Average rice grain weight decreases under a high night temperature condition, and the quality of rice grain becomes poor under either high night or high day temperature condition. The effects of exposing either panicle or vegetative parts to a high temperature on the grain weight and the rice gra...
High temperatures (up to 35 °C) were applied to plants of malting barley, Hordeum vulgare L. (' Schooner') for a period of 5 d during grain-filling. Heat treatment had a profound effect on the structure of the mature barley grain. There was evidence of degradation of endosperm storage ...
of J.curcas seedlings from Yuanyang,Lancang and Binchuan on the 16 th day under high temperature stress(45 degrees C)were 3.00,18.33 and 34.04 times higher than those under suitable temperature(25 degrees C).Comprehensive appraisal on these five physiological indices indicates that J.curcas ...
Effect of the length of high temperature exposures in the day on the growth and developmental response of tobacco plants Seedlings of flue cured tobacco (var. Bright Yellow) were exposed to high temperature of 43掳C for 1, 2 and 3 hours each in successive 14 days in daytime. The area of...

These changes are expected to have a great impact on agriculture in general and on crop phenology in particular. Great progress has been made in understanding the responses of plants to abiotic stress. There are inherent physical, morphological, and molecular limitations to the plant’s ability to...
UHI effects (as measured by daily land surface temperature) alone cannot explain the overall influence of urbanization on plant phenology, suggesting that urbanization also affects plant phenology via other mechanisms. Shorter plants with large specific leaf areas and early flower or leaf-out dates ...
During 8 weeks from first flowering tomato plants were grown at 17, 19, 21 and 23 C. Before and after this period the temperature at the 4 treatments was the same (18 C). Fruit growth was calculated from weekly measurements of fruit diameter of each fruit and a linear relation between ...
