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...
2007. A mitochondrial protein homologous to the mammalian peripheral-type benzodiazepine receptor is essential for stress adaptation in plants. Plant Journal 51: 1004-1018.Frank, W., et al. (2007). A mitochondrial protein homologous to the mammalian peripheral-type benzodiazepine receptor is essen- ...
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...
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...
Adaptation Here are a few of the different ways animals have adapted. Seals have adapted to living in cold water because they have a thick layer of blubber to keep them warm and a streamlined shape which helps them to move through the water. ...

when most of the low-elevation oaks were believed to retreat to the refuge in southern Taiwan [101,102]. Also, implying colonization resulting from Pleistocene climate oscillations could prompted the diversification and local adaptation of plants in Taiwan Island. Taken together, our results reveal ...
