Drought stress, an inevitable factor due to global climate change, hampers plant biomass production and overall yield. mediated stress sensitivity exerts multi-dimensional effect on transcriptional proteomic variations leading changes in morphological, physiological, metabolic hormonal responses. To cope up water scarcity, plants adapt several drought avoidances or tolerance mechanisms including biochemical, physiological gene regulatory networks, their effective survival. Genomic...
Drought is the major abiotic factors that limit crop productivity worldwide. To withstand stress conditions, plants alter numerous mechanisms for adaption and tolerance. Therefore, in present study, 106 rice varieties were screened drought tolerance phenotype via exposing different concentrations of polyethylene glycol 6000 (PEG) hydroponic nutrient medium at time interval 1, 3, 7 days to evaluate changes their root system architecture. Further, based on obtained after PEG-induced drought,...
The effect of leaf-to-air vapour pressure deficit (VPD) was studied in well-watered, potted, 1–2-year-old plants the leguminous tree P. juliflora grown outside northern India. long-term responses to VPD were analysed from diurnal and seasonal variations gas exchange parameters measured two cohorts leaves produced February July, respectively. In general, inhibitory effects high visible only when level exceeded a threshold >3 kPa. There substantial decline net photosynthesis rate stomatal...
Heavy metal (HM) toxicity has become a grave problem in the world since it leads to hazardous effects on living organisms. Transcriptomic/proteomic studies plants have identified large number of metal-responsive gene families. Of these, cytochrome-P450 (CYPs) family members are composed enzymes carrying out detoxification exogenous molecules. Here, we report CYP-like protein encoded by Os08g01480 locus rice that helps plant combat HM and other abiotic stresses. To functionally characterize...
Papaya leaves are used frequently for curing scores of ailments. The medicinal properties papaya due to presence certain bioactive/pharmacological compounds. However, the leaf curl virus (PaLCuV), a geminivirus, is major threat cultivation globally. During present investigation, we observed that PaLCuV infection significantly altered anatomy, physiology, and bioactive leaves. As compared healthy leaves, PaLCuV-infected were found have reduced stomatal density (76.83%), conductance (78.34%),...
