Plant resistance to drought depends on timely stomatal closure. (2017, background): “Stomatal closure in response to water deficit is the primary limitation to photosynthesis (Flexas & Medrano 2002), and constitutes a key cost in terms of plant growth and temperature regulation under drought conditions.”
Physiological tools for irrigation scheduling in grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.): An open gate to improve water-use efficiency? (2005, background): “, 2002a) or even different C3 species (Flexas and Medrano, 2002; Medrano et al., 2002) followed a very similar pattern of downregulation of different photosynthetic parameters in response to progressive soil”
Limitation to photosynthesis in water-stressed leaves: stomata vs. metabolism and the role of ATP. (2002, background): “However, the amount of Rubisco protein is generally little affected by moderate or severe stress (Flexas and Medrano, 2002), even if experienced over a period of many days (e.g. Medrano et al., 1997; Tezara et al., 1999).”
Photoprotection processes under water stress and recovery in Mediterranean plants with different growth forms and leaf habits (2007, background): “The importance of alternative electron sinks, such as the Mehler-ascorbate peroxidase reaction, has been shown to be minor both under wellwatered conditions and drought in other Mediterranean species (Flexas and Medrano 2002).”
Physiological and morphological diversity of cultivated strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa) in response to water deficit (2010, background): “A decrease in gs is the major limitation to A during mild to moderate drought stress (Flexas and Medrano, 2002).”
Effect of vermicompost fertilizer on photosynthetic characteristics of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) under drought stress (2016, background): “An initial response of plants to water stress is activation of the mechanism for stomata closure to prevent further water loss (Flexas and Medrano 2002).”
Modelling C3 and C4 photosynthesis under water-stressed conditions (2008, result): “…(e.g., Griffiths and Parry 2002 and references therein), which has been fuelled in part by the discrepancies among different studies (as shown by Flexas and Medrano 2002) and the difficulties in comparing experimental results for different species, plant conditions before water stress, methods…”
Effect of drought on growth, photosynthesis and total antioxidant capacity of the saharan plant Oudeneya africana (2020, background): “…the value of gs in most treatments exceeded 0.1 mol Jo ur na l P re -p ro of H2O m -2 s-1 except in T2/20-d-treated plants, which, as reported by Flexas and Medrano (2002), is considered a low level of stress, while gs reached 0.045 in T2/20-d-treated plants which corresponds to severe drought.”
IRRIGATION, SPACING AND CULTIVAR EFFECTS ON NET PHOTOSYNTHETIC RATE, DRY MATTER PARTITIONING AND PRODUCTIVITY OF RICE UNDER SYSTEM OF RICE INTENSIFICATION IN MOLLISOLS OF NORTHERN INDIA (2013, background): “Photosynthetic inhibition is one of the primary detrimental effects of water stress (Flexas and Medrano, 2002; Lawlor and Cornic, 2002).”
