Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Most species of plants can survive short dry periods without serious injury, but a prolonged period of soil water deficiency is highly injurious or lethal to all except those species of plants with a well-developed capacity for drought resistance ... A fundamental factor in the drought resistance of plants therefore appears to be a capacity of the cells to endure a substantial reduction in their water content without suffering injury. 3, record 1, English, - drought%20resistance
