Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present multi-volume treatise has been planned to discuss important aspects of the crop-plant physiological aspects, viz., hormones, nutrients, cell membranes, and induced proteins, as related to different types of stresses each in separate volumes. Another type of stress which can be classed under biotic, environmental (sil) or chemical, viz., the stress of allelochemicals which has not been discussed before as a stress factor, will be discussed in a separate volume emphasizing its practical/ ap-plied aspects, rather than mentioning only the allelopathic effects. In this volume on Hormone Relations, different stresses have been arranged in order of their importance and work done.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As indicator of the time of maximum grain dry weight accumulation (t[indice]max) and a better description of physiological processes associated with grain growth termination in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) should assist cultivar improvement programs. Several cultivars were compared to determine t[indice]max and its relationship to visual changes and physiological activities of spikes. Two cubic polymonial functions fitted to kernel dry weigth accumulation data estimated t[indice]max more objectively than single cubic or quadratic models or a mean superation test. Loss of green color from all spike parts was the best indicator of t[indice]max. Kernels from different portions of spikes generally reached t[indice]max within one day. Green tissue at the botton of spikes assimilated carbon and supplied assimilate to upper portions after they had lost green color. Kernels depended on sources of assimilate other than spikes during final stages of growth, since spike net photosynthesis reached zero prior to t[indice]max. Spike gross photosynthesis continued until t[indice]max, partially offseting respiration. Spike respiration continued after t[indice]max, but kernel weights did not always decline. Geen tissue at the base of the flag leaf assimilated carbon wich was translocated to kernels after t[indice]max. Winter wheat produces meny shoots which fail to develop grain-bearing spikes. An understanding of the physiology of spikelles shoots and their influence on grain yields may suggest potential for cultivar improvement. Distribution of 14C-labelled assimilate from late-emerging tillers was monitored. The effects of tiller removal treatments and tiller development and survival patterns were also evaluated. When spikelless tillers were labelled with 14CO2 at jointing, over 50% of the label recovered at maturity was in parts other that the labelled tiller. Kernels contained less than 10%. The importance of kernels as a sink increased with later labelling and under stress. Some translocation occurred within 48 hours. Removal of small shoots at jointing decreased grain yields by decreasing kernel numbers. Shoot survival was positively correlated with spike and kernel numbers per unit area and grain yield. Lower-yielding cultivars with lower shoot survival invested more in larger shoots wich failed to produce spikes. Therefore, the positive contibution of spikeless shoots suggested by the 14CO2-labelling and tiller removal studies may not have compensated for the plants investiment in them.

This book was released on 2023-10-30 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drought and salinity are two of the foremost environmental factors which restrict plant growth and yield in several regions of the world, especially in arid and semi‐arid regions. Due to global climate change, drought and salinity are predicted to become more widespread and eventually result in reduced plant growth and productivity in numerous plant species. Exposure of plants to extreme drought or salt stress ceases plant growth, while plants exposed to moderate stress generally show a slight change in their growth performance. Scientists are facing the challenging task of producing 70% more food to feed an additional 2.3 billion people by 2050. Therefore, it is imperative to develop stress-resilient crops with better yield under drought and salt stress to meet the food requirements of upcoming generations.

This book was released on 2013-02-12 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crop growth and production is dependent on various climatic factors. Both abiotic and biotic stresses have become an integral part of plant growth and development. There are several factors involved in plant stress mechanism. The information in the area of plant growth and molecular mechanism against abiotic and biotic stresses is scattered. The up-to-date information with cited references is provided in this book in an organized way. More emphasis has been given to elaborate the injury and tolerance mechanisms and growth behavior in plants against abiotic and biotic stresses. This book also deals with abiotic and biotic stress tolerance in plants, molecular mechanism of stress resistance of photosynthetic machinery, stress tolerance in plants: special reference to salt stress - a biochemical and physiological adaptation of some Indian halophytes, PSII fluorescence techniques for measurement of drought and high temperature stress signal in crop plants: protocols and applications, salicylic acid: role in plant physiology & stress tolerance, salinity induced genes and molecular basis of salt tolerance mechanism in mangroves, reproductive stage abiotic stress tolerance in cereals, calorimetry and Raman spectrometry to study response of plant to biotic and abiotic stresses, molecular physiology of osmotic stress in plants and mechanisms, functions and toxicity of heavy metals stress in plants, submergence stress tolerance in plants and adoptive mechanism, Brassinosteroid modulated stress responses under temperature stress, stress tolerant in plants: a proteomics approach, Marker-assisted breeding for stress resistance in crop plants, DNA methylation associated epigenetic changes in stress tolerance of plants and role of calcium-mediated CBL-CIPK network in plant mineral nutrition & abiotic stress. Each chapter has been laid out with introduction, up-to-date literature, possible stress mechanism, and applications. Under abiotic stress, plant produces a large quantity of free radicals, which have been elaborated. We hope that this book will be of greater use for the post-graduate students, researchers, physiologist and biotechnologist to sustain the plant growth and development.

This book was released on 2012-06 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several morpho physiological traits are traditionally used as screening criteria for drought tolerance such as relative water content (RWC), stomatal index, water use efficiency (WUE) etc. Crop WUE can be improved by optimizing crop transpiration. Several workers have proposed carbon isotope discrimination (CID), ash content and canopy temperature depression (CTD) as selection criteria for transpiration efficiency (TE), which may serve as the surrogate measures for improvement in grain yield.To identify suitable physiological traits useful in wheat breeding under water stress environment is the major thrust area of present investigation. For this, Durum and aestivum genotypes were selected from the breeding material of ARI, Pune (MS, India).Experimental trials on Triticum durum were conducted under three different water regimes viz. residual soil moisture stress (RSMS), post anthesis water stress (PAWS) as limited irrigation (LI) and well watered (WW) conditions.Data were collected for agronomical and physiological characters. Soil water balance model 'BUDGET' (Raes et.al. 2006) has been used for deriving WUE using meteorological, rainfall and irrigation data of (2004-05)and(2006)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Agricultural, botanical, and social scientists from the four quarters of the world address the impact of climate change on crop productivity, some approaches to adapt plants to both biotic and abiotic stresses, and measures to reduce greenhouse gases. They cover predictions of climate change within the context of agriculture, adapting to biotic and abiotic stresses through crop breeding, sustainable and resource-conserving technologies for adapting to and mitigating climate change, and new tools for enhancing crop adaptation to climate change. Specific topics include economic impacts of climate change on agriculture to 2030, breeding for adaptation to heat and drought stress, managing resident soil microbial community structure and function to suppress the development of soil-borne diseases, and applying geographical information systems (GIS) and crop simulation modeling in climate change research.
