An increase in temperature and extreme heat stress is responsible for the global reduction in
maize yield. Heat stress affects the integrity of the plasma membrane functioning of …

Maize, third most important staple cereal crop across the globe, has been threatened with
different environmental constraints including heat and water deficit stress. Higher …

Chickpea is sensitive to heat stress and generally experiences high temperature during
reproductive phase. Therefore, terminal heat stress is key constraints for its production …

Polyamines (PA) are aliphatic amines found in all cells, including plant cells. Putrescine,
spermidine, and spermine are the most common PA in higher plants. PA are localized in cell …

Moisture stress induced by intra-season and terminal dry spells has been addressed as
principal constraint for maize cultivation across the rainfed environment. A multi-location …

Abiotic stresses are responsible for nearly 90% of all yield losses, around 40% of which are
due to drought. Most cereal crops, the mainstay of agricultural production in many countries …

Wheat crops are highly sensitive to high temperatures during reproductive and grain filling
phases. This study explored how hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) protects grain yield formation in …

Heat stress faced by the crop plants at seedling stage hinders its growth and if faced at
reproductive stage affects crop production. Globally, maize (Zea mays L.) loses a substantial …
