  Mechanisms of Abiotic Stress Responses and Tolerance in Plants Physiological Intervention

  By Nisha Chauhan, Kriti Gupta

  Abstract: Recent progress in our understanding of the biological interactions that occur in the rhizosphere and of the practical requirements for inoculant formulation and delivery should increase the technology’s reliability in the field and facilitate its commercial development. The present work was initiated to characterize the abiotic stress-tolerating strains of chickpea (Cicer arietinum) rhizobium isolated from the nodules of chickpea plants collected from the field. Comparative ecological studies were carried out …

  Effect of Abiotic Stress on Chickpea: Physiological Perspective

  By Nisha Chauhan, Kriti Gupta, Isha Chandra

  Abstract: Despite a worldwide intensification of agriculture and tremendous progress towards increasing yields in major crops over the last decade, the goal to reduce the problems associated with abiotic and biotic stress due to unfavourable climate, plant diseases and pests, still remains unfulfilled. Increased plant productivity, therefore relies on a high chemical input and is achieved at the expense of detrimental effect on the environment. To survive both microbe and plants …
