Remote detection and monitoring of the vegetation responses to stress became relevant for
sustainable agriculture. Ongoing developments in optical remote sensing technologies have …

Growth–defense tradeoffs are thought to occur in plants due to resource restrictions, which
demand prioritization towards either growth or defense, depending on external and internal …

In the last few years, large efforts have been made to develop new methods to optimize
stress detection in crop fields. Thus, plant phenotyping based on imaging techniques has …

Stomata play a central role in plant responses to abiotic and biotic stresses. Existing
knowledge regarding the roles of stomata in plant stress is centered on abiotic stresses and …

Stomatal regulation is a key determinant of plant photosynthesis and water relations,
influencing plant survival, adaptation, and growth. Stomata sense the surrounding …

Leaves are extraordinarily variable in form, longevity, venation architecture, and capacity for
photosynthetic gas exchange. Much of this diversity is linked with water transport capacity …

Since the publication of the third edition of the Handbook of Plant and Crop Stress,
continuous discoveries in the fields of plant and crop environmental stresses and their …

Under herbivore attack plants mount a defence response characterized by the accumulation
of secondary metabolites and inhibitory proteins. Significant changes are observed in the …

Background Herbivory reduces leaf area, disrupts the function of leaves, and ultimately
alters yield and productivity. Herbivore damage to foliage typically is assessed in the field by …

In Arabidopsis, the MYC2 transcription factor on the one hand and the AP2/ERF transcription
factors ORA59 and ERF1 on the other hand regulate distinct branches of the jasmonic acid …
