The foreseen increase in evaporative demand and reduction in rainfall occurrence are
expected to stress the abiotic constrains of drought and salt concentration in soil. The …

Biochar is widely suggested to improve soil physical properties and soil-water-plant
interactions. Furthermore, the application of biochar to the soil can alter the dynamics of the …

There is a growing need to provide support and applicable tools to farmers and the agro-
industry in order to move from their traditional water status monitoring and high-water …

Resilience to drought stress is an important crop selection and breeding target particularly
under an environment of increasing freshwater scarcities resulting from higher …

High-scored premium wines are typically produced under moderate drought stress,
suggesting that the water status of grapevine is crucial for wine quality. Aquaporins greatly …

A plant transpiration rate under progressive soil drying remains constant until a threshold
fraction of transpirable soil water (FTSW) is reached, and subsequently decreases linearly …

In this experiment, maize plants were subjected to different concentrations (0, 50, 100, and
250 µM) of the herbicide 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2, 4-D), with some groups primed …

Grapevine rootstocks play a pivotal role in plant responses to water deficiency (WD);
therefore, the selection of new genotypes is a promising strategy for future agricultural …

The biochemical response and gene expression in different grapevine cultivars to water
deficit are still not well understood. In this study, we investigated the performance of four …

Abstract Arsenite [As (III)] toxicity causes impeded growth, inadequate productivity of plants
and toxicity through the food chain. Using various chemical residues for priming is one of the …
