Plant Adaptations to Drought Stress: Morphological, Physiological and Biochemical Responses
Abstract: Drought stress is one of the major abiotic constraints affecting plant growth, development, productivity and survival. Water deficiency disrupts cellular water relations and subsequently influences plant morphology, physiology, metabolism and molecular regulation. Plants respond to drought through a combination of adaptive mechanisms rather than through a single tolerance trait. Morphological responses include modification of root architecture, reduction in leaf area, leaf rolling, changes in shoot growth and altered biomass allocation. …

Morphological, Physiological, Biochemical & Molecular Response Of Bell Pepper (Capsicum spp.) Under Salt Stress
Abstract: Bell pepper (Capsicum spp.) is an important vegetable crop known for its high nutritional value, medicinal uses, and various industrial applications. However, salinity stress is a major challenge that limits its growth, productivity, and quality, especially in dry areas. Too much salt in the soil disrupts how plants manage water, causes imbalances in ions, leads to oxidative stress, and negatively impacts morphological, physiological, biochemical, and metabolic processes. These effects significantly …

Personalized Therapy Using Drug Delivery Devices
Abstract: The persistent challenge in modern medicine lies in inter-patient heterogeneity, rendering standardized drug dosing protocols suboptimal for many chronic conditions. Traditional pharmacokinetics fail to account for real-time biological fluctuations, leading to cycles of ineffective treatment or dose-limiting toxicity. This paper explores the critical intersection of advanced drug delivery devices (DDDs) and personalized medicine, positioning these technologies as the vital link translating genomic and biological data into tangible, patient- specific interventions. …
