Deciphering abiotic stress resilience in crop plants through multiomics insights and CRISPR Cas9 mediated genome editing

Abiotic factors, such as drought, salt, severe temperatures, and heavy metal toxicity, persistently threaten global agricultural production, contributing to an estimated 40–70% of yield losses in primary food crops globally. Drought diminishes yields by as much as 50% in rice, 42% in soybean, 40% in maize, 21% in wheat...
