Increasing temperature and consequent changes in climate adversely affect plant growth
and development, resulting in catastrophic loss of wheat productivity. For each degree rise …

The general circulation models estimated an average increase in global surface
temperature about 4° C (2.9 to 5.5° C). Escalating temperature and extreme weather events …

Wheat is the most important cereal crop in the world. It contributes as a major source of
protein and calories in the daily human diet. Drought has become a major abiotic stress that …

Plants are exposed to a wide range of temperatures during their life cycle and need to
continuously adapt. These adaptations need to deal with temperature changes on a daily …

Abstract Fluoride (F−), a harmful compound if present in high concentration, is typically
found in groundwater. It is important to investigate the F− concentrations in groundwaters of …

Understanding the physiological mechanism of tolerance under stress conditions is an
imperative aspect of the crop improvement programme. The role of plant hormones is well …

Terminal heat stress has become one of the major threats due to global climate change
which is significantly affecting the production and productivity of wheat crop. Therefore, it is …

The present study was undertaken to understand the combined impact of thermal imaging
and multivariate techniques to characterize and screen different wheat genotypes under …

Eight Trichoderma strains were evaluated for their potential to protect wheat seedlings
against severe (no irrigation within two weeks) water stress (WS). Considering the plant …

The reproductive compromise under heat stress is a major obstacle to achieve high grain
yield and quality in wheat worldwide. Securing reproductive success is the key solution to …
