Increasing leaf transpiration efficiency (TE) may provide leads for growing rice like dryland
cereals such as wheat (Triticum aestivum). To explore avenues for improving TE in rice …

Global production of rice (Oryza sativa) grain is limited by water availability and the low 'leaf-
level'photosynthetic capacity of many cultivars. Oryza sativa is extremely susceptible to …

Stomatal conductance (gs) is an important trait responsible for the genotypic difference in
gas diffusion for photosynthesis and transpiration in rice (Oryza sativa L.). We measured gs …

The genus Oryza, which includes rice (Oryza sativa and Oryza glaberrima) and wild
relatives, is a useful genus to study leaf properties in order to identify structural features that …

Understanding the physiological responses of crops to drought is important for ensuring
sustained crop productivity under climate change, which is expected to exacerbate the …

Gas exchange and hydraulics during drought in crops: who drives whom? | Journal of
Experimental Botany | Oxford Academic Skip to Main Content Advertisement Oxford …

Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is an important food crop relied upon by billions of people worldwide.
However, with increasing pressure from climate change and rapid population growth …

In wheat, the ear is one of the main photosynthetic contributors to grain filling under drought
stress conditions. In order to determine the relationship between stomatal characteristics …

Leaf photosynthetic potential, a major determinant of yield potential in rice, is mostly
explained by stomatal conductance (gs) as well as leaf N content (Rubisco protein content) …

Stomatal behavior in response to drought has been the focus of intensive research, but less
attention has been paid to stomatal density. In this study, 5-week-old maize seedlings were …
