Download or read book Effect of High Temperature on Crop Productivity and Metabolism of Macro Molecules written by Amitav Bhattacharya and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2019-06-14 with total page 628 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Effect of High Temperature on Crop Productivity and Metabolism of Macro Molecules presents a comprehensive overview on the direct effect of temperatures defined as "high", a definition which increasingly includes a great number of geographic regions. As temperature impacts the number of base growth days, it is necessary to adapt plant selection, strategize planting times, and understand the expected impact of adaptive steps to ensure maximum plant health and crop yield. Global warming, climate change and change in environmental conditions have become common phrases in nearly every scientific seminar, symposium and meeting, thus these changes in climatic patterns constrain normal growth and reproduction cycles. This book reviews the effect of high temperature on agricultural crop production and the effect of high temperature stress on the metabolic aspects of macro molecules, including carbohydrates, proteins, fats, secondary metabolites, and plant growth hormones. Focuses on the effects of high temperature on agriculture and the metabolism of important macro-molecules Discusses strategies for improving heat tolerance, thus educating plant and molecular breeders in their attempts to improve efficiencies and crop production Provides information that can be applied today and in future research

Download or read book Climate Change and Plant Abiotic Stress Tolerance written by Narendra Tuteja and published by Wiley-Blackwell. This book was released on 2014-02-17 with total page 1208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this ready reference, a global team of experts comprehensively cover molecular and cell biology-based approaches to the impact of increasing global temperatures on crop productivity. The work is divided into four parts. Following an introduction to the general challenges for agriculture around the globe due to climate change, part two discusses how the resulting increase of abiotic stress factors can be dealt with. The third part then outlines the different strategies and approaches to address the challenge of climate change, and the whole is rounded off by a number of specific examples of improvements to crop productivity. With its forward-looking focus on solutions, this book is an indispensable help for the agro-industry, policy makers and academia.

Download or read book Soil Physical Conditions and Plant Roots written by J. Glinski and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-01-17 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a specialized monograph on soil physical conditions and root-system relations. It attempts to explain the importance of physical properties of soil by showing how they affect root growth and functions; and on the other hand, how roots themselves change their environment. Emphasis is placed on the interactive effects of soil physical factors. An attempt has been made to analyze the possibilities of the root system‘s modification by both soil and plant management.The book is addressed to research workers and advanced students in soil and plant sciences and may also be of interest to agronomists and related specialists.

Download or read book Influence of a Modified Pot in pot Strategy on Root Temperature and Growth of Rhododendron X Mrs G G Gerbing in Full Sun written by Brennan Whitehead and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rhododendron 'Mrs. G.G. Gerbing' liners were planted to test the influence of a pot-in-pot (PIP) full-sun strategy on root temperatures and growth when compared to a full sun above ground area (FS) and a 50% shade house (SH). The treatments for the (PIP) area included black weed barrier with and without middle line irrigation; and white weed barrier with and without middle line irrigation. The growth and root temperature data from the (PIP) system was compared to data from (FS) and (SH). Soil temperature readings were taken in the three areas at the hottest time of day during August. When statistically analyzed the four different treatments in the (PIP) study had no effect on plant growth. At the conclusion of the studies, (PIP) azaleas rated superior, while (FS) plants were small and (SH) plants were spindly and less dense.
