There is a need to reappraise the effects of UV‐B radiation on plant morphology in light of
improved mechanistic understanding of UV‐B effects, particularly elucidation of the UV …

Amongst the diversity of methods used by organisms to reduce damage caused by
ultraviolet (UV) radiation, the synthesis of UV-screening compounds is almost ubiquitous …

Interspecific competition in natural plant communities is highly dependent on nutrient
availability. At high levels of nutrient availability, competition is mainly for light. As light is a …

This paper provides an overview of existing literature on the ultraviolet-B (UV-B) radiation
effects on field crops. Earlier reviews on field crop responses to UV-B considered few …

The production of high quality fruits, vegetables and ornamental crops while employing
natural processes to maintain plant productivity, is an overarching goal of sustainable …

The photosynthetic apparatus of some plant species appears to be well-protected from direct
damage from UV-B radiation. Leaf optical properties of these species apparently minimizes …

Elevated solar UV-B radiation associated with stratospheric ozone reduction may exert
effects on terrestrial ecosystems through actions on plants, microbes, and perhaps on some …

The potential impacts of an increase in solar UV‐B radiation reaching the Earth's surface
due to stratospheric ozone depletion have been investigated by several research groups …

Climate change and extreme weather events affect plants and animals and the direct impact
of anthropogenic climate change has been documented extensively over the past years. In …

In a 2-year experiment, the evergreen shrubs Erica tetralix and Calluna vulgaris (dominant
on nutrient-poor heathland soils) and the perennial deciduous grass Molinia caerulea …
