Abstract The impacts of climate change on worldwide crop production become increasingly severe. Thus, sustainable enhancements agricultural are needed. present study investigated the effects drought and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi wheat plants ( Triticum aestivum ) their interaction with aphids. Considering predicted scenarios, were exposed to well‐watered conditions, continuous (CD), or pulsed (PD) grown without (NM) (AM) fungi. Ear biomass harvest index evaluated when grains produced....
Numerous pesticides, including fungicides, are applied every year to crop plants. However, such application may affect the plant metabolism and thus quality. Strawberry is an economically important crop, but fruits highly susceptible, especially fungal diseases. In present study, effects of two Cuprozin progress SWITCH, on cultivars wild strawberry were tested, focusing primary (amino acids, (in)organic sugars, total phenolics) specialized metabolites (aroma volatiles), which determine fruit...
Fungicides are used in agriculture to protect crops from various fungal diseases. However, they may modulate the plants metabolism. Moreover, fungicides can accumulate environment and cause toxic effects on non-target organisms such as nectar microbes pollinators. Nectar contribute volatile profile of flowers influence pollinators behaviour. Thus, fungicide treatment could potentially affect pollination. In this study, we investigated floral attributes well behavioural impact bumblebees....
