Plants living under natural conditions are exposed to many adverse factors that interfere with
the photosynthetic process, leading to declines in growth, development, and yield. The …

Using chlorophyll (Chl) a fluorescence many aspects of the photosynthetic apparatus can be
studied, both in vitro and, noninvasively, in vivo. Complementary techniques can help to …

Plants as sessile organisms are continuously exposed to abiotic stress conditions that
impose numerous detrimental effects and cause tremendous loss of yield. Abiotic stresses …

Drought stress (DS) is amongst one of the abiotic factors affecting plant growth by limiting
productivity of crops by inhibiting photosynthesis. Damage due to DS and its protection by …

The impact of some macro (Ca, S, Mg, K, N, P) and micro (Fe) nutrients deficiency on the
functioning of the photosynthetic machinery in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) and maize …

Aloe vera L. is one of the most important medicinal plants in the world. In order to determine
the effects of light intensity and water deficit stress on chlorophyll (Chl) fluorescence and …

Drought stress is an important ecologically limiting factor that strongly affects the
physiological and biochemical reactions of medicinal plants and changes the secondary …

The effects of high temperature on CO 2 assimilation rate, processes associated with
photosynthetic electron and proton transport, as well as photoprotective responses, were …

Chlorophyll a fluorescence is a tool for evaluating plant responses to stress conditions.
Fluorescence can be used in plant phenoty** and breeding programs to monitor biotic …

The present study explored the effectiveness of SiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) as seed priming
agent (15 mg L–1) to improve drought tolerance in the wheat cultivar HI 1544. Seed …
