DESCRIPTION:Some Angiosperms are known to tolerate loss of 95% of their ce
 llular water\, without dying\, not dissimilar to seeds. Vegetative desicca
 tion tolerance (DT) first arose with the transition from aquatic to terres
 trial life forms\, but it was lost as plants acquired mechanisms for droug
 ht resistance. DT was then confined to seeds\, spores\, and pollen grains 
 The molecular mechanisms and their regulation underlying this remarkable a
 bility are potentially useful to design tolerant crops. Since most crops p
 roduce desiccation tolerant seeds\, genomic information for this attribute
  is present but inactive in vegetative parts of the plant. Based on recent
  evidence from both seeds and desiccation tolerant Angiosperms potential r
 outes to 'flipping the switch' to vegetative desiccation tolerance in majo
 r crops are addressed.
