Future increases in drought severity and frequency are predicted to have substantial impacts
on plant function and survival. However, there is considerable uncertainty concerning what …

Plant response to drought stress includes systems for intracellular regulation of gene
expression and signaling, as well as inter‐tissue and inter‐organ signaling, which helps …

Current methods of in-house plant phenotyping are providing a powerful new tool for plant
biology studies. The self-constructed and commercial platforms established in the last few …

As Earth is currently experiencing dramatic climate change, it is of critical interest to
understand how species will respond to it. The chance of a species withstanding climate …

Abstract Development of high-throughput phenotyping technologies has progressed
considerably in the last 10 years. These technologies provide precise measurements of …

Improving crop performance under water-limiting conditions is essential for achieving
environmentally sustainable food production. This requires significant progress in both the …

Seed plants vary tremendously in size and morphology; however, variation and covariation
in plant traits may be governed, at least in part, by universal biophysical laws and biological …

Abstract Development of drought-tolerant cultivars is one of the challenging tasks for the
plant breeders due to its complex inheritance and polygenic regulation. Evaluating genetic …

Life history strategies of most organisms are constrained by resource allocation patterns that
follow a 'slow-fast continuum'. It opposes slow growing and long-lived organisms with late …

Medal (note the leaf scroll at the top) received by W. Adams at the Missouri State Science
Fair. The backdrop of leaves includes those from (beginning in the upper left, moving …
