Because this is true of all agricultural plants, drought, or lack of water in the environment, makes crops fail and people go hungry. Many microbes, some plants, and a few animals do tolerate complete desiccation. They can lose all their water and stop growing; when drought ends, they absorb water and start growing again. This lecture will focus on three questions: (1) Which living things can tolerate desiccation -- can dry up without dying? (2) What gives them this ability? (3) Could one design crops that tolerate desiccation and so end hunger due to drought? |
