drought-resilience

17 articles

Drought resilience refers to the capacity of plants to maintain physiological function, growth, and reproduction under conditions of water deficit stress. Understanding the mechanisms behind drought resilience is critical for plant science, as water scarcity is one of the primary limiting factors for plant survival and agricultural productivity worldwide. Research in this area explores traits such as stomatal regulation, osmotic adjustment, root architecture, and metabolic adaptations that enable plants to tolerate or recover from drought conditions.
