Abstract

Plants rely on photosynthesis to convert light energy into chemical energy. However, their photosynthetic performance can be greatly affected by changes in the abiotic environment such as temperature, light intensity, and water availability. This draft summarizes the impact of changing abiotic conditions on photosynthetic adaptation in plants. Plants have developed various adaptive mechanisms to optimize their photosynthetic efficiency under different abiotic stresses. For example, under high light intensity, plants may regulate their photosynthetic apparatus by reducing the size of their light-harvesting antenna or increasing the activity of photorespiration. Similarly, under low water availability, plants can close their stomata to prevent water loss and reduce their photosynthetic activity, or activate molecular pathways to enhance drought tolerance. Understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying these adaptations is essential for develo** strategies to improve crop productivity and sustainability under changing environmental conditions. Advances in molecular biology and biotechnology have provided new tools for identifying genes and proteins involved in photosynthetic adaptation in plants. These findings can be applied to develop crop varieties that are better adapted to different environmental conditions, such as drought, high temperatures, or high salinity. Despite the progress made in understanding the impact of changing abiotic environments on photosynthetic adaptation in plants, there are still many challenges to be addressed. The complex interactions between plants and their environment, as well as the potential effects of multiple stresses, require further investigation. In addition, there is a need to develop sustainable agricultural practices that can mitigate the negative impacts of climate change on crop productivity.
