The detection and monitoring of drought stress in plants growing in their natural habitat are crucial for studying plant stress physiology. However, it is becoming more difficult to apply simple, cost-effective methods to assess drought stress in plants, particularly in low-income countries, despite advances in plant phenotyping and new-omics technologies.
The detection and monitoring of drought stress in plants growing in their natural habitat are essential for the study of plant stress physiology. However, with the advent of plant phenotyping and new-omics technologies, the application of simple, cheap, cost-effective, quick, and practical methods to assess drought stress in plants seems more challenging than ever, particularly in low-income countries. Here, currently available methods that do not require specialized equipment, but reliably detect and monitor drought stress in plants at low cost will be discussed. This will not only boost research on plant stress physiology in low-income countries but will also help several laboratories with very limited resources around the globe to perform high-quality research.
