In view of occurring extreme weather conditions, food security for humans is highly
concerned with climate change worldwide. The only solution to this dire problem is to …

Drought is a major climatic challenge that contributes significantly to the decline of food
productivity. One of the strategies to overcome this challenge is the use of drought‐tolerant …

Soil and nutrient losses due to soil erosion are pronounced in potato growing areas of East
Africa due largely to the rugged topography and high soil disturbance associated with potato …

Drought is a major crop productivity-limiting factor, which adversely affects growth and yield
worldwide. Lablab (Lablab pupureus [L.] Sweet), is better adapted to withstand drought …

Salinity is one of the principal abiotic stresses that affect plant productivity by inducing
osmotic stress, which in turn, causes oxidative stress. Plants respond to this oxidative stress …

Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are crucial components in omics with an importance on many
aspects of biology. Cannabis sativa (C. sativa) is an agriculturally important plant which …

Abstract Lablab (Lablab purpureus (L.) Sweet) is a drought-tolerant legume mainly used as
