By means of meta‐analyses we determined how 70 traits related to plant anatomy,
morphology, chemistry, physiology, growth and reproduction are affected by daily light …

Abstract Ultraviolet-B radiation (280–315 nm), perceived by the plant photoreceptor UVR8,
is a key environmental signal that influences plant growth and development and can reduce …

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 …

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 …

Ultraviolet-B (UV-B) light plays a crucial role in plant–herbivorous arthropods interactions by
inducing changes in constitutive and inducible plant defenses. In particular, constitutive …

Mesembryanthemum crystallinum L.(Aizoaceae) is a drought‐and salt‐tolerant halophyte
that is able to endure harsh environmental conditions. Upon irradiation with high light …

The role of phenolics in UV-screening was investigated in berries of a white grape cultivar
(Vitis vinifera L. cv. Bacchus). Fluorescence microscopy revealed accumulation of phenolics …

The characteristics of UV-absorbing compounds, particularly soluble phenolics, were
studied in needles of 63-day-old seed-grown Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) seedlings of …

Solar radiation is a key environmental signal in regulation of plant secondary metabolism.
Since metabolic responses to light and ultraviolet (UV) radiation exposure are known to …

Ozone layer depletion increases the level of ultraviolet radiation reaching the earth's surface
affecting both natural and agricultural ecosystems, especially in the Southern Hemisphere …
