Recent efforts all dissecting the cross-talk between drought stress and other major abiotic stress signalling pathways also provide potential candidates for multiple stress tolerance. Most of these studies have been conducted using model plants, and engineering for drought tolerance in crop plants is still in its early stages. The number of transgenic crop plants that have undergone field trials or been tested under natural water deficit conditions is very small. Drought tolerance is a complex trait, making the transgenic production of tolerant crops a challenging prospect. Nevertheless, advances in understanding of stress signal perception and transduction and of the associated molecular regulatory networks, together with high-throughput transformation technology, have improved the possibility of achieving this goal. Recent genetic engineering of regulatory elements have resulted not only in enhanced plant survival in drought conditions per se but also in improved crop productivity under water deficit condition. This review highlights the recent advances in the area of genomics and abiotic stress tolerance in crop plants. Not Available |
