Effects of Exogenously Added Ascorbic Acid, Thiamin or Aspirin on Photosynthesis and Some Related Activities of Drought-Stressed Wheat Plants

  • Chapter
Photosynthesis: Mechanisms and Effects

Abstract

Water shortage induced numerous and complex effects on plant growth, photosynthesis and metabolism. However in some plants, the photosynthetic apparatus is remarkably resistant to dehydration (1;2), thus allowing a rapid recovery of the plant after rehydration.
