Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleDrought Tolerance and Evaluation of Genetic Changes in Rice Mutant LinesAryanti Amsal, Ishak-ishakThe genetic improvement of rice through mutation induction to obtain drought resistance is essential for stable and adequate rice production would enable us to anticipate the rice yield-reducing effects of global warming. The aim of this research was to evaluate the rice mutant lines showing tolerance to drought condition and their genetic relationship using SSR markers. Mutant lines were obtained … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 16 Jan 2018 · 8,547 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEffect of UV-C on Drought Tolerance of Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) CallusAli Akbar Ehsanpour, Roya RazavizadehWater stress and unfavorable climate decrease the growth and development of plant globally. Medicago is a valuable plant as a source of food for animal, foliage and for medicine. Since, Iran is located in a dry area; consequently, the study of plant responses to water stress is important. In this research UV-C radiation was used to induce physiological and genetic … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,805 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDiallel Analysis and Evaluation of Parents and F1 Progenies of Maize (Zea mays L.) for Tolerance to Drought and Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth in the Guinea Savanna Agro-Ecological Zone of GhanaAlhassan Bawa, Isaac Kwahene Addai, Mashark Seidu Abdulai, Al-Hassan IssahakuField studies were conducted to evaluate 6 parents and 30 F1 hybrids of maize for tolerance to drought and Striga hermonthica in Nyankpala, Ghana during the 2014 and 2015 cropping seasons. These genotypes were evaluated for two years on single-row plots of three replicates, in a randomized complete block design. The control plants were planted in July each year which … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 25 Mar 2017 · 8,084 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTolerance of Accessions of Glagah (Saccharum spontaneum) to Drought Stress and Their Accumulation of ProlineAminatun Munawarti, Taryono, Endang Semiarti et al.Glagah (wild sugarcane, Saccharum spontaneum) is a perennial grass that grows well in marginal soils. It has a high carbohydrate and fibre content, making it suitable for ethanol production and the study industry. Thus, glagah has potential as a crop species in its own right and may also be used in sugarcane breeding programs. However, glagah germplasm has not been … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 4 Feb 2013 · 7,876 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Seaweed Extracts on Rice Growth and Tolerance to Salinity, Drought and Blast (Magnaporthe oryzae)Mir Sayeada Alam, Jannatun Nayeema, S. M. Rafiquzzaman, Motaher HossainRice, a primary staple, confronts a multitude of biotic and abiotic stresses. Drought and salinity, exacerbated by climate change and blast disease caused by Magnaporthe oryzae, significantly contribute to yield losses. To tackle the problems, two types of seaweeds-one known as Hypnea musciformis and another unknown-were collected from Saint Martin, Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh and then examined for the potential of … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 31 May 2024 · 6,506 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Proteomics Analysis of Drought Stress-Responsive Proteins as Biomarker for Drought-Tolerant Sugarcane CultivarsNisachon Jangpromma, Supansa Kitthaisong, Khomsorn Lomthaisong et al.Problem statement: The prime objective in breeding selection process of drought-tolerant sugarcane is to identify the correlating marker, which could lead to rapid screening for drought-tolerant cultivars. In this study, we have reported an unknown 18-kDa protein (p18) along with other stress-inducible proteins to be highly expressed in sugarcane leaves under drought stress condition. Approach: The 2D-PAGE patterns of proteins … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,814 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsIntroduction of the Pasture Plant Fescue (Festuca valesiaca) for the Improvement of Degraded Pastures in the Steppe Zone of KazakhstanMeldebekova Nurgul Alikhanovna, Seitbattalova Ainur Islamovna, Ainebekova Bakyt Alpysbaevna et al.This study presents the results of a comprehensive evaluation of Festuca valesiaca, a dominant perennial grass species widely used in steppe ecosystems for pasture improvement. Previous research has demonstrated the importance of native fescue species in enhancing productivity and resilience of degraded rangelands under arid conditions. However, breeding efforts for this species in Kazakhstan remain insufficiently developed. The research was … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 14 Sep 2026 · 662 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStrigolactones in Plant Stress Adaptation: Mechanisms and Agricultural PotentialHumayra Ferdus, Mahabuba Mostafa, Md. Motaher HossainAbiotic stresses have significant negative effects on the growth, development, and productivity of crop plants, which are critical to global agricultural production and ecosystem stability. Strigolactones (SLs), a family of carotenoid-derived plant phytohormones, have been identified as playing key roles in plant development and adaptive responses to environmental stimuli. Initially recognized as signaling molecules in host-parasite interactions and as symbiotic … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 4 · 3 Oct 2026 · 559 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClimate-Driven Productivity Responses and Implications for Genetic Adaptation and Breeding of Boreal Trees in KazakhstanZhadyra Baigazakova, Kuralay Mazarzhanova, Asset Satayev et al.Kazakhstan’s boreal and forest-steppe forests form the southern ecotonal edge of the West Siberian taiga, where relatively small changes in heat and moisture can trigger disproportionate impacts on tree growth, mortality, and regeneration. Although forests cover only ~4% of Kazakhstan, they provide critical ecosystem services: stabilizing hydrological regimes, buffering microclimates, protecting agricultural lands from wind and water erosion, and supporting … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 10 Aug 2026 · 709 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDifferential Response of Chitosan-Pretreated Rice Cultivars at the Seedling Stage to Drought Stress on Growth and Leaf MetabolitesWasinee Pongprayoon, Sataporn Deeying, Sakchai Hongthong et al.The escalating prevalence of drought stress presents a significant obstacle to global rice cultivation, particularly in arid regions affected by climate change-induced water scarcity. Despite extensive research on the efficacy of exogenously applied chitosan in enhancing drought tolerance across various crops, there remains a gap in understanding the differential responses of chitosan-treated rice seedlings among different cultivars and different chitosan … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 20 Dec 2024 · 5,246 accessesView PDFCite
