Water scarcity is the most significant factor limiting coffee production, although some
cultivars can still have important drought tolerance. This study analyzed leaf transcriptomes …

Background Drought is a widespread limiting factor in coffee plants. It affects plant
development, fruit production, bean development and consequently beverage quality …

Climate change is expected to result in more frequent periods of both low rainfall and above
normal temperatures for many coffee growing regions. To understand how coffee reacts to …

The aim of this study was to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying drought
acclimation in coffee plants by the identification of candidate genes (CGs) using different …

The effects of water deficit on photochemical parameters and expression of several
candidate genes were investigated in drought-tolerant clone 73 of Coffea canephora …

Drought is a major constraint to plant growth and productivity worldwide and will aggravate
as water availability becomes scarcer. Although elevated air [CO2] might mitigate some of …

Over the last decades, most information on the mechanisms underlying tolerance to drought
has been gained by considering this stress as a single event that happens just once in the …

Climate changes boosted the frequency and severity of drought and heat events, with
aggravated when these stresses occur simultaneously, turning crucial to unveil the plant …

Climate change is posing a major challenge to coffee production worldwide leading to a
need for the development of coffee cultivars with increased drought tolerance. In several …

Clones of Coffea canephora Pierre var. kouillou with contrasting tolerance to drought stress
have been chosen on the basis of their productivities under rainfed conditions. As little is …
