Abstract:
... There is currently a growing interest in soilless substrates for blueberry cultivation. Identifying optimal substrate for the growth and development of the crop, and understanding the physiological response of blueberries is not only essential to determine the appropriate growing conditions, but also to improve the quality of the fruit. In this study, we evaluated the development and physiological ...

Abstract:
... In recent year, widespread declines of Populus bolleana Lauche trees (P. bolleana, which dieback from the top down) and Haloxylon ammodendron shrubs (H. ammodendron, which dieback starting from their outer canopy) have occurred. To investigate how both intra-canopy hydraulic changes and plasticity in hydraulic properties create differences in vulnerability between these two species, we conducted a ...

Abstract:
... Due to increased drought frequency following climate change, practices improving water use efficiency and reducing water-stress are needed. The efficiency of organic amendments to improve plant growth conditions under drought is poorly known. Our aim was to investigate if organic amendments can attenuate plant water-stress due to their effect on the plant-soil system and if this effect may increas ...
... Dopamine is a naturally occurring amine in plants and animals, having a strong antioxidative capacity. Different abiotic stressors, such as drought, salinity, and nutrient deficiency induce endogenous dopamine biosynthesis, while exogenous dopamine application confers tolerance to abiotic stress. Plants benefit from exogenous dopamine to promote photosynthetic pigment concentrations, stomatal cond ...
... Agriculture lands have low fertilizer retention owing to porosity and irrigation, whereas a significant portion of fertilizer is lost through denitrification, volatilization, surface run-off, and leaching, causing losses of nutrients to air and ground/surface water. Urea fertilizer readily enhances the agricultural yield but also deteriorates the quality of fertile soils. To combat such problems, ...

Abstract:
... PREMISE: Epiphytes are abundant in ecosystems such as tropical montane cloud forests where low‐lying clouds are often in contact with vegetation. Climate projections for these regions include more variability in rainfall and an increase in cloud base heights, which would lead to drier conditions in the soil and atmosphere. While recent studies have examined the effects of drought on epiphytic wate ...

Abstract:
... To address the challenge of predicting tomato yields in the field, we used whole-plant functional phenotyping to evaluate water relations under well-irrigated and drought conditions. The genotypes tested are known to exhibit variability in their yields in wet and dry fields. The examined lines included two lines with recessive mutations that affect carotenoid biosynthesis, zeta z²⁰⁸³ and tangerine ...
stomatalconductance, etc ; carbon dioxide; chlorophyll; leaves; peas; soil water; water shortages; Show all 7 Subjects
Abstract:
... Local damage to plants can induce fast systemic physiological changes through generation and propagation of electrical signals. It is known that electrical signals influence numerous physiological processes including photosynthesis; an increased plant tolerance to actions of stressors is a result of these changes. It is probable that parameters of electrical signals and fast physiological changes ...

... Zahara S, Carsono N, Sudirja R, Soleh MA. 2022. Tolerance response of varied tomato genotypes grown at excess manganese (Mn). Biodiversitas 23: 3209-3218. High Mn concentration in acidic soil has been known as a limiting factor of sustainable tomato production. In addition, the number of tomato cultivars available to be grown under such conditions is still limited. Therefore, this study tested the ...
stomatalconductance, etc ; air; carbon dioxide; ecosystems; gas exchange; photosynthesis; water use efficiency; Show all 7 Subjects
Abstract:
... Stomatal pores facilitate gaseous exchange between the inner air spaces of the leaf and the atmosphere. The pores open to enable CO₂ entry for photosynthesis and close to reduce transpirational water loss. How stomata respond to the environment has long attracted interest in modeling as a tool to understand the consequences for the plant and for the ecosystem. Models that focus on stomatal conduct ...

Abstract:
... Plant vitality is an important indicator of plant health. Previous studies have often assessed plant vitality using related physiological parameters, but few studies have examined the effects of changes in plant vitality on stem water content (StWC), which can be measured online, in real time, and nondestructively using a novel fringing impedance sensor. In the present study, the sensor calibratio ...
stomatalconductance, etc ; chlorophyll; flowering; grain yield; nitrogen; nutrient use efficiency; photosynthesis; winter wheat; Show all 8 Subjects
Abstract:
... Nitrogen (N) supply and seed rate (SR) are two essential factors that affect the accumulation and partitioning of N and dry matter (DM) and, therefore, grain yield (GY) and N use efficiency (NUE). The objective of this experiment was to optimize N application and SR to regulate wheat growth and increase both GY and NUE. The results revealed that net photosynthetic rate (Pn), stomatal conductance ( ...

Abstract:
... Paphiopedilum dianthum and P. micranthum are two endangered orchid species, with high ornamental and conservation values. They are sympatric species, but their leaf anatomical traits and flowering period have significant differences. However, it is unclear whether the differences in leaf structure of the two species will affect their adaptabilities to temperature. Here, we investigated the leaf ph ...

Abstract:
... Stomata play a central role in surface–atmosphere exchange by controlling the flux of water and CO₂ between the leaf and the atmosphere. Representation of stomatal conductance (gₛw) is therefore an essential component of models that seek to simulate water and CO₂ exchange in plants and ecosystems. For given environmental conditions at the leaf surface (CO₂ concentration and vapor pressure deficit ...

Abstract:
... Plant water use is an important function reflecting vegetation physiological status and affects plant growth, productivity, and crop/fruit quality. Although hyperspectral vegetation indices have recently been proposed to assess plant water use, limited sample sizes for established models greatly astricts their wide applications. In this study, we have managed to gather a large volume of continuous ...

Abstract:
... BACKGROUND: Against the background of a changing climate, the responses of functional traits of plateau wetland plants to increasing temperatures and CO₂ concentrations need to be understood. Hydraulic traits are the key for plants to maintain their ecological functions and affect their growth and survival. However, few studies have comprehensively considered the response strategies of wetland pla ...

Abstract:
... Optimizing row spacing can potentially improve yields when resources such as light and water are limited. Sugarcane in Louisiana is principally grown on rows spaced 1.8 m apart, but interest in planting on 2.4 m rows is increasing. In this study, we hypothesized that wider row spacing would have greater water availability. Soil moisture sensors were placed at 15, 30, and 45 cm depths in treatments ...

Abstract:
... Carbon dioxide concentration is likely to increase by 2–2.5 fold by the end of 21ˢᵗ century from its current level of 400 ppm due to anthropogenic activities mediated climate change. As yam is an important food and nutrition security crop, it is of paramount importance to assess the effect of climate change on the physiological processes especially photosynthetic efficiency to identify the climate ...

Abstract:
... Exposure of crops to high concentrations of ozone can cause substantial reductions in yield that pose a serious threat to global food security. Here we provide comprehensive estimates of yield losses for key crops across China between 2014 and 2017 attributed to ozone using a number of new approaches. We use an air quality model at 5 km resolution and crop-specific dose-response functions develope ...

Abstract:
... Drought limits crop productivity and reduces yield stability. Drought tolerance as a selection criterion in breeding programs requires the development of high-throughput, precise, and low-cost phenotyping strategies. We developed a mathematical model, based on biological approaches, for evaluating soybean plants’ response to drought under controlled growth conditions. The model describes the kinet ...
