Abstract

Desert plants are renowned for their ability to thrive in extreme environments characterized by limited water availability, high temperatures, and intense solar radiation. This paper explores the diverse adaptations that enable these plants to survive in such challenging conditions. Physiological adaptations, including water-use efficiency through CAM and C4 photosynthesis, along with morphological features such as reduced leaves and specialized root systems, play crucial roles in water conservation and heat tolerance. Behavioral adaptations, such as rapid germination and seed production following rainfall, further enhance their resilience. Understanding these adaptations not only illuminates the remarkable strategies of desert flora but also holds implications for ecological conservation and sustainable agriculture in arid regions.

Abstract

Light intensity plays a pivotal role in determining the growth and yield of plants by influencing their physiological processes, particularly photosynthesis. This paper reviews current research on how varying light intensities affect plant development, biomass production, and crop yield. Studies consistently show that optimal light conditions enhance photosynthetic efficiency and overall productivity, while inadequate or excessive light can lead to physiological stress and reduced yields. Understanding these relationships is crucial for optimizing agricultural practices, particularly in controlled environments like greenhouses. By manipulating light intensity effectively, farmers can maximize crop yields, ensure food security, and promote sustainable agriculture in diverse environmental conditions.
