PSII Fluorescence Techniques for Measurement of Drought and High Temperature Stress Signal in Crop Plants: Protocols and Applications (2013, background): “As the population continues to grow rapidly, the pressure on resources, mainly untouched land and water, is also increasing, and potential climate change poses further challenges (Araus et al. 2008).”
Improving Maize Grain Yield under Drought Stress and Non-stress Environments in Sub-Saharan Africa using Marker-Assisted Recurrent Selection (2016, background): “However, the background specificity of the identified QTL and the absence of QTL with large individual effects have limited their applicability in maize improvement for drought tolerance (Tuberosa et al., 2007; Araus et al., 2008).”
Phenotypic Diversity of Root Anatomical and Architectural Traits in Zea Species (2013, background): “However, root traits are receiving increasing attention as a means of improving tolerance to abiotic stresses such as drought, waterlogging, salinity, and suboptimal nutrient availability (Zhu et al., 2005ab; Araus et al., 2008; Mano et al., 2008; Tuberosa and Silvio, 2009; Bayuelo-Jiménez et al., 2”
General mechanisms of drought response and their application in drought resistance improvement in plants (2014, background): “Storage and remobilisation of water soluble carbohydrates (WSC) in stems and leaves is an essential contributor to grain filling, especially under the water-limiting conditions [210].”
Drought Stress in Wheat during Flowering and Grain-filling Periods (2014, background): “Early vigor and/or rapid phenological development (early maturity) is the most widely used drought escape mechanism where drought during reproductive and grain-filling phases constrains grain filling (Araus et al., 2002, 2008).”
Climate Change Impacts and Adaptation Strategies of Agriculture in Mediterranean-Climate Regions (MCRs) (2019, background): “the proportion of aboveground biomass distributed to the grain, also decreases under terminal drought stress [28].”
Prediction of grain yield using reflectance spectra of canopy and leaves in maize plants grown under different water regimes (2012, background): “Canopy based measurements will encompass crop performance at the organizational level, providing a more integrative measure of plant performance (Araus et al., 2008).”
Effects of Drought Stress on Some Agronomic and Morpho-Physiological Traits in Durum Wheat Genotypes (2020, background): “Similar to other crops, the important physio-chemical responses and parameters for evaluating drought response in wheat include chlorophyll content, stomatal conductance, leaf water potential, photosynthetic rate, and transpiration rate [8].”
Use of thermography for high throughput phenotyping of tropical maize adaptation in water stress (2011, background): “This approach has been investigated for different crops including cereals (Araus et al., 2008).”
Ecophysiological traits of the macaw palm: A contribution towards the domestication of a novel oil crop (2013, background): “The study of parameters involved in carbon assimilation and its intrinsic variations can help reveal the photosynthetic patterns of a particular species (Araus et al., 2008; Teng et al., 2004; Nunes et al., 2009).”
Magnesium applications to growth medium and foliage affect the starch distribution, increase the grain size and improve the seed germination in wheat (2016, background): “In germinating seeds , there is intensive sucrose transportation from scutellum into actively developing sink tissues of roots and shoots to maintain germination ( Aoki et al .”
Nonlinear heat effects on African maize as evidenced by historical yield trials (2011, background): “For example, a main strategy will probably be breeding for improved abiotic stress, but the particular traits that present the largest opportunities for progress are often unclea”
Mechanisms of plant response to salt and drought stress and their alteration by rhizobacteria (2016, background): “Given the many environmental challenges facing the agriculture industry, significant genetic improvement of crops (Araus et al. 2008) or the use of plant growth-promoting bacteria that interact with those crops (Glick 2012) are needed to maintain or increase crop yields, in the presence of suboptima”
