Plant stress physiology is the study of how plants perceive, respond to, and recover from environmental stressors such as drought, heat, salinity, pathogens, and mechanical damage. Understanding these physiological and molecular responses is critical for plant science because it reveals the mechanisms plants use to survive adverse conditions, from hormone signaling cascades to reactive oxygen species management. This knowledge underpins efforts to develop more resilient crops and better understand the fundamental biology of plant adaptation.
