Abiotic stresses have a detrimental impact on plant growth and productivity and are a major
threat to sustainable crop production in rapidly changing environments. Proline, an …

Drought is one of the major constraints to rain-fed agricultural production, especially under
climate change conditions. Plants evolved an array of adaptive strategies that perceive …

The drought stress responses of vascular plants are complex regulatory mechanisms
because they include various physiological responses from signal perception under water …

Climate change is predicted to increase the frequency and intensity of abiotic stress
combinations that negatively impact plants and pose a serious threat to crop yield and food …

Metabolic regulation is the key mechanism implicated in plants maintaining cell osmotic
potential under drought stress. Understanding drought stress tolerance in plants will have a …
