Plants are adversely affected by abiotic stress conditions such as heat, drought, cold, and
salinity. The physiological determinants of cotton stress tolerance and its processes were …

Drought is a severe threat to agriculture production that affects all growth stages of plants,
including corn (Zea mays L.). Any factor affecting early seedling growth and development …

Rice is a staple food for more than half of the global population. With the increasing
population, the yield of rice must correspondingly increase to fulfill the requirement. Rice is …

Short-and long-term waterlogging conditions impact crop growth and development,
preventing crops from reaching their true genetic potential. Two experiments were …

In the southern Great Plains of the United States, winter wheat grown for dual-purpose is
often planted early, which puts it at risk for drought stress at the seedling stage in the …

Cenchrus ciliaris L. is a widely used species for cattle feed in arid and semi‐arid regions due
to good forage value and known tolerance to drought conditions. Here, we provide insights …

Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is an essential staple food crop, but the per acre average rice yield is
less than its substantial potential in many countries. Rice breeders and growers would …

Achieving food security along with environmental sustainability requires high yields with
reduced demands on irrigation resources for rice production systems. The goal of the …

Drought and salinity are the most widespread soil problems, posing a big threat to food
security in rice growing regions. The present study evaluated the performance of eleven rice …

Reproductive-stage drought-stress is a major production constraint in rainfed rice
ecosystem. Emergence of marker-assisted breeding strategies for developing drought …
