The plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) regulates many key processes in plants including
the response to abiotic stress. ABA signal transduction consists of a double-negative …

Molecular control mechanisms for abiotic stress tolerance are based on the activation and
regulation of specific stress-related genes. The phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) is a key …

Global warming is predicted to have a negative effect on plant growth due to the damaging
effect of high temperatures. In order to address the effect of high temperature environments …

Isohydric plants maintain constant water potential through rapid stomatal closure, whereas
anisohydric plants only close their stomata at very low water potentials. However, distinctions …

The olive (Olea europaea L.) was domesticated in the Mediterranean area over 6000 years
ago and is currently one of the area’s most important oleaginous crops. Due to its economic, …

Climate change, with elevated temperatures throughout the year, affects many stages of the
reproductive growth and development of olives as well as oil quality at harvest. Although …

Climate change has been shown to have a substantial impact on agriculture and high
temperatures and heat stress are known to have many negative effects on the vegetative and …

The olive ( O lea europaea) is one of the most important oleaginous crops of the M editerranean
basin. Increased demand for olive oil creates a need for new olive varieties to help meet …

Currently, table olives, unlike oil olives, are harvested manually. Shortage of manpower and
increasing labor costs are the main incentives to mechanizing the harvesting of table olives. …

Mango malformation disease (MMD) caused by various Fusaria, including the fungus Fusarium
mangiferae, is difficult to diagnose and cannot be controlled effectively. In this study a …
