Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Phenotypic Differentiation Between Highland and Coastal Quinoa Under Cold Stress Conditions
Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is a genetically diverse Andean crop valued for its nutrition and adaptability to varied agro‐climatic conditions with potential for cultivation in European and Mediterranean, particularly on marginal lands. Low temperatures during early sowing can impair germination, while delayed sowing increases the risk ...

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Perennial crops are continually wounded throughout cultivation. To limit pathogen infection and tissue dehydration, plants have evolved a range of wound responses that protect damaged tissues. These responses include changes in gene expression and the synthesis of protective compounds such as polyphenols.

The kiwifruit (Actinidia sp.) vine root system: Responses to vine manipulations [PDF]
, 2012 The root system is a significant component of whole-plant biomass in kiwifruit vines and is likely to be a considerable carbohydrate sink. Seasonal trends in root growth were investigated to infer seasonal fluctuations in root carbohydrate demand.

Plant Biology, EarlyView.Tcrit (critical temperature) may reflect early, adaptive photoprotective downregulation of PSII in Quercus ilex, whereas in Acer campestre and Fraxinus ornus, it may more closely correspond to the onset of thermal PSII vulnerability. Abstract Increasing temperatures impair photosynthetic apparatus by damaging photosystem II (PSII) efficiency.

Lipidomics of orchid seeds: from development to storage
Plant Biology, EarlyView.The study tracked lipid changes from pollination to storage in two orchid species. Although both were desiccation‐tolerant and storable, differences in saturated and unsaturated fatty acid proportions during development led to different moisture contents and germination capacities.

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Sea‐level‐rise and alterations to natural hydrology have contributed to coastal land loss. To combat coastal land loss and maintain the ecosystem services provided by marshes, marsh creation has been broadly implemented. Marsh creation projects can be performed in conjunction with the construction of elevated terrestrial ridges that seek to mimic ...
