An overview of methods used in plant breeding. Special emphasis is given to molecular breeding and breeding for tolerance to abiotic stress with topics including mapping, markers and QTL, transgenics, ...
Frontiers: Novel genetic approaches for enhancing abiotic stress tolerance in forage plant species
Abiotic stress tolerance in forage plants represents a vital area in plant science, particularly given the increasing frequency of extreme weather events ...
Novel genetic approaches for enhancing abiotic stress tolerance in forage plant species
Plants encounter a diverse array of abiotic stresses that range from drought, salinity and extreme temperatures to flooding and hypoxia, all of which markedly influence their growth and productivity.
"The plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) is significantly increased upon abiotic stressors, inducing physiological responses to adapt to stress and regulate gene expression. Although many studies have ...

Nature: Plant Lipid Transfer Proteins and Their Roles in Abiotic Stress Tolerance
Manipulating the content of carotenoids, such as ß-carotene, has been found to improve plant growth and increase yield and tolerance to abiotic stresses such as drought and salinity. Within ...
Drought is the most devastating abiotic stress factor worldwide affecting crop production and projected to worsen with anticipated climate change. It severely limits plant growth and development as ...
Soil salinity is a key abiotic stress factor. Salt stress substantially impairs plant growth, development, and productivity, significantly reducing crop yields worldwide. It induces various kinds of ...
