TL;DR: Heat led to a sun-type adaptation response of the photosynthesis pigment apparatus for the Nagcarlang genotype, but not for Campbell-28, and thus an increase in chlorophyll a/b ratio and a decrease inchlorophyll/carotenoid ratio were shown in Nag carlang stressed plants.

TL;DR: Potted tomato plants (Lycopersicon esculentum mill. cv. Amalia) were submitted to three different treatments: control (C) plants were maintained at day/night temperature of 25/18 °C; preconditioned plants (PS) were sent to two consecutive periods of 4 d each, of 30/23 and 35/28 °C before being exposed to a heat stress (40/33 °C lasting 4 d) and non-preconditioned (S) plants are maintained in the same conditions as the C plants and exposed to the

TL;DR: Deficit irrigation under nursery conditions induced a suite of morphological and physiological adaptations that might allow a considerable capacity to adapt to adverse conditions after transplanting.

TL;DR: In the salt-treated plants, the gradual closure of the stomata over a wide range of Ψmd may be important in maintaining some level of photosynthesis.

TL;DR: In this paper, the use of trunk diameter fluctuations and their derived parameters for irrigation scheduling in woody crops is reviewed and the strengths and weaknesses of these continuously measured plant-based water stress indicators compared with other discretely measured indicators for diagnosing plant water status in young and mature trees are discussed.
