Abstract excerpt
Water deficit (WD) leads to significant phenotypic changes in crops resulting from complex stress regulation mechanisms involving responses at the physiological, biochemical and molecular levels. Tomato growth and fruit quality have been shown to be significantly affected by WD stress. Understanding the molecular mechanism underlying response to WD is crucial to develop tomato cultivars with relatively high...
