Plants react towards changes in their environment, which can be a result of biotic or abiotic
activities. Numerous studies have investigated the effects of abiotic stress on plants, and …

The opium alkaloids (morphine, codeine, thebaine, noscapine, and papaverine) have been
detected on poppy seeds; they are widely used by the food industry for decoration and flavor …

The response of plant development rate (including germination rate) to temperature might
be described as a non-linear function. We compared 3 non-linear regression models (Dent …

One of the challenging tasks for the researchers is to identify alternative renewable energy
feedstocks which can be used as a substitute for fossil fuel to meet the increasing demand …

The objective of this study was to estimate poppy plant height and capsule volume with
remote sensing using an Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS). Data were obtained from field …

The content of pharmaceutically important alkaloids (morphine, codeine, thebaine,
papaverine and narcotine) was analysed in the empty poppy capsules (poppy straw) of …

Improved prediction of poppy capsule volume is essential for optimal management of poppy
crop. In order to estimate poppy capsule volume accurately using remotely sensed imagery …

Opium poppy (Papaver somniferum L.) is currently an important agricultural commodity, with
the product being used in the food industry (seed) as well as in the pharmaceutical industry …

Poppy cultivation has a long tradition in Central Europe. Growing winter poppy instead of the
commonly grown spring poppy might increase seed yield, especially in the face of changing …

The opium poppy's ability to produce various alkaloids is both useful and problematic.
Breeding of new varieties with varying alkaloid content is therefore an important task. In this …
