Drought stress-induced physiological mechanisms, signaling pathways and molecular response of chloroplasts in common vegetable crops

Critical Reviews in Biotechnology, 2021
Drought stress is one of the most adverse abiotic stresses that hinder plants’ growth and productivity, threatening sustainable crop production. It impairs normal growth, disturbs water relations and reduces water-use efficiency in plants.

Irrigation management of European greenhouse vegetable crops

, 2020
In Europe, most greenhouse vegetable crops are grown in soil. Where soilless systems are used, apart from in The Netherlands, Belgium and France, they are mostly free-draining systems, in which nutrient solutions are not recirculated. Both soil-grown and

Nitrogen management of vegetable crops

, 2020
N fertilization is often viewed as a cheap insurance against yield loss in vegetable production because of the generally large added value, resulting in application of fertilizer N often in excess of actual crop demand.

Consequences of irrigation and fertigation of vegetable crops with variable quality water: Israel as a case study

, 2020
Water-scarcity in dry areas is driving agriculture towards increased utilization of marginal to poor quality water sources for irrigation. This includes groundwater and recycled wastewater that tend to be characterized by high levels of minerals and ...

Temperate vegetable crops

Scientia Horticulturae, 1993
Abstract Many vegetable crops are cultured in the temperate climate zones. The major vegetable crop species belong to 21 genera and eight families. Gene introduction in each of these crops requires reproducible and efficient methods for genetic transformation and plant regeneration.
