Biochemical and molecular mechanism of wheat to drought stresses: A review

Plants are vulnerable to various environmental stressors, reducing crop output. Plants face abiotic and biotic stress. Drought is a critical abiotic environmental stressor that has a negative impact on crop yield. According to the United Nations, Environment Programme around 60% of the world’s land...

Description
Summary:Plants are vulnerable to various environmental stressors, reducing crop output. Plants face abiotic and biotic stress. Drought is a critical abiotic environmental stressor that has a negative impact on crop yield. According to the United Nations, Environment Programme around 60% of the world’s land area is classed as dry or semiarid. Because of erratic rainfall distribution and water scarcity, there is a greater demand for creating drought-resistant species today than previously. This objective can be accomplished by thoroughly understanding drought resistance’s genetic and molecular mechanisms. Significantly accumulating metabolites in agricultural plants during drought stress are critical metabolites, and they are related to putative biochemical pathways, enzymes, or gene sites to understand tolerance processes better.
