Mechanisms underlying plant resilience to water deficits: prospects for water-saving agriculture. (2004, background): “The carbohydrate status of the leaf, which is altered in quantity and quality by water deficits, may act as a metabolic signal in the response to stress (Koch, 1996; Jang and Sheen, 1997; Chaves et al., 2003).”
Cold, salinity and drought stresses: an overview. (2005, background): “In response to a stress, the carbohydrate status of a leaf gets altered and this might serve as a metabolic signal in response to stress [111,112].”
An overview on drought induced changes in plant growth, water relationsand photosynthesis - (2012, background): “In the last years effects of water deficit were studied on different levels from ecophysiology to cell metabolism (Shinozaki and Yamaguchi-Shinogzaki, 1997; Dekov et al., 2000; Chaves et al., 2003).”
Causes and consequences of variation in leaf mass per area (LMA): a meta-analysis. (2009, background): “Starch levels are reported to be variable, either reducing as the result of sugar hydrolysis to decrease leaf osmotic potential or staying constant under drought stress (Chaves et al., 2003; Schurr et al., 2000), and so cannot explain the increase in LMA.”
Abiotic stresses, constraints and improvement strategies in chickpea (2014, background): “Further, the water deficit hinders the foremost biological process of photosynthesis and other metabolic activity of plant (Chaves 1991, Chaves et al. 2003, 2009, Pinheiro and Chaves 2011).”
Metabolomics demonstrates divergent responses of two Eucalyptus species to water stress (2012, background): “Reductions in osmotic potential have been attributed to a large number of individual compounds (e.g. proline, betaine) and classes of compounds (amino acids, cyclic and acyclic polyols, quaternary ammonium compounds) (reviewed in Chaves et al. 2003; Shao et al. 2009).”
Influence of water deficit and rewatering on the components of the ascorbate-glutathione cycle in four interspecific Prunus hybrids (2005, background): “Under non-stressful conditions, AOS are efficiently eliminated by non-enzymatic and enzymatic antioxidants, whereas during drought conditions the production of AOS exceeds the capacity of the antioxidative systems to remove them, causing oxidative stress [1,8].”
Effects of different irrigation regimes on a super-high-density olive grove cv. “Arbequina”: vegetative growth, productivity and polyphenol content of the oil (2016, background): “Although loss of turgor compromises cell metabolism (Chaves et al. 2003), olive leaves can tolerate Ψ STEMs as low as −8 MPa (Moriana et al. 2003; Xiloyannis et al. 1988).”
Climate change effects on plant disease: genomes to ecosystems. (2006, background): “These results can be linked to well-known processes occurring at a larger scale within a plant, such as stomatal closure and the inhibition of leaf growth, changes in leaf architecture, and change in root:shoot ratio (32, 34).”
