stress-tolerance

18 articles

Stress-tolerance is the physiological capacity of plants to withstand and recover from adverse environmental conditions such as drought, extreme temperatures, soil salinity, and pests. This trait is crucial for plant science research because it directly influences crop survival, productivity, and agricultural sustainability, particularly as climate change intensifies environmental pressures. Studying the genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying stress-tolerance enables the development of more resilient crop varieties that maintain yields under challenging growing conditions.
