"Drought stress is a condition of moisture deficit sufficient to have an adverse effect on vegetation, animals, and man over a sizeable area"
Heat stress is defined as “the rise in temperature beyond a threshold level for a period of time sufficient to cause irreversible damage to plant growth and development”

Drought stress Vs heat stress• Its difficult to delineate between drought and
heat stress
• Drought stress often occurs together with heat
stress in the field
• The regulatory system for both stresses may
have co-evolved [Barnabas et al. 2008]

Effect of water deficiency on Flower initiation
• Delay in flower induction and inflorescence
development leads to a delay in flowering
(Winkel et al. 1997)

Effect of High temperature on flower initiation
• Temperatures > 30 °C during floret formation cause complete sterility in wheat
Saini & Aspinall (1982)• In wheat, the number of kernels per unit area
decreases at a rate of 4% for each degree increase in mean temperature during anthesis
Fischer (1985)• In rice, floral abnormalities induced by heat stress (i.e.
stamen hypoplasia and pistil hyperplasia), leading to spikelet sterility
Takeoka et al. (1991)15

Water deficiency on ovary and female Water deficiency on ovary and female gametophyte developmentgametophyte development
• In maize, drought stress leads to delay in female organ development, while the male inflorescence is less affected
• in the ABA concentration of the ovary when
compared with irrigated maize plants
• High ABA levels in early reproductive structures may inhibit cell division and impair floret and then seed development
Yang et al. (2001a)16
![Page 17: Impact of drought and heat stress on reproductive process of crop plants](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022020208/55a620b91a28abf2648b47d9/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• During water deficit, the phloem-mobile dye carboxyfluorescein is fed to the stems of maize
• They found less movement to the ovary than in controls supplied with water
• This confirmed that less sugar was delivered by the phloem to the pedicel during water shortage
Makela et al. (2005)

• The ovaries also displayed less cell wall-bound invertase activity when the plants were subjected to a water shortage
Zinselmeier et al. (1995)
• In Arabidopsis reported that, even in harshly stressed condition plants can allocate sufficient resources into the female generative organs to produce a few seeds, ensuring that the genetic line is continued
Sun, et al. (2004)

Effect of elevated temperature on ovary and
embryo sac development
• Saini & Aspinall (1982) observed that a level of heat
stress that caused male sterility in wheat had no
damaging influence on the functions of female sexual
generation, suggesting that the female gametophyte
had greater heat stress tolerance

Effect of water deficiency on Effect of water deficiency on pollen developmentpollen development
• Water deficit in the meiotic stage may reduce the grain
set by 35–75% in various cultivars of self-pollinated crops
• In case of wheat, drought stress results in increased
pollen sterility due to abnormalities in microsporogenesis
and microgametogenesis
Saini et al. (1984)

Effect of drought stress on fertilization
• In maize, abortion is highly dependent on the
timing of water stress: low water availability
before pollination resulted in abortion even if
sufficient water was available at the time of
pollination
(Westgate & Boyer 1986)

Effect of heat stress on fertilization
• In wheat, High-temperature stress (>30 °C) from
early meiosis to pollen maturity has a damaging
effect on the viability of pollen grains, resulting in
a failure of fertilization, and thus in a reduction in
seed set
(Saini & Aspinall,1982)

• Increased temperature over the mid-anthesis period decreased the grain number per ear at maturity in spring wheat
Ferris et al. (1998)
• Sterility is caused by poor anther dehiscence and low pollen production, and hence low number of germinating pollen grains on the stigma
• In maize, reduction in seed set occurs at temperatures higher than 38 °C mainly because of a reduction in pollen germination ability and pollen tube elongation

Grain Filling Under Heat And Drought
• Large yield losses in cereals because of reduction in starch accumulation
• In wheat, drought (20 days at endosperm cell division) resulted in 30–40% lower endosperm cell number, and the number of small starch granules per cells was also reduced by 45%
(Nicolas et al. 1985)

1. Water use efficiency (WUE): Increasing the yield or biomass per unit of water availability
Unit: (g DM/Kg water used)
WUE can be increased either
by decreasing transpiration or
by increasing photosynthetic rate

1. Osmoprotectants: involves the upregulation of compatible solutes (osmolytes) that function primarily to maintain cell turgor
• Compatible solutes are low molecular weight, highly soluble compounds that are usually nontoxic at high cellular concentrations
• The three major groups of compatible solutes are
Amino acids (such as proline),
Quaternary amines (such as glycine betaine (GlyBet),
polyamines, and dimethylsulfonioproprionate),
Polyol/Sugars (such as mannitol, galactinol, and trehalose

2. Late embryogenesis abundent proteins
• LEA proteins are produced in response to dehydration stress
• Functions: Protection of cytosolic structures, Ion sequestration, Protein renaturation, Transport of nuclear targeted proteins, Prevention of membrane leakage, Protein stabilization

3. Heat shock protein genes• Typical response to heat stress is a decrease in
the synthesis of normal proteins, accompanied by an accelerated transcription and translation of new proteins known as heat shock proteins (HSPs)

Genetic Engineering approach
Can loose over 95%
water content and
survive for prolonged
periods
Survive at a RWC of
4%, while the lethal
RWC of most of the
crop plants and
mesophytes is 30-50%[32 % Pegion pea, 50% Soyabean ]
