Paper Summary

A study looked at how different types of alfalfa plants respond to drought stress by measuring the activity of three antioxidative enzymes. The results showed that varieties with strong drought resistance had higher enzyme activity and yields. The plants were grouped based on their enzyme activity and yield into strong, moderate, and weak drought resistant categories.
