Leaf Amino Acids and Anatomical Traits of Drought Tolerant vs Sensitive Genotypes of Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) under Elevated Levels of Water Stress

A. M. M. Al-Naggar, R. M. Abd El-Salam, A. E. E. Badran, S. T. Boulos & Mai M. A. El-Moghazi · Annual Research & Review in Biology · 2018

Many plants accumulate compatible osmolytes at high levels in plant cells such as amino acids and/or develop special epidermal cell bladders which may serve as external water reservoirs and having small and thick-walled cells in response to water deficit. The objectives of the pr...
