Water deficit/drought affects every aspect of plant growth and the yield modifying the
anatomy, morphology, physiology, biochemistry and finally the productivity of crop. Water is …

In the condition of prolonged drought stress during the reproductive stage, we addressed the
photosynthetic performance in flag leaves of the high-yield hybrid rice (Oryza sativa L.) …

The ability to recover from drought stress after re‐watering is an important feature that will
enable plants to cope with the predicted increase in episodic drought. The effects of pre …

The initial photochemical quantum efficiency of photosystem II (Fv/Fm) and performance
index (PI), describing the ability of the photosynthetic apparatus to collect light energy, have …

No information exists on the mechanisms developed at the level of leaf water relations by
pear-jujube trees (Zizyphus jujuba Mill.) to confront drought. For this reason, the purpose of …

Modulation of photosynthesis and the underlying mechanisms were studied in mulberry
(Morus indica L. genotype V1) under progressive drought stress conditions. Five months old …

A small group of angiosperms, known as resurrection plants, can tolerate extreme
dehydration. They survive in arid environments because they are able to dehydrate, remain …

Adaptation to abiotic stresses like drought is an important acquirement of agriculturally
relevant crops like maize. Development of enhanced drought tolerance in crops grown in …

Non-irrigated crops in temperate climates and irrigated crops in arid climates are subjected
to continuous cycles of water stress and re-watering. Thus, fast and efficient recovery from …

This study aimed to characterise the specific phenotypic responses and the sensitivity of
photosynthetic parameters to progressive drought in modern wheat genotypes. In pot …
