanisms thereby used to
adapt and survive environmental imbalances comprise one of the most powerful tools for …

In nature, plants are simultaneously exposed to multiple abiotic and biotic stresses. Plants
have co-evolved with several stresses and hence have learnt to endure them through a …

The major challenge before the plant scientists is to develop strategies to increase the
productivity of crop plants so as to feed the rapidly increasing global population. The …

Abiotic stress is the adverse effect of any abiotic factor on a plant in a given environment,
impacting plants' growth and development. These stress factors, such as drought, salinity …

Facing stressful conditions imposed by their environment that could affect their growth and
their development throughout their life cycle, plants must be able to perceive, to process …

Climate change is predicted to increase the frequency and intensity of abiotic stress
combinations that negatively impact plants and pose a serious threat to crop yield and food …
