To ensure the food security of future generations and to address the challenge of the 'no
hunger zone'proposed by the FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization), crop production …

Plants demonstrate a broad range of responses to environmental shifts. One of the most
remarkable responses is plasticity, which is the ability of a single plant genotype to produce …

High temperatures are a major threat to plant growth and development, leading to yield
losses in crops. Calcium-dependent protein kinases (CPKs) act as critical components of …

Abiotic stresses can cause a substantial decline in fruit quality due to negative impacts on
plant growth, physiology and reproduction. The objective of this study was to verify if the use …

Global climate change is accompanied by carbon dioxide (CO2) enrichment and high
temperature (HT) stress; however, how plants adapt to the combined environments and the …

Heat stress is a major limiting factor for crop productivity. Tomato is highly sensitive to heat
stress, which can result in a total yield loss. To adapt to current and future heat stress, there …

Heat stress is one of the production constraints for tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) due to
unfavorable, above optimum temperatures. This research was undertaken to evaluate …

Main conclusion This article unveiled that ethylene biosynthesis and signaling play a critical
role in heat stress response of tomato plants under elevated CO 2. Abstract Plant responses …

BACKGROUND Global warming and extreme or adverse events induced by climatic
fluctuations are an important threat for plants growth and agricultural production. Adaptability …

Global climate change is increasing the range of temperatures that crop plants must face
during their life cycle, giving negative effects to yields. In this changing scenario …
