Methodology of Drought Stress Research: Experimental Setup and Physiological Characterization

Abstract: Drought is one of the major stress factors affecting growth and development of plants. In this context, drought-related losses of crop plant productivity impede sustainable agriculture all over the world. In general, plants responses to water deficit by multiple physiological and metabolic adaptations at the molecular, cellular and organism levels. To understand the underlying mechanisms of drought tolerance, adequate stress models and arrays of reliable stress markers are required. Therefore, in this review w… Show more

“…The resilience to drought is the result of the combined effects of these methods. The drought resistance refers to the capacity of plants to sustain a good balance of water and turgidity status even when they are subjected to water stress situations (Osmolovskaya et al, 2018). Plants are able to finish their life cycle prior to the beginning of drought, which is a method known as drought escape (Figure 2).…”

“…Like in most crop farming, maize production is affected by the unpredictable weather and climatic factors especially that of drought (Wilhite and Glantz, 1985;Cudjoe et al, 2021). A plant is said to be undergoing drought stress if the available water in the soil required for optimum growth and biomass production of the plant has dropped below the plant rhizosphere (Osmolovskaya et al, 2018). Drought is often caused by changing weather patterns exacerbated by human activities leaving many lives with devastating effects such as mass starvation, famine and cessation of economic activity especially in areas where agriculture is the major booster of the economy.…”

“…Obviously, dehydration associated with severe long-term persisting drought cannot be sustained by the organism and ultimately leads to viability loss and death. On the other hand, transient dehydration triggers adaptive stress responses which ensure plant survival during the unfavorable period and help to sustain or regain its productivity [2].…”
