One of the main limiting factors of plant yield is drought, and while the physiological
responses to this environmental stress have been broadly described, research addressing …

While it is generally acknowledged that drought is one of the main abiotic factors affecting
plant growth, how mineral nutrition is specifically and negatively affected by water deficit has …

Scarcity of water is a severe environmental limit to plant productivity. Drought-induced loss
in crop yield probably exceeds losses from all other causes, since both the severity and …

Plants, being sessile, face an array of biotic and abiotic stresses in their lifespan that
endanger their survival. Hence, optimized uptake of mineral nutrients creates potential new …

In natural and agroecosystems, plants are continuously exposed to several environmental
stress factors. Besides having evolved several indigenous tolerance mechanisms, proper …

Mineral accumulation in plants under drought stress is essential for drought tolerance. The
distribution, survival, and growth of Chinese fir (Cunninghamia lanceolata (Lamb.) Hook.) …

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 …

The cultivar-dependent differences in Brassica napus L. seed yield are significantly affected
by drought stress. Here, the response of leaf proteome to long-term drought (28 days) was …

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 …

Human mineral malnutrition or hidden hunger is considered a global challenge, affecting a
large proportion of the world's population. The reduction in the mineral content of edible …
