AbstractBackground and Aims. Root exudation and rhizodeposition are critical pathways for plant carbon (C) allocation to soil, influencing soil organic C s

The mountain jewelflower inhabits a wide swath of California and Oregon, from summer-scorched foothills to high mountains where snow falls during winter. But it is already suffering from climate chang...

Background Salinity is a major abiotic stress that negatively affects nearly all plant species at all stages of growth. Drought and poor-quality irrigation cause high soil salinity and salt accumulati...

Heading and removing all lateral branches when almond trees are planted is a common practice in California. Establishing a root system post-planting i…

Botany One interviews Dr Chris Thorogood, who aims to foster a greater care and attention for plants through science and art.

The serine/threonine protein kinase LlSAPK2 enhances thermotolerance in lily (Lilium longiflorum) by phosphorylating and stabilizing the transcription factor LlbZIP46, which activates heat shock fact...

The University of Zurich is the largest university in Switzerland and one of the most prominent in Europe. For research purposes the Biovision Center and Flow Cytometry Facility offer services to supp...

Severe heatwaves in commonly hot regions could leave farmers unable to work outside, with livestock mortality rates expected to rise

Climate change threatens millions of farmers worldwide by exposing crops to multiple concurrent or sequential environmental stresses such as drought, heat, waterlogging, and diseases. Although crops ...

Plants face various environmental stresses, to which they respond in different ways. Due to climate change, it is expected that plants will encounter increased phases of drought and changes in herbiv...

Multifactorial stress combination triggers a complexity-dependent molecular and metabolic reprogramming.
