Journal ArticleDOI
Water stress, growth, and osmotic adjustment
TL;DR: Osmotic adjustment has long been known as a means by which higher plants adapt to salinity, with much of the cell osmotica being ionic and accumulated from the medium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plant responses to water deficits, water-use efficiency, and drought resistance
TL;DR: Some of the physiological bases for differences among species in water-use efficiency and drought resistance are examined, with special attention given to CO 2 assimilation and transpiration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immediate and subsequent growth responses of maize leaves to changes in water status.
TL;DR: Upon the release of mild and short stress, the transitory rapid growth completely made up for the reduced elongation during stress, suggesting that metabolic processes for cell expansion might have proceeded unchecked during the stress period.
Journal ArticleDOI
Soil physical properties and wheat root growth as affected by no-tillage and conventional tillage systems in a Mediterranean environment of Chile
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of 4-and 7-year-old conventional (CT) and no-tillage (NT) treatments on soil physical properties, root growth, and wheat (Triticum turgidum L. var. durum) yield in an Entic Haploxeroll of Central Chile was evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Drought and Heat Responses in the Wild Wheat Relative Aegilops geniculata Roth: Potential Interest for Wheat Improvement
TL;DR: Results obtained confirmed the potential value of A egilops geniculata for improvement of high temperature and drought stress tolerance in wheat and could contribute to the choice of traits to be introgressed and the accessions to be used in wide hybridization programs.
