Drought (water deficits) and heat (high temperatures) stress are the prime abiotic
constraints, under the current and climate change scenario in future. Any further increase in …

Abiotic stresses are the most critical hurdle for the growth and development of the plants.
The abiotic stresses are salinity, heat, drought, flood, heavy metals and plant nutrients …

Abiotic environmental stresses negatively impact crop productivity and are major constraints
to global food security. As a consequence of global change, certain stress factors such as …

Canola (Brassica napus L.) is a major oilseed crop for edible and industrial uses. Climate
change, characterized by extreme heat and drought conditions, can affect canola seed yield …

Glucosinolates are a category of secondary products present primarily in species of the
order Capparales. When tissue is damaged, for example by herbivory, glucosinolates are …

Background Drought stress has a negative effect on both seed yield and seed quality in
Brassica napus (oilseed rape, canola). Here we show that while drought impairs the …

In the Lorraine region, major soils used for winter oilseed rape are calcareous. Across two
pot and two field experiments, we studied the influence of sulfur applied at different levels on …

Drought and heat stress are two dominant abiotic stress factors that often occur
simultaneously in nature causing oxidative damage in plants and thus decline in yield. The …

The Mediterranean region suffers of drought which affects plant behaviour regarding
biochemical responses. Accordingly, the effects of water deficit on growth, essential oil and …

The contents of ascorbic acid, glucosinolates, sulforaphane, anthocyanins, total phenolics,
the activity of myrosinase and phenylalanine ammonialyase (PAL) and the antioxidant …
