Waterlogging is a significant abiotic stress that reduces the oxygen supply to roots in rhizosphere, impairing plant growth and development. Cowpea highly sensitive waterlogging, their grain yield affected by genotype stage. Understanding physiological responses of cowpea waterlogging crucial for developing strategies improve crop waterlogged environments. In this two-year field trial, we quantified impact ten days on morpho-physiological attributes, seed components, quality two genotypes...
Waterlogging induces growth and developmental changes in sensitive crops such as cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) during early plant development. However, information on the physiological mechanisms underpinning response of plants to waterlogging conditions is limited. Here, we investigated effects 10-day stress morphology, photosynthesis, chlorophyll fluorescence parameters two cultivars seedlings. hampered cultivars' growth, biomass accumulation, photosynthetic capacity. Both also developed...
Waterlogging is an important environmental stress limiting the productivity of crops worldwide. Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L.) particularly sensitive to waterlogging during reproductive stage, with a consequent decline in pod formation and yield. However, little known about critical processes underlying cowpea’s responses stage. Thus, we investigated key parameters influencing carbon fixation, including stomatal conductance (gs), intercellular CO2 concentration, chlorophyll content,...
The impact of salt stress is becoming more prevalent each year, largely due to the effects climate change. Limited availability salt-free water rising concern for hydroponics lettuce production. Despite evidence supporting stress-induced quality losses and physiological changes, studies on romaine salt-stress tolerance are limited. This study examined mechanism underlying sodium chloride (NaCl) (0, 50, 100, 150 mM) its growth nutrition at late-rosette early head-formation stages. Results...
Due to climate change, the attainment of global food security is facing serious challenges in meeting growing demand. Abiotic stresses are foremost limiting factors for agricultural productivity. However, not much information available on effect multiple abiotic morphological and biochemical aspects kale mustard. Therefore, an experiment was designed study effects UV-B radiation, CO2 concentration, high temperature growth, yield, biochemistry two Brassica species, namely B. oleracea L. var....
ISHS VIII International Symposium on Human Health Effects of Fruits and Vegetables - FAVHEALTH 2021 Short-term waterlogging kale (Brassica oleracea L. var. acephala) plants causes a decrease in carotenoids chlorophylls while increasing nutritionally important glucosinolates
Temporal and spatial variations in ozone levels temporal changes solar radiation greatly influence ultraviolet incidence to crops throughout their growth, yet the interactive effects of CO2 UV-B on Basil production under sunlight environmental conditions has not been studied. ‘Genovese’ plants grown sunlit plant growth chambers were subjected a combination supplemental (0 10 kJ m−2d−1) ambient (420 ppm) elevated (720 treatments for 38 days after 14 germination. caused decrease basil stem...
Potential global climate change-related impacts on crop production have emerged as a major research priority and societal concern during the past decade. Future changes, natural human-induced, projected in implications for regional production. The simultaneous occurrence of several abiotic stresses instead stress conditions is most detrimental to crops, this has been long known by farmers breeders. green leafy vegetables Brassicaceae family especially gained attention due their many health...

Kale is a leafy green that contains nutritiously favorable secondary metabolites, like glucosinolates and carotenoids, important mineral nutrients Ca, Mg, P, K, Fe. Limited information available on how small changes in irrigation applications using sensor-based affects plant growth. In this study, 'Winterbor' kale was grown containers with soilless media schemes applying three treatments –overwatered, optimal, underwatered – the greenhouse at North Mississippi Research Extension Center,...
