“…The management of Osmo protectants i.e. proline, glycine, betaine which help in drought tolerance conditions by providing energy (Rashid et al, 2021). The drought conditions are managed by drought escape that means change their life cycle and drought avoidance that means by increasing the number of the water saver or water spenders on the basis of minimization of water loss.…”

Wheat is a mainstay of Nepalese cuisine, and it is the third most important cereal crop cultivated throughout the nation all through the winter months. The impact of abiotic stress on wheat, such as heat and drought, is discussed in this review article. Drought and heat stress influence biochemical, physiological, and morphological processes in plants, causing a significant reduction in yield and yield attributing characteristics. Drought at CRI reduces yield by 60%, while Heat stress causes about 16 yield loss depending on the severity of the environment. Understanding the physiological and biochemical responses of crops to any unfavorable circumstance is essential for developing mechanisms and techniques for plant tolerance. Drought tolerance is managed by drought escape, drought avoidance and drought traits. Heat stress is also endured by the plant’s anti-oxidative defense mechanism and the synthesis of heat shock proteins (HSPs).

“…The important part in the drought tolerance is antioxidant defense system and lipid peroxidation (Rashid et al, 2021). It's a biochemical change where reactive oxygen species (ROS) increase and proline also increases.…”
