Discusses some of the osmoregulants and protectants such as, trehalose, fructans, ectoine and citrulline, which are generated in different species, in osmotically ineffective amounts, that mitigate the stress effects on cells/plants and improve productivity.
Though plant cells are separated by cell walls, cells maintain their identity as they are delimited by semi-permeable membranes that permit them to... Læs mere
