Water-deficit stress-induced anatomical changes in higher plants. (2008, background): “Water stress reduces the biomass of fibrous roots in Avocado cultivars [98] and in pearl millet [84,86].”
Spring wheat response to timing of water deficit through sink and grain filling capacity (2009, background): “2b and c), could have provided further protection to cell structures and increased leaf longevity (Lawlor and Cornic, 2002).”
Response of leaf respiration to water stress in Mediterranean species with different growth forms (2007, background): “to green biomass), while respiration occurs continuously in every plant organ, the latter may be an equally important factor controlling productivity, particularly when photosynthesis is largely depressed, such as under drought conditions (Lawlor and Cornic, 2002; Flexas et al., 2005).”
Amelioration of water stress by potassium fertilizer in two oilseed species (2009, background): “Water stress is generally characterized by decrease in RWC and water potential, resulting in wilting, stomatal closure and reduced growth (Lawlor and Cornic, 2002).”
Evaluation of the stress-inducible production of proline in transgenic sugarcane (Saccharum spp.): osmotic adjustment, chlorophyll fluorescence and oxidative stress (2007, methodology): “In drought conditions, the photosynthetic activity decreases considerably in higher plants (Lawlor and Cornic 2002) as a result of the stomatal closure or through metabolic impairment.”
