Water Stress: An Overview on Plant Life
Abstract
Abstract
Plant water status determines the tolerance and escapability of a plant towards the drought or other stress. There are morphological, physiological and biochemical significance of the drought. Plants have the drought tolerance capability by changing its physiology and biochemical compounds. The accumulation or relocation of the bio compounds determines the stress tolarance capacity and those compounds are called stress tolerance compounds. In normal they are the middle or end product of the physiological processes, but in stress they play the key role in escaping the adverse condition.
Keywords: Drought, tolerance, bio-compounds, net assimilation rate
