Abiotic stress tolerance has been weakened during the domestication of all major staple
crops. Soil salinity is a major environmental constraint that impacts over half of the world …

Succulent plants represent a large functional group of drought-resistant plants that store
water in specialized tissues. Several co-adaptive traits accompany this water-storage …

Plant polysaccharides are components of plant cell walls and/or store energy. However, this
oversimplified classification neglects the fact that some cell wall polysaccharides and …

Succulence is found across the world as an adaptation to water‐limited niches. The fleshy
organs of succulent plants develop via enlarged photosynthetic chlorenchyma and/or …

Abstract Background and Aims Many succulent species are characterized by the presence
of Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) and/or elevated bulk hydraulic capacitance (C FT) …

Almost all plant cells are surrounded by a wall constructed of co-extensive networks of
polysaccharides and proteoglycans. The capability to analyse cell wall components is …

Abstract Background and Scope This review summarizes recent advances in our
understanding of Crassulacean Acid Metabolism (CAM) by integrating evolutionary …

Primary plant cell walls are composite extracellular structures composed of three major
classes of polysaccharides (pectins, hemicelluloses, and cellulose) and of proteins. The cell …

Waterlogging severely threatens the formation of cotton fiber quality, especially the length.
However, the underlying mechanism is still incompletely understood. Here, the experiment …

Throughout evolution, plants have developed different strategies of responses and
adaptations that allow them to survive in different conditions of abiotic stress. Aloe vera (L.) …
