Also known as the blanket flower, gaillardia is a heat-resistant and drought-tolerant plant in the sunflower family. The blooms look attractive and become excellent cut flowers. 8. King’s Mantle Botanical Name: Thunbergia erecta USDA Zones: 9-11 Also called bush clock vine, it is a shrub...
The heat stress (HS) response in plants involves complex processes at the molecular, cellular, and whole-organism levels. Sensitivity to HS differs based on the species and developmental stage of the plant, making it challenging to define HS and its impacts. Efforts to enhance HS tolerance by ...
switching on numerous genes. Although breeding has made substantial advances in developing heat-tolerant lines, the genetic basis and diversity of heat tolerance in plants remain largely unknown. The development of new varieties is expensive and time-consuming, and knowledge of heat tolerance mechanisms...
Tolerant of harsh growing conditions, petunia flowers prefer full sun and well-drained soil to thrive. Verbena An annual flower, verbena (Verbena x hybrida) is a rapid-growing flower with a spreading growth habit. Drought-tolerant, verbena flourishes in the high heat of summer, but without sac...

As well as identifying the need for a greater understanding on how the duration of temperature extremes impact on yield, as well as the cumulative effects of multiple heat/frost events and the interactions with other abiotic stresses including drought....
Climatic chamber experiments are relatively complicated and costly with perennial plants like the grapevine, which has an annual reproductive cycle. Therefore, experiments are usually carried out in the field, where the fine control of temperature becomes obviously impossible, on the contrary to water ...
Like the Desert Willow, the Chilean Mesquite is an excellent choice for those who want a tree with lots of slender, spreading leaves and drooping branches. These sturdy trees are native to South America, but you’ll find them in any area that supports drought tolerant growth. ...
