This presentation seeks to examine a photographic portrait of Martina Navratilova by Annie Leibovitz.

Reflective Preface

Summary Of Proposed Research

Global drought not only affects the world agriculture and economics, but interactively affects the phenotypic trait of plants across a different diversity gradient. Nevertheless, plants are able to adapt themselves to the drought environment by changing their phenotypic trait.
