Wheat Drought Tolerance: Genetic, Physiological, and Molecular Insights
Received Date: May 01, 2025 / Published Date: May 29, 2025
Abstract
This research investigates drought tolerance in wheat, covering genetic, physiological, biochemical, and epigenetic aspects. Key genes, QTLs, transcription factors, root architecture, and microRNAs influencing stress resilience are identified. Mechanisms involving osmotic adjustment, antioxidant enzymes, osmoprotectants, and ABA signaling are elucidated. Findings aim to inform breeding programs and genetic engineering strategies for developing drought-resistant wheat varieties.
