From a questionnaire survey on thermal sensation and comfort of Indonesians and Japanese, we found that the thermal descriptor “cool” in tropical indigenes con...
such as global warming, are gradually recognized; when the ambient temperature increases to the extent that it causes heat stress in plants, agricultural production will inevitably be affected. Therefore, several issues associated with heat stress in crops urgently need to be solved. Rice is one of...
Their findings indicated that acclimatized individuals with better physiological function to tolerate heat stress should be more resistant to performance losses than non-acclimatized individuals.
