stress-resilience
Stress-resilience in plants refers to the physiological and genetic capacity to withstand and recover from environmental stresses such as drought, extreme temperatures, and disease. This research area is essential for plant science because identifying and enhancing resilience traits can lead to more durable crops better suited to variable environmental conditions. Understanding these mechanisms is particularly vital for agricultural sustainability and food security amid global climate change.
