Chilling and Drought Stresses in Crop Plants: Implications, Cross Talk, and Potential Management Opportunities (2018, background): “Exposure of drought stress has also been known to substantially decrease the relative water content, turgor pressure, leaf water potential, and transpiration rate in a number of plant species (Siddique et al., 2001; Tezara et al., 2002; Nayyar and Gupta, 2006; Campos et al., 2011).”
Antioxidant enzyme changes in response to drought stress in ten cultivars of oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.). (2018, background): “It inhibits the photosynthesis of plants, causes changes in chlorophyll contents and components and damage to the photosynthetic apparatus (Nayyar & Gupta 2006).”
Physiological responses of three maize cultivars to drought stress and recovery. (2009, background): “Stomatal closure allows plants to limit trans-piration, but it also limits CO 2 absorption, which leads to a decreased photosynthetic activity (Nayyar and Gupta, 2006; Yang et al., 2006).”
