On the world stage, the increase in temperatures due to global warming is already a reality
that has become one of the main challenges faced by the scientific community. Since …

Global warming and climate change are driving an alarming increase in the frequency and
intensity of different abiotic stresses, such as droughts, heat waves, cold snaps, and …

Human activity is causing a global change in plant environment that includes a significant
increase in the number and intensity of different stress factors. These include combinations …

Each year, abiotic stress conditions such as drought, heat, salinity, cold and particularly their
different combinations, inflict a heavy toll on crop productivity worldwide. The effects of these …

Water deficiency compromises plant performance and yield in many habitats and in
agriculture. In addition to survival of the acute drought stress period which depends on plant …

Climate change is predicted to increase the frequency and intensity of abiotic stress
combinations that negatively impact plants and pose a serious threat to crop yield and food …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a key role in the acclimation process of plants to abiotic
stress. They primarily function as signal transduction molecules that regulate different …

Under field conditions crops are routinely subjected to a number of different abiotic stress
factors simultaneously. Recent studies revealed that the response of plants to a combination …

The complexity of environmental conditions encountered by plants in the field, or in nature,
is gradually increasing due to anthropogenic activities that promote global warming, climate …

Heat stress along with low water availability at reproductive stage (terminal growth phase of
