Because free proline can increase the osmotic potential of cells, promote plant cells absorbing water. When the condition of drought, the increase of Pro can help cells absorb water. Proline acts as an osmoprotectant and that overproduction of proline results in the increased tolerance to osmotic stress in plants. It also enhances root biomass and flower development in transgenic plants under drought-stress conditions.
A drought can dry out plants and create dry conditions that increase the likelihood of wildfires. High temperatures, low humidity, and dry vegetation can all contribute to the spread of wildfires.
When plants don't get enough water, it is called "drought stress" or simply "drought." This condition can lead to wilting, stunted growth, and reduced photosynthesis, ultimately affecting the plant's health and survival. Prolonged drought can result in permanent damage or death of the plant if not alleviated.
Drought can lead to reduced water availability for plants and animals, causing a decline in biodiversity. It can also increase the risk of wildfires due to dry conditions. Drought can cause soil erosion and desertification, impacting agriculture and ecosystems.
Extreme environmental conditions influence epigenetics. There are certain chemical compounds adhering to the genetic material but not altering the DNA sequence during conditions of stress to the organism. For example proline protects the plants from wilting during conditions of drought.
To save plants from drought
Drought can significantly reduce maize production by causing water stress in plants, leading to decreased yields and poor quality of maize. It can also affect plant development, pollination, and kernel formation, resulting in lower overall productivity. Additionally, drought can increase the susceptibility of maize plants to pests and diseases, further impacting harvests.
There are actually tons of drought tolerant plants - you just need to look harder.
The plants will die and there will be a drought :) :> :} :]
the plants which grow in the drought region(region where very less water is available0 e.g., cactus, date palm, bryophyllum etc.,
They will die and will be destroyed which is not good.........
One is that people are not getting enough water. The drought his affecting the nature because there no water for the plants. One is that people are not getting enough water. The drought his affecting the nature because there no water for the plants.
not enough water means no plants. The plants need water to survive, just like we need water to survive. a drought would cause crop failure, and if it's a long term drought, animals could die.
