Drought (water deficits) and heat (high temperatures) stress are the prime abiotic
constraints, under the current and climate change scenario in future. Any further increase in …

Melatonin is a pleiotropic molecule with multiple functions in plants. Since the discovery of
melatonin in plants, numerous studies have provided insight into the biosynthesis …

Heat stress (HS) is one of the major abiotic stresses affecting the production and quality of
wheat. Rising temperatures are particularly threatening to wheat production. A detailed …

Global warming is predicted to have a general negative effect on plant growth due to the
damaging effect of high temperatures on plant development. The increasing threat of …

Plants grow in dynamic environments where they can be exposed to a multitude of stressful
factors, all of which affect their development, yield, and, ultimately, reproductive success …

Most plants show considerable capacity to adjust their photosynthetic characteristics to their
growth temperatures (temperature acclimation). The most typical case is a shift in the …

Global warming has led to increased temperature of the earth which is a major abiotic stress
posing a serious threat to the plants. Photosynthesis is amongst the plant cell functions that …

Climate change is altering phenology and distributions of many species and further changes
are projected. Can species physiologically adapt to climate warming? We analyse thermal …

Many environmental conditions fluctuate and organisms need to respond effectively. This is
especially true for temperature cues that can change in minutes to seasons and often follow …

The increased prevalence of high temperatures (HTs) around the world is a major global
concern, as they dramatically affect agronomic productivity. Upon HT exposure, plants sense …
