Large pleats allow a plant to expand to store large amounts of water in areas where water is scarce Large Pleated Stem Keeps water from sitting on leaves and allowing algae or fungi to grow Drip Tips If it rains, these plants need to be able to get as much water as possible in a sho...
Plants have developed to fit almost every niche that our world has to offer. You find plants everywhere from the bottom of the oceans, to the tops of mountains and everywhere in between. How do plants do this? You may have noticed that although plants are everywhere, they are very differen...
Habitats Animals can live in all sorts of different conditions, from deserts to polar ice caps; from mountain tops to rainforests. Most animals have a particular set of conditions which they like to live in. A place with this set of conditions is called their habitat. You can think of it ...

For these reasons, the effect of different stress combinations is being more and more researched [1]. An alternative method could be the study of plants living in natural and extreme environments, like geothermal alteration fields, where different stressors naturally coexist. The few plants able ...
Root length and its architecture govern the adaptability of plants to various stress conditions, including drought stress. Genetic variations in root growth, length, and architecture are genotypes dependent. In this study, we compared the drought-induced transcriptome of four genotypes of Gossypium herba...

Climate change may affect human health through multiple and interactive pathways that include safe water scarcity. However, impacts of climate change-induc
This was consistent with the results of STRUCTURE analysis48, and suggested that although these plants had experienced long-period local adaptation in their native habitats, there was weak population structure and there had been frequent gene flow in these M. lutarioriparius populations63. In our ...
