Water is vital for plant growth and development. Water-deficit stress, permanent or
temporary, limits the growth and the distribution of natural vegetation and the performance of …

Plants often encounter unfavorable environmental conditions because of their sessile
lifestyle. These adverse factors greatly affect the geographic distribution of plants, as well as …

Plants are simultaneously exposed to multiple stresses resulting in enormous changes in
the molecular landscape within the cell. Identification and characterization of the synergistic …

Plants in nature are continuously exposed to several biotic and abiotic stresses. Among
these stresses, drought stress is one of the most adverse factors of plant growth and …

At adverse environmental conditions, plants produce various kinds of primary and
secondary metabolites to protect themselves. Both primary and secondary metabolites play …

Drought (water stress) is one of the most important environmental stresses and occurs for
several reasons, including low rainfall, salinity, high and low temperatures, and high …

Background Drought is a major environmental disaster that causes crop yield loss
worldwide. Metabolites are involved in various environmental stress responses of plants …

Tomato is a major crop in the Mediterranean basin, where the cultivation in the open field is
often vulnerable to drought. In order to adapt and survive to naturally occurring cycles of …

Under field conditions crops are routinely subjected to a number of different abiotic stress
factors simultaneously. Recent studies revealed that the response of plants to a combination …

Key message By integration of transcriptional and metabolic profiles we identified pathways
and hubs transcription factors regulated during drought conditions in sunflower, useful for …
