“…Although photosynthesis may be restricted at 30% RWC in Sporobolus stapfianus by stomatal closure and reduced abundance of the Rubisco large subunit, synthesis of ATP and NADPH is supported by increased abundance of cytoplasmic and plastidic enzymes of glycolysis, a process well established in algae and microorganisms (Oliver et al 2011b). Lowered abundance of malate dehydrogenase may reduce metabolism of pyruvate in the TCA respiratory cycle (Oliver et al 2011b).…”

Abstract. In a minute proportion of angiosperm species, rehydrating foliage can revive from airdryness or even from equilibration with air of~0% RH. Such desiccation tolerance is known from vegetative cells of some species of algae and of major groups close to the evolutionary path of the angiosperms. It is also found in the reproductive structures of some algae, moss spores and probably the aerial spores of other terrestrial cryptogamic taxa. The occurrence of desiccation tolerance in the seed plants is overwhelmingly in the aerial reproductive structures; the pollen and seed embryos. Spatially and temporally, pollen and embryos are close ontogenetic derivatives of the angiosperm microspores and megaspores respectively. This suggests that the desiccation tolerance of pollen and embryos derives from the desiccation tolerance of the spores of antecedent taxa and that the basic pollen/embryo mechanism of desiccation tolerance has eventually become expressed also in the vegetative tissue of certain angiosperm species whose drought avoidance is inadequate in microhabitats that suffer extremely xeric episodes. The protective compounds and processes that contribute to desiccation tolerance in angiosperms are found in the modern groups related to the evolutionary path leading to the angiosperms and are also present in the algae and in the cyanobacteria. The mechanism of desiccation tolerance in the angiosperms thus appears to have its origins in algal ancestors and possibly in the endosymbiotic cyanobacteria-related progenitor of chloroplasts and the bacteria-related progenitor of mitochondria. The mechanism may involve the regulation and timing of the accumulation of protective compounds and of other contributing substances and processes.

This chapter shows how altered mitochondrial biochemistry in stress‐treated plants leads to changes in mitochondrial composition, enabling mitochondria to play a dissipative role that enhances cell survival. It then reviews how plant respiration is affected by three major environmental stresses: temperature, drought and salinity. When external stresses including chemical, abiotic, biotic and environmental stresses are applied to whole plants, a well‐known consequence is the induction of oxidative stress within plant cells. Mitochondrial metabolism is highly connected to many functions in plants and therefore tolerance to plant cell stress is a partnership between diverse cellular processes and the products of mitochondrial reactions. The chapter examines the three most analysed aspects of this partnership including, the role of mitochondria during photosynthesis, their contribution to root function and the products of mitochondria that directly fuel tolerance mechanisms.
