Drought is an important environmental factor that severely restricts crop production. The high-
affinity nitrate transporter partner protein OsNAR2. 1 plays an essential role in nitrate …

Drought is a major challenge for agriculture worldwide, being one of the main causes of
losses in plant production. Various studies reported that some soil's bacteria can improve …

The impact of water stress and nitrogen (N) nutrition on leaf respiration (R), carbon balance
and water use efficiency (WUE) remains largely elusive. Therefore, the objective of the …

Quantifying biophysical and biochemical vegetation variables is of great importance in
precision agriculture. Here, the ability of artificial neural networks (ANNs) to generate …

Understanding plant responses to individual stresses does not mean that we understand
real-world situations, where stresses usually combine and interact. These interactions arise …

Rust infection results in decreases in photosynthesis and stress volatile emissions, but how
these changes vary among host species has not been studied. We demonstrated that the …

Drought and the availability of nitrate, the predominant source of nitrogen (N) in agriculture,
are major factors limiting plant growth and crop productivity. The dissection of the …

Aquaporins are key proteins in regulating water transport, plant growth and development. In
this study, we investigated the function of plasma membrane intrinsic proteins (PIPs) in both …

Climate change causes extreme conditions like prolonged drought, which results in yield
reductions due to its effects on nutrient balances such as nitrogen uptake and utilization by …

In contrast to inorganic nitrogen (N) assimilation, the role of organic N forms, such as
proteins and peptides, as sources of N and their impact on plant metabolism remains …
