Linking water-use strategies with drought resistance across herbaceous crops

PHYSIOLOGIA PLANTARUM, 176(1).

TL;DR: The most effective traits ensuring survival in herbaceous crops under severe drought were those related to drought avoidance mechanisms such as early stomatal closure, very low residual transpiration post‐stomatal closure, and high capacitance pre‐ and post‐turgor loss.

Abscisic acid acts essentially on stomata, not on the xylem, to improve drought resistance in tomato

Haverroth, E. J., Oliveira, L. A., Andrade, M. T., Taggart, M., McAdam, S. A. M., Zsogon, A., … Cardoso, A. A. (2023, August 1). PLANT CELL AND ENVIRONMENT, Vol. 8.

author keywords: embolism resistance; hydraulic vulnerability; minimum leaf conductance; Solanum lycopersicum; water deficit; water loss
TL;DR: Lower water loss in plants with higher ABA meant that lethal water potentials associated with embolism occurred later during drought in sp12 plants, followed by WT, and then by the ABA-deficient mutants. (via Semantic Scholar)

2016 journal article

Seed germination of Schinus molle L. (Anacardiaceae) as related to its anatomy and dormancy alleviation

Seed Science Research, 26(4), 351–361.

author keywords: acid scarification; pepper tree; photoblastic seeds; seed imbibition; seed physiology; seed structure
TL;DR: S. molle seeds are positively photoblastic and show physiological dormancy which can be alleviated by acid scarification and dry storage, and Seeds can be stored for over 12 months without significant losses in germination parameters compared to newly collected seeds. (via Semantic Scholar)
