Integrated stress responses in okra plants (cv. ‘’Meya’]: unravelling the mechanisms underlying drought and nematode co-occurrence
The biochemical and molecular responses observed in okra plants (cv. ''Meya') subjected to combined stresses of drought and Meloidogyne incognita infection provide valuable insights into enhancing crop resilience under multifaceted stress conditions, particularly relevant for agricultural practices in sub-Saharan Africa facing increasing climatic challenges.
