An increase in temperature and extreme heat stress is responsible for the global reduction in
maize yield. Heat stress affects the integrity of the plasma membrane functioning of …

Climate change can decrease the global maize productivity and grain quality. Maize crop
requires an optimal temperature for better harvest productivity. A suboptimal temperature at …

Maize, third most important staple cereal crop across the globe, has been threatened with
different environmental constraints including heat and water deficit stress. Higher …

Global mean temperature is increasing at a rapid pace due to the rapid emission of
greenhouse gases majorly from anthropogenic practices and predicted to rise up to 1.5° C …

Background Despite the heat-related physiology and heat-shock proteins in maize have
been extensively studied, little is known about the transcriptome profiling of how the maize …

High temperatures causing heat stress disturb cellular homeostasis and impede growth and
development in plants. Extensive agricultural losses are attributed to heat stress, often in …

Maize (Zea mays L.) is an annual grass that originated in tropical and subtropical regions of
the New World. Maize is highly sensitive to cold stress during seed gemination and the …

Maize (Zea mays L.) can exhibit yield penalties as a result of unfavorable changes to
growing conditions. The main threat to current and future global maize production is heat …

The negative effects of heat stress on maize growth and reproduction is often expressed in
terms of significant yield penalty. Germplasm selection based on yield potential along with …

Global climate change exacerbates the effects of environmental stressors, such as drought,
flooding, extreme temperatures, salinity, and alkalinity, on crop growth and grain yield …
