Abiotic Stress Resistance
Abiotic stress resistance is the ability of plants to withstand and adapt to non-living environmental factors such as extreme temperature, drought, salinity, and high light intensity. It requires specialized physiological and biochemical mechanisms that help plants maintain their cellular functions and protect them from damage. This trait is important for crops and other plants that are subjected to harsh or variable environments, and improving abiotic stress resistance is a major goal of plant breeding and genetic engineering efforts.
