Drought is one of the major constraints limiting crop production worldwide. Crop growth
models predict that this issue will be more severe in future. Drought impairs normal growth …

Plants are key to the functionality of many ecosystem processes. The duration and intensity
of water stress are anticipated to increase in the future; however, a detailed elucidation of …

Citrus is one of the most widely cultivated fruit crops, whose rhizosphere inhabits a class of
beneficial fungi, popularly known as arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). Different species of …

The frequency of drought periods influences the yield potential of crops under field
conditions. The change in morphology and anatomy of plants has been tested during …

Melatonin (MLT) is a vital signaling molecule that regulates multiple physiological processes
in higher plants. In the current study, the role of MLT in regulating chilling tolerance and its …

In broad terms, plants adapt to drought either by decreasing water loss (reduced stomatal
conductance) or by maintaining water uptake. The latter process is facilitated within plant …

Owing to their wide distribution, easy production, and resistance to degradation,
microplastics (MPs) represent a globally emerging group of pollutants of concern …

Rising atmospheric [CO 2] influences plant growth, development, productivity and stress
responses. Soybean is a major oil crop. At present, it is unclear how elevated [CO 2] affects …

Traditional crops are extremely important for food production in low income, food-deficit
countries (LIFDCs) where they continue to be maintained by socio-cultural preferences and …

We report the first whole genome sequence (WGS) assembly and annotation of a dwarf
coconut variety,'Catigan Green Dwarf'(CATD). The genome sequence was generated using …
