Engineering Stress Tolerance in Maize [PDF]

open access: yesOutlook on Agriculture, 1998
A wide range of environmental stresses (such as chilling, ozone, high light, drought, and heat) can damage crop plants, with consequent high annual yield losses. A common factor in all these unrelated adverse conditions, called oxidative stress, is the enhanced production of active oxygen species (AOS) within several subcellular compartments of the ...

Phenotypic evidence for local adaptation to heat stress in the marine snail Chlorostoma (formerly Tegula) funebralis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Southern California (USA) populations of the intertidal marine snail Chlorostoma (formerly Tegula) funebralis generally occupy warmer climates and are exposed to high air temperatures during low tides more often than northern California populations ...

JUNGBRUNNEN1 confers drought tolerance downstream of the HD-Zip I Transcription factor AtHB13 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Low water availability is the major environmental factor limiting growth and productivity of plants and crops and is therefore considered of high importance for agriculture affected by climate change.

Adaptation to high ethanol reveals complex evolutionary pathways [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Tolerance to high levels of ethanol is an ecologically and industrially relevant phenotype of microbes, but the molecular mechanisms underlying this complex trait remain largely unknown.

Identification of drought, heat and combined drought and heat tolerant donors in maize (Zea mays L.) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Low maize yields and the impacts of climate change on maize production highlight the need to improve yields in eastern and southern Africa. Climate projections suggest higher temperatures within drought-prone areas.

Association Mapping of Drought Tolerance Indices in Ethiopian Durum Wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. durum)

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Ethiopia is a major producer of durum wheat in sub-Saharan Africa. However, its production is prone to drought stress as it is fully dependent on rain, which is erratic and unpredictable.

Stress echocardiography: safety and tolerability [PDF]

open access: yesCardiovascular Ultrasound, 2013
Abstract Background Stress echocardiography is a valuable tool for the noninvasive diagnosis of ischemic heart disease. Despite its widely use in the clinical practice, safety and side effects profile have never been evaluated in Moroccans. The aim To assess the safety and

Breeding for resistance to insect-transmitted viruses in barley – an emerging challenge due to global warming

open access: yesJournal für Kulturpflanzen, 2009
Due to global warming longer periods of higher temperature in autumn and winter are expected which may result in an increasing importance of insect-transmitted viruses.
