Abstract

Plants are firmly anchored in the soil, and they cannot evade the vagaries of nature by moving towards a convenient location as we normally encounter in case of animals. However, they are endowed with an ability to perceive the advent of an adverse environmental condition and also take adequate precaution to overcome such a condition. The current article deals with one such response of the plants when they face a condition of drought.
