Book

Water availability is a major factor influencing the growth, development, and survival of plants in arid and semi-arid environments. Water Stress in Argania spinosa: Physiological and Biochemical Responses examines how different Argane tree provenances respond to water stress, with particular emphasis on physiological and biochemical changes.   Drawing on experimental research involving contrasting Argane provenances from Morocco, this book explores changes in plant growth, water relations, photosynthetic performance, and biochemical responses under water-limited conditions. It compares the responses and adaptive strategies of different provenances, providing insights into the mechanisms that enable Argania spinosa to tolerate and adapt to water stress.   The book highlights the importance of understanding provenance-related variation in drought tolerance and provides valuable knowledge for identifying resilient Argane populations. It contributes to a better understanding of plant responses to water limitation in Mediterranean and semi-arid ecosystems.   This book is a useful reference for researchers, academics, students, and professionals interested in plant physiology, plant ecology, water stress, drought adaptation, and the conservation and sustainable management of Argania Spinosa.
