plant-stress-response-and-adaptation

4 articles

Plant stress response and adaptation encompasses the molecular, physiological, and morphological mechanisms plants use to detect and cope with environmental challenges such as drought, extreme temperatures, salinity, and pathogen attack. Understanding these processes reveals how plants sense stress signals and reprogram gene expression, metabolism, and growth to survive adverse conditions. This knowledge is critical for developing crops with improved resilience, helping to safeguard food security in the face of climate change and shifting agricultural pressures.
