The interaction and the interplay of climate change with oil palm production in the Southeast
Asia region are of serious concern. This particularly applies in Malaysia due to its rank as …

Consequences of drought stress in crop production systems are perhaps more deleterious
than other abiotic stresses under changing climatic scenarios. Regulations of physio …

This chapter proposes that whether reactive oxygen species (ROS) act as signal transducing
or damaging molecules is mainly dependent on their quality and second, on their quantity …

Drought stress is considered the most adverse factor restricting plant survival, growth, and
productivity. The identification of the key adaptive mechanisms to drought stress is essential …

Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is a highly productive crop economically significant for
food, cosmetics, and biofuels. Abiotic stresses such as low water availability, salt …

Drought tolerance was examined in two oil palm hybrids (BRS Manicoré and BRS C 2501)
grown in large pots and subjected to long-term drought (57 days) and rehydration …

Oil palm crops are the most important determinant of the agricultural economy within the
segment of oilseed crops. Oil palm growing in their natural habitats are often challenged …

This research was conducted to study the performance of biparental dura× pisifera (D× P)
progenies and their parental genetic origins on fruit set and yield components. Twenty-four …

Low water availability predicted under climate change is a major abiotic factor limiting plants
growth and productivity. In this study a greenhouse experiment was conducted on three …

Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is a oilseed crop of great economic importance drastically
affected by abiotic stresses. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play crucial roles in transcription and post …
