Study of yield components under heat stress conditions in wheat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
High temperature tolerance can be characterised by measuring various plant productivity traits in different developmental stages. The present work investigated the effect of exposure to high temperature (30-35°C) at first node appearance, during ...

Transcriptome analysis identifies genes and co-expression networks underlying heat tolerance in pigs

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2020
Background Heat stress adversely affects pig growth and reproduction performance by reducing feed intake, weight gain, farrowing rate, and litter size. Heat tolerance is an important characteristic in pigs, allowing them to mitigate the negative effects ...

Heat stress response and heat stress transcription factors

open access: yesJournal of Biosciences, 1998
Expression of heat shock protein (HSP)-coding genes is controlled by heat stress transcription factors (Hsfs). They are structurally and functionally conserved throughout the eukaryotic kingdom. In addition to the DNA-binding domain with the helix-turn-helix motif essential for DNA recognition, three functional parts in the C-terminal activator domain ...

Arabidopsis HEAT SHOCK TRANSCRIPTION FACTORA1b overexpression enhances water productivity, resistance to drought, and infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Heat-stressed crops suffer dehydration, depressed growth, and a consequent decline in water productivity, which is the yield of harvestable product as a function of lifetime water consumption and is a trait associated with plant growth and development ...

Zinc oxide nanoparticles modulate flowering performance and systemically fortify biochemical defense in chrysanthemum under heat stress

open access: yesScientia Horticulturae
Heat stress detrimentally affects the yield and postharvest quality of chrysanthemum, a globally important ornamental crop. This study evaluated the efficacy of foliar-applied zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) as a protective treatment to enhance ...

Heat Stress Biomarker Amino Acids and Neuropeptide Afford Thermotolerance in Chicks

open access: yesThe Journal of Poultry Science, 2019
With global warming, heat stress is becoming a pressing concern worldwide. In chickens, heat stress reduces food intake and growth, and increases body temperature and stress responses.

Consideration of residual stress and geometry during heat treatment to decrease shaft bending [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In automotive industry, heat treatment of components is implicitly related to distortion. This phenomenon is particularly obvious in the case of gearbox parts because of their typical geometry and precise requirements.
